“Why did he leave now? Why not wait until the vote.”
The whole point of him being pushed out is so he doesn’t get to vote against obamacare. The gay democrats in favor of obamacare are not resigning. And they don’t get ambushed in the shower either. The gay staffer is probably a WH plant and he probably has video.

If the guy was actually afraid of stuff in the ethics probe/file, he could have just shifted his vote FOR Odumbskycare — rather than resign. Once he switched the vote, the ethics probe would have vanished.
And—
Switching a vote is a lot easier than resigning ... and if all he cares about are young men and his ability to chase them, then it would be logical to just switch his vote FOR Obamskycare.
Does everyone see what I’m getting at here? An unethical sexual predator switches his vote, he does NOT resign.
Krauthammer is not thinking the thing through here. And, we’re not seeing all the facts of this matter — we’re in the “fog of war” period.

Yes but the point is to publicly destroy Massa so the other dems fall in line. If they vote for obamacare they may lose in November but if they vote against they might have to deal with gay staffers accusing them of sexual harassment.
To: BarnacleCenturion
My point regards Massa’s motivation for quitting—he could have made the ethics investigation go away by switching his vote. He quit for reasons that are not clear.

The Rats threatened to destroy him if he didn’t vote for Obamacare. They were serious.

He should have stayed while Pelosi conducted one of her 1-3 year long investigations.

Threatening harm to a family member would make most sense.

I will maintain my stance on this issue: if it passes then it’s time for the people of the country to march on Washington and physically throw them out. Nothing will change my mind.

I agree, something about this stinks to high heavens.

Chicago politics. Find dirt on your opponent and threaten to “blow him up” if he doesn't vote for your bill. Just about every COngresscritter has dirt, lovers, graft, bribes, etc. so blackmailing them is a piece of cake. Obama and Rham know what they are doing. We are witnessing a total breakdown of representative democracy as these thugs continue to f*ck America. Land of the formerly free and home of the political morons...
