Fist Fighting and wife stealing with Shadegg

Friday Funnies. Here's a little late afternoon fun.  Could this be a small clue as to why Arizona's John Shadegg might be getting out of politics? Howie finds this passage from of all places-Regnery:

DownwithTyranny:

It's a page (102) from John L. Jackley's book Below The Beltway. Ostensibly it's just another anti-Clinton/anti-Democratic Party hit piece published by far right vanity press Regnery. The brief part about Shadegg, however, is deadly-- and not to Clinton or any Democrats. It details the adultery, sex, and violence scandal that Shadegg-- and even more so an enraged Mrs. Shadegg-- do not want to come to light and is exactly why he retired and won't be running for re-election to Congress, nor for poor old McCain's Senate seat...Oy! A fist fight-- with Christensen's wife, naked, in the room!

It's from Regnery so you know where I stand on that organization, but if it's true---Wow.  And if it's not true then I think Shadegg needs to take some sort of action. You just gotta love those David Vitter "family values" type candidates.

first!

Oy is right! And Ouch.

Are there pictures that go with the narrative or do we just have to use our imagination?

Well, I can see it all now and it's better than a Laurel and Hardy film, and that's going some.

Naked fist fighting.

That IS traditional. Goes back to the first Olympics.

But the purity of the sport just got lost somewhere along the way.

I think all that "family values in action" took place about 12 years ago, so he's had time to repent, accept god, and do it again. Who knows!?

Also Meredith was apparently having affairs with a bunch of other Congressmen

I guess this just goes to show that not all elected republicans are gay.

I would have waited more than 29 minutes after Nicole wrote her headline before posting this, but that's just me. It's your sandbox.

Perhaps after he retires, he will change the spelling and pronunciation of his name to "Shagged."

;)

Same people?

In fact, Christensen proved to be very well-financed - a source of surprise and controversy in the district. The Christensens' principal income source in 1993 was an annuity the candidate's wife - the former Meredith Stewart Maxfield - received from Stewart Title, her family's mega-business in Texas. The Maxfields are close associates of the multi-billion dollar Hunt family; a fundraiser for Christensen was held in the owner's skybox of Lamar Hunt at Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium. A lawyer who practices out of her home, Meredith Christensen has never tried to conceal the fact she is the source of the household's wealth: she recently lampooned the fact in a skit at Omaha's Gridiron Dinner.

I wouldn't trust anything that came out of Regnery publishing and if they put out a hit piece on a Republican I have twice as much reason not to trust it.

Yeah, I get you. Spreading rumors of republican marital infidelity is one way to fight the clear public evidence that they are all gay pedophiles.

it's not their "Family values" they want to look at

Ho ho, hee hee, ha ha HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I gotta get my middle-aged peepers checked.

At first I thought it said fist-f**king.

Hey CD. Check out the 2 links I posted. You tell me if there's any reason not to trust what's said there. Because what's in the Regnery piece sounds pretty likely.

Thats why I don't get flu shots. My brother always got them and always got the flu. That may be what caused him to have a heart attack and die. I can't say for sure, but I'm still alive. I think.

You have a right to be jealous. I Shadegg her rotten.

Headline & first 2 paragaphs:
Md. Lawmaker Resigns After Police Seize His Computer

By Philip Rucker
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, February 15, 2008; 2:38 PM

Longtime Maryland Del. Robert A. McKee (R-Washington) resigned today after authorities searched his Hagerstown home and seized his personal computer and images from the Internet.

McKee, 58, has served in the House of Delegates since 1995. For 29 years, he has served with Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Washington County, a children's mentorship program, most recently as the group's executive director. He announced he also would resign from that post.

Somthing foul is afoot.

Muahahahaha family values.
What have family values meant so far? Hmm... that's easy: hypocritical pedophilia, hypocritical gay-bashing, blatant sexism, hypocritical promiscuity, and that's just dealing with relationships...
It's be funny to see this episode on tape. With an "explanation" from Shadegg of course.

Possible. Found this article Shadegg is asked to stay by 130 Republicans in Congress. Who would want him to leave?

From the book except it sounds like the "yelped" lady wasn't very welcomed by the Republican establishment. And Christensen doesn't sound like he's very useful (except for raising money).

If it is a hit piece (and I can't deny that strong possibility) it sounds like a inter-family one.

I'm thinking of becoming a Republican so I can have illicit sex too.

Was it a fist fight or a sword fight?

Man, why to the Republicans get to have all the fun? All we "Dims" have is boring candidates that just sleep with their wives. YAWN. Where is the gay public restroom sex? The nakid fist fights? Stalking pages? The gay preachers. And the corruption and graft and the bribery and yachts and the over the top lying about... well... everything. All the Dems have in the past 20 or 30 years is Gary Hart, a blow job in the Oval Office and William Jefferson. Hell, the Republicans more than match that every week. Without the Republicans there'd be nothing interesting to watch on TV News.

And I think what I love best about the GOP is the humongous gigantic balls they have, in spite of all the evidence against it, is to claim they are the "Family Values" party.

So, no vetting Obama?

Yep. He went in there and wrestled with all kinds of guys. He wasn't too good, though. This one black guy had him pinned down for fifteen minutes straight!

If all those Congressman wanted him to stay and Regnery publishing is putting out a hit piece on him some dirty game is being played.

I think this passage may illustrate why the 'conservative' political stance doesn't survive very long, yet keeps reappearing, again and again (like cockroaches)
There is a depth of hatred, for self, for others, that promotes a destructive mindset. They are like a pack of starving wolves....as ready, willing, and able to tear into each other as into the opposition.
Yet, as like to starving wolves as they are, there is a roachlike element as well, since no matter how often they destroy themselves, they are never eradicated, and will eventually reappear.

God, please inspire somebody to develop a can of RAID that can eradicate conservatives like roaches?

I'm laughing so hard, it sounds like it looked like a scene from Benny Hill!

We bought it from Chinese sweatshop and then it was recalled due to lead paint.

Just for clarification. Who do you think is playing this dirty game?

Myself I see this gossip story, true or not, to be an example of republicans indifference to fighting dirty, unfairly, below the belt... not something you catch democrats doing...

P.S. I missed that DownwithTyranny (DWT) already noted the letter by the 130 republicans. I also missed the comment "But what they don't know is about the information an Arizona-based Republican operative passed DWT this morning".

I don't know what Regnery publishing is up to but considering how much damage they've done in the past I'll not help them destroy this guy.

Your point?
I thought so.

If the right wing "traditional values" set gets their way, wife beating won't just be a good idea, but the law!

some rats leave the ship

some rats eat their own

the latter are so much more entertaining

pass the popcorn ...

The easy term is sex-drugs-rock and roll. Cut the rock and roll, then add politics. Witnessing DC, as I had . Nothing, no thing, surprises me. The 56 to 1 ratio was a sailor's dream, and the closer you got to the seat of power, the higher the quality of beef, and very easy pickings there was, for a preditor. But, it was always a little frightening how the hunter could become the prey. You didn't question if the refridgerator light was on. It was always on, and burning brighter than Vegas neon. Talk of Baha California during Spring break draws a smerk, because there is no break in DC. So, there was an altercation. Goes with the turf. Pardon me, I have to hit the gym, and the cleaners. I feel a vacation to DC coming on, and one has to be ready.
