Name That Party! Oregon Mayor in Sex Scandal

Sphere: Related Content

Welcome to our latest edition of Name That Party!

It's fairly easy to play; I'll give you a scandal and you tell me if the culprit is a Democrat or Republican:

Portland Mayor Sam Adams remained out of the public eye as City Hall work went on without him Thursday, but he said Portlanders should expect a decision "within days" about whether he'll resign or fight for his job.

He spent the day on "discussions of a personal nature" with people such as his pastor and his mentor, former Mayor Vera Katz.

...Adams, 45, said Monday he had a sexual relationship with an 18-year-old legislative intern in 2005 but lied about it and persuaded the young man to lie about it, too, in 2007 as he began his campaign for mayor.


Read the whole article and see if they tell you what party the man belongs to. Shocka, he's a Democrat.

Jack Ryan was a Republican and was eviscerated for propositioning his own wife, Larry Craig was arrested for tapping his foot and every other Republican that gets arrested has the "R" thrown next to their names in the headline. Not so with Democrats.

Here's a guy who may have had a sexual relationship with a minor (but definitely had a sexual relationship with an intern) and they don't even disclose his party affiliation.

I find it funny that the only time liberals seek advice from their "pastor" is when they are in trouble.

TO ALL OF THE 'FACEBOOK' SAM ADAMS SYCOPHANTS:

The polite and proper way to refer to the mayor of a city is, "The Honorable Mayor of Portland, Oregon, Sam Adams."

The title presupposes the person so addressed is "Honorable."

What his obsequious and sycophantic associates are saying, in effect, is a 42 year old man using the power of his position, in the larger community, to target a confused 17 year old boy to groom for sex; having sex with him; lying to the community about having sex with him; getting the boy to lie to the community about the relationship; promising a reporter, who was digging into the ugly truth of the matter, a public job in exchange for her support and silence - then bringing her aboard, is "HONORABLE." It IS NOT HONORABLE! It IS a series of very serious CRIMES!

Common sense, history, and the law says that an admitted liar, cheat, thief, and veritable "chicken hawk" cannot hold any public office of trust and profit.

Sam Adams, and his kindred spirits, would have the rest of us believe that it is quite alright to have such people head up our vital public offices. Well, it is not!

It does not matter that there are a disproportionate number of such people stealthily ensconced in such positions.

What does matter is that good and honorable people throw them out and prosecute them whenever and wherever they are found.

Author's Note: I am no longer a republican nor a democrat. Those 'parties' left the planet a long time ago.
