Romney Co-Chair Resigns after Allegations of Same-Sex Relationship with Immigrant

Somebody say "Song"?

To the tune of "The Brady Bunch".

Here's the story of a guy named Jose'
he had a green card issued by the USA.
All he wanted was a friend, and a lover,
and yes he is quite gay.

Here's the story, of a cop named Babeu,
who was busy being Sheriff as we know,
he was a gay man, living in the closet,
even while out on patrol.

Til the one day our gay migrant met this fellow,
and they knew it wouldn't be a one night stand,
that they'd meet out in the desert dark and quiet,
to get to know each other man to man.

That's the way Babeu likes it man to man!

"I hope they write a county song about this …"

LOL

LOL

laughs with coffee, thank you Ian

(Mean: I was thinking more like --

Sitting on a cock cuz' I'm gay …)

Don't get me wrong, folks. There's lots of funny here, but...yours truly isn't finding anything humorous with the sheriff's sexual persuasion or that of his immigrant lover. There's not a thing wrong or funny about being gay. But being a holier than thou hypocrite? That's funny.

Cop commits blackmail crime = hypocrite

Conservative republican man is a closet gay = hypocrite

Anti-immigrant public official having affair with immigrant = hypocrite

Seriously, the sheriff's sexual persuasion is his business. But his hypocritical politics vs. his hidden lifestyle and his law enforcement obligations vs. his alleged blackmail...wow, this dude is a mess. If his politics weren't built around passing moral judgement on others, I'd feel sorry for him.

Ian, I think there's a risk involved when public officials live a lie. After all, blackmail is a two-way street, and when sex is involved (especially with a foreign national) there's a risk that it could be a "honey trap".

A "honey trap" is when a tryst occurs in which the public official is desperate to keep things discreet (sound familiar?) and the trapper recruits the trappee for nefarious purposes.

Sheriff Babeu is (for the moment) the Sheriff of Pinal County. I know exactly where that is because it's about a 45-minute drive from my house. I live in Phoenix, Arizona, in the county right next door (that would be Maricopa County).

US Interstate 8 is a major trafficking route for Mexican drug cartels looking to move drugs through Arizona. Parts of I-8 are a mere hundred miles from the US Mexico border.

Wouldn't the drug cartels just LOVE LOVE LOVE (AMOR AMOR AMOR) to have a Sheriff in that area in their pocket? Danged straight they would!

Such secrets are begging for Honey Traps and as such, they risk compromising the safety of the citizens of this nation.

But, the probable fact is that he wouldn't have gotten elected in the first place had he been open about it. Personally, I don't care whether he is or isn't, it's the dishonesty about it that would prevent me from voting for him.

They are just high on life and the Bible.

Which means that the sheriff is living a life nearly the complete opposite of what the GOP/TP claim/proclaim as their platform.

that's almost always the way. i haven't met a republican in real life that really lives a "republican" life. And yes, that includes having abortions - sometimes multiple ones.

This guy is not just a volunteer, he is actually running for congress!

But, IOKIYAR

I guess we'll find out who the Teapublicans hate more, illegals or homosexuals.

Well Well we will see just how fair and balanced a certain media outlet is.

After harping for months on Weiner sending photos to women, lying about it, and claiming he was hacked, so far there is no stories about BaBeu other than supporting his denial of the allegations. Babeu sent sexy photos, lied about it, and has claimed his site was hacked.

he was a guest on Hannity when he was attacking immigrants will he be asked to return now that he loves immigrants. not even a reference to the new story.

Nothing on Rush.

nothing I can find on O'Reilly

Don't hold your breath hippy. And if they report the story, they will have a (D) after his name under the photo and the story.

sending naked photos, lying, claimed hacking, etc

A lot of folks on the right like to disparage and dismiss the New Times, (Village Voice Media,) for the sole reason of being liberal/left leaning; however, they have broke stories stories like this more than once. Then again, maybe that's the real reason. They also have a good archive of material on that worthless clown in brown Arpaio dating back to the late 1990's.

You call that left leaning? Calling the Phoenix New Times left leaning is rather like calling King Tut a little bit dead. The most damning thing for me about the credibility of the New Times are the rather lurid ads for thinly disguised prostitution. I'm no prude, I was in the US Navy for 8 years and seen most everything a sailor sees, but the Phoenix New Times ads are still way over the top.

We don't have the greatest luck with Sheriffs here in Arizona. How good is your memory, MC Resident? Remember who came before Sheriff Joe Arpaio? I do.

Sheriff Tom Agnos was driven from office in disgrace over the Tuscon Five, I'm talking about the Buddhist Temple Murders and good old Sheriff Agnos getting a hot tip (from a guy in a mental institution) about five guys in Tuscon he said shot the monks in the Wat Promkunaram Temple.

Under international pressure to solve this dastardly crime, Tom Agnos rounded up these unlikely suspects and proceeded to beat confessions out of them. All five confessed to murders they never committed under the hamfisted interrogative techniques of Sheriff Agnos and when it turned out that the confessions were both false and coerced, well, that was the end of Sheriff Agnos.

Yep, we get some doozies for Sheriffs. Our governors here in Arizona are about a parade of pathetic polecats too.

I've lived here on and off since the early 1980's, (being active duty, and then married to active duty kept me away until we came back for good in 2000,) and remember that it was the handling of the Temple murders that did Agnos in. The murders actually happened while I was stationed at Yokota (Tokyo;) but, I was back for a couple of years from 93-95 when I married my wife and packed up to join her at Offutt AFB (Omaha, and my second time there.) As the Internet expanded, so did my access to local information even when I wasn't here. Yes, the "good" politician has been few and far between.

Only the homophobic ones.
