Politico- Rep. David Wu has been accused of an “unwanted sexual encounter” with the teenage daughter of a longtime friend, the latest scandal to engulf the troubled Oregon Democrat. The Oregonian reported the person involved graduated from high school in 2010 but did not mention her age. She and her family declined to speak to the newspaper. Shortly before the 2010 elections, Wu began behaving erratically, according to The Oregonian and other news outlets. Wu sent a bizarre picture of himself in a tiger costume to his staffers, and some of them urged him to seek psychiatric help. More than a half dozen staffers and campaign consultants quit as Wu bombarded them with troubling phone calls and emails.
These latest allegations against Wu add to the growing list of sex scandals that have rocked Capitol Hill over the past two years. Former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) recently resigned from Congress following a national firestorm over lewd photos he sent to women he met over the Internet. Former Rep. Christopher Lee (R-N.Y.) was caught sending a topless online photo and also resigned. Former Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.) had an affair with one of his campaign aides, who also happened to be the wife of his deputy chief of staff. Ensign stepped down from office on May 3. And ex-Rep. Eric Massa (D-N.Y.) quickly departed Capitol Hill in March 2010 after POLITICO reported he was under investigation by the House Ethics Committee for allegations of sexual harassment of male staffers.
Seriously. Lets get this thing going. I'd enjoy this at least three times as much as a Superbowl box pool, and there is literally no chance another scandal doesn't break before Labor Day. Charge like a dollar a square, hope like hell the congressman you pull is a perv. Tell me you wouldn't be interested in this. Hell, Congress itself should set this up. Use some of the proceeds to pay down that trillion dollar debt they keep bitching about. We get it, you guys fucked up and if you don't figure out some way to fix it, we're going to go back to donkeys roaming the streets with pans clanging on their sides. Maybe we need that. This whole debt thing shouldn't be this difficult to fix anyway. Even Fredo had a guy to cook the books.
Last thing: Politico needs to chill with the hating on Wu's tiger suit. Elections are held like two weeks from Halloween, and an Asian dude dressed as a tiger is gonna kill it. Especially at a High School party. Just showing his staffers some swag. Nothing weird about that at all.
