A high-level aide to California Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer has been charged in federal court with receiving and distributing child pornography.
The aide, Jeff Rosato, 32, was arrested last Friday. Boxer's office fired him that same day, as soon as it learned about the charges.
Rosato appeared in federal court in Virginia on Wednesday and was released to home detention on condition he not interact with children or use a computer. He was not required to post any bail or bond money but was being told to undergo medical treatment.

What did Babs know, and when did she know it?
Stupid is as stupid does.............
e-mail buddy to Bernie Ward?
Hopefully “Uncle Jeff” never babysat for Hillary’s nephew.
His screen name was “Palomino”
(Obscure reference.)
Isn’t that grounds for promotion?
Yes, I know that is theoretically the other ditz.
I know this is naive on my part, but wouldn’t it be nice if the GOP starting screaming “bloody murder” on this to start painting rats for what they are. This reflects badly on Boxer, and we have more than enough examples of rats doing less than honorable things, think Barney Franks and William Jefferson.
Why not start hitting the rat brand now?
Such irony.
Democrats + California = Bad News
interesting that they fired him immediately. Under normal circumstance you expect someone to be put on leave pending the outcome of the case. By firing him post haste one gets the impression that they may have known what he was dooing prior to getting caught. And they did nothing about it.

Barbara Boxer....
Oh yeah, she’s the “innocent until proven guilty” broad, right?
Hey! That’s a resume enhancer to Libs!
Wasn’t Bernie Ward also affiliated with Boxer somehow?
Fired when caught...
Boxer seems to have a knack for finding these kinds of guys.
Bernie Ward was an aide to Boxer when she was a congresswoman.
Bernie Ward, the most prominent liberal voice on Bay Area talk radio for more than two decades, admitted Thursday to distribution of child pornography by e-mail in a plea deal that will send him to federal prison for at least five years.
Ward worked as a schoolteacher, served as legislative assistant for then-Rep. Barbara Boxer for three years and was hired by KGO in 1985.

She knew!
I'd be surprised. There's nothing to be gained by knowingly keeping a kiddie-porn collector on your staff, and a lot to lose. From a purely pragmatic point of view, any politician is going to fire a guy like this as soon as they find out his predilictions.
Maybe this is why Hillary's brother wasn't paying her daughter child support? Worth investigating in more depth to see what the Boxer women are really into with those young children.
This woman has a track record of employing this kind of guy ~ so let me say it again SHE KNEW.
She only fired him because he got caught- NOT because he did something vile that Boxer didn’t agree with.
Seriously, as much as he probably needs to be horsewhipped, he is only charged with a crime, not convicted. Can you got fired just for a charge?
More like he's screwing their children for the good of all perverts.
Who knew?
Apparently the FBI did. He's just another liberal freak who needs to be sent to prison for the rest of his life so that he will never get the chance to harm another child!
Are Dem's going soft?
No Bail ...No Bond...kind of like William Jefferson....
90 thousand in cool cash...caught red handed....
never Prosecuted.
Democrats walk every time....
America is Dead.
a bit off topic, but in the same line: Anyone watch O’Reilly last night? Dennis Miller was on and what he said almost made me spit soda all over the screen- Him and Billy were talking about AIG- Dennis said AIG should probably go to prison for corruption, and Billy said Yup- and probably Barney Frank should go to prison too- Dennis then said “Yeah, but I think maybe Barney might not mind going to prison”
I bout lost it on that one- Everyone in the studio including camera people were laughing
Democrat culture of corruption and law breakers.
Not a peep of this on the lame media.
Exactly. If she didn't know she should have. How can we trust her to make good decisions for the country when she makes awful decisions with her own staff. Did these guys ever babysit her grandchildren? Barbara Boxer either supports this behavior or is too incompetent to hold office?
Which is it, Babs?
LOL!!
Naaaah, he was probably fired for no call/no show.
I hope they dress him up like a little boy in prison.
“why not start hitting the rat brand now?”
——well, it’s already been done for years, by now, let’s just take Ann Coulter as one example. We’ve seen how well it plays, as spun the MSM, before it ever gets to the eyes and ears of the American public. The bald truth about Dems fits nicely and readily into their bag of hate speech,and all the usual distorted stereotypes about “the Right” will be turned on full blast. believe me,charges of racism and hate speech have yet to see their heyday. It will start on Jan. 20 for real.
I agree 100%, but if Republicans don’t do anything, then why fight for the party. Besides, the MSM will tar us with racism and hate if we complain at all. So why not go for it?
I don’t expect any politician or employer to be able to tell if they have an employee doing something illegal unless the employee is doing it openly. I’m sure that guys like this exist on both sides of the aisle.
I will give her credit for firing him immediately.
I do NOT give the media credit for accurate reporting. They describe him as “Fired Boxer aide” which makes it sound as if he’d worked for Boxer long ago. A more accurate headline would be something like “Boxer aide fired for...” which makes it clear that he was her employee at the time it was discovered.
Birds of a feather...
a couple of dikes?
“BaBa Boxer loves the fags of her district so why in she throwing this one under the street car named the Deviate Express...”
Because they have documentation of his deviancy.
When the repubie in Florida had the problem two years ago. I was told by a person, who used to be in the travel agency business about the Gay Predator Perverts in the Bay area, scheduling trips to Mexico, South America and SE Asia for homosexual sex with very young males. This person said many gay staff members on Boxer, Pelosi, Fineswine and Newsome’s staff were regular customers on these perverted trips.
Boxer knew...
first Bernie Ward...then this guy...
She draws them like Flies.
