GREAT MOMENTS IN BAD ALIBIS

[defrog]

Yr Traditional Marriage lede of the day:



Both are Tea Party Republicans. Both are married with children.

As I understand it, the specifics of the “cover story” was allegedly Courser’s idea.

So basically, Courser decided that it would be less of a scandal if everyone found out he was paying men to have gay sex with him (which is illegal – the paid part, I mean) than if he and Gamrat were caught cheating on their respective spouses.

I can’t really add anything to that.

NOTE: The above screenshot is slightly outdated – Courser has resigned, and Gamrat has been expelled.

I like this part:

In perhaps the strangest twist to his bizarre scandal, following the committee recommendation, Gamrat claimed she only admitted guilt because House leaders promised her censure in a written agreement if she copped to the charges leveled at her by investigators. Now she says much of her confession was untrue.

And that’s why she thinks she shouldn’t be kicked out office.

Res ipsa loquitur.

Get out of my house,
