The list just keeps adding up! Last year it was the sanctimonious Reverend “you’ll be great like me“ Ted Haggard and the pedophiliac Congressman “don’t forget to measure for me“ Mark Foley; in July we got the racist State Rep. “I’m about to become a statistic here“ Bob Allen; two months ago we had a laugh about the restroom-cruising “I am not gay” Senator Larry Craig; now, joining the circus of God fearing, moralizing, gay bashing Republicans whose hypocrisy yet again got exposed is State Rep. Richard Curtis, who resigned on Wednesday after details of his encounter with a male prostitute came to light.
