Mom, Dad Say Condit Bedeviled
New York Daily News ^ | 9/06/01 | HELEN KENNEDY

Posted on 9/6/2001, 10:19:06 AM by kattracks

WASHINGTON ep. Gary Condit slipped back to Washington yesterday as his parents and daughter blamed rapacious reporters, lying women, weak cops — and even the Devil — for his problems. "Satan had a big-time role in this," his father, the Rev. Adrian Condit, told the Ceres (Calif.) Courier.

The preacher and his wife, Jean, said their son won't answer questions about missing intern Chandra Levy out of respect for her — not political expediency. "Gary has taken a lot of crap because he's trying to be a gentleman and not expose her," said his father.

Both said their son had nothing to do with his 24-year-old lover's May 1 disappearance.

Jean Condit said she thinks Levy took off on her own to get attention and questioned why her son should discuss his private life.

"Just because he won't say the sex word and make a big juicy confession of some sexual activity that he had, the people are ready to turn thumbs down on him," she said.

The parents said cops called Condit uncooperative because they "began to weaken" under media pressure.

They also said flight attendant Anne Marie Smith is lying about a 10-month affair with Condit — even though his lawyer has conceded the relationship. "If Gary told me he didn't, I believe him," said the minister.

Their granddaughter, Cadee Condit, 25, went on CNN's "Larry King Live" to say her father has been "a gentleman throughout."

She portrayed him as a sexual innocent who never even heard of sadomasochism. "One morning Gary and I were having a cup of coffee, and he was going to give me a heads-up to one of the tabloids. He said, 'Cad, I just want to give you a heads-up that they're going to come out with some awful stuff tomorrow. ... They're going to say that I'm into that M&M, or M&S stuff.'

"I didn't know to laugh or cry. I just said, 'Dad, I think they mean S&M.'"

To avoid reporters, the congressman did not fly back to the Capitol, his daughter said. She wouldn't say whether he drove or took a train.

California Democrats Anna Eshoo, Sam Farr and Nancy Pelosi greeted Condit with hugs when he arrived on the House floor for a vote last evening.

This is sooooo typical. It's still everybody else's fault! A typical democratic refusal to take responsibilty. I guess this is where they get it. It's ingrained by their parents.

Okay, how many among us have sat down in a real heart-to-heart with Mom and Pops and talked over how kinky or not kinky are their sex lives? Come on!

Grammy and Gramps -- my goodness, you read this garbage they spew and it is no mystery how old Gar' got so messed up.

Both said their son had nothing to do with his 24-year-old lover's May 1 disappearance. Jean Condit said she thinks Levy took off on her own to get attention and questioned why her son should discuss his private life.

And they're basing this on what? There are times when opinions do not count. At all. For anything.

Should have been,

"Gary's he taking a lot of crap, because he doesn't want to expose _______" (fill in the blank).

When you see what Condit is putting his kids up to it's easy to imagine that they too will be totally messed up.

At least the Condit's replaced the Clinton's as America's most dysfunctional political family for the summer.

Let me rephrase that.

It's easy to see why they already are messed up.

I guess the Condit defense is that Gary is a gentleman and he was seduced by the Jewish slut?

That's about it.

Maybe Cadee wants us to believe that Gary the innocent was seduced by ALL of the women he fooled around with.

After seeing the pics of Carolyn Condit and what this has done to her physically, I am ashamed of these two *kids* for standing behind their dad(I mean Gary).

I know Carolyn is an enabler and I don't have much sympathy for her, but you would think the *kids* would take the side of their mom(I mean Carolyn).
This is one WEIRD family.

Fellow posters, this is the legacy Clinton has left us..Power at any cost.
