Oregon Rep. David Wu, Democrat, responded to Rush Limbaugh’s insulting and offensive impersonation of Chinese President Hu Jintao. Wu, the the first Chinese American to serve in Congress, found Limbaugh’s remarks to exhibit “pathetic childishness,” and a “fundamental lack of character.”

I remember reports about him assaulting a woman while in college. One would think that would have ended his career.

David Wu needs to step up to the plate and defend himself. He needs to fight these scurrilous charges head on. Apparently the author doesn't know what "scurrilous" means.
1. Making or spreading scandalous claims about someone with the intention of damaging their reputation: "a scurrilous attack".

After all, there were no mass resignations when Rep. Wu went to the House Floor in 2007 and gave a nationally maligned speech about faux Klingons in the Bush White House. Well, that explains this:
Sorry, Klingon interpreters, Oregon's not hiring
AP ^ | Tuesday, May 13, 2003 Officials have said they won't be needing your services, after all.
The office that treats mental health patients in Multnomah County had included Klingon on a list of 55 languages that could be spoken by incoming patients.
But the inclusion of the Star Trek language drew a spate of tongue-in-cheek headlines.

Keep in mind that the media suppressed these reports until the election was over. Even that being said, Wu nearly lost the last election in this solidly Democratic area.

Are you with me Dr. Wu
Are you really just a shadow
Of the man I once I knew
Are you crazy
Are you high
Or just an ordinary guy
Have you done all you can do
Are you with me Doctor

He's an alcoholic who started drinking again. I ran into him at a downtown bar in October of last year, he was hiding out in the basement room. He came over and sat down with us and talked for a while. He seemed quite sane at the time. He had a handler who was fussing over him, and he left about 15 minutes later. He was drinking white wine.
According to a previous article he quit drinking last summer. Not so! I have seen it with my own eyes.

“It does not say a whole lot for the Republican party or their candidate in that district to lose to a psyco-nut case Democrat now does it?”
No, it does not. As a resident of Oregon, and in Wu’s district, I can tell you that this place is a lost cause.
The Oregon Republican Party is the reason I’m not a Republican anymore.
However, I think the ‘rats will throw him under the bus next time so that they can run someone else. If Wu runs against Cornellis again, he just may lose.

Heh...a democrat in Oregon who assaulted a woman during his youth. lol
We have a forner Governor who committed statutory rape, and he got a pass.
Oh, these crazy, perverted dems...

LOL!
This guy obviously has a parasite-rich district where they don’t care who the Democrat is who hands out the free stuff in exchange for their votes.

>>No, he’s a Democrat.
And further, just based on the life and times of the Kennedy clan, it would appear to be a resume-enhancer in Dem circles.
