When it comes to examples --- hard core, in your face examples --- of why The Gadfly is so viscerally turned off by the Tea Party and their movement, this gigantic fucking asshole who resembles a human dildo is the poster child for The Gadfly's justification for those views:
Read this shit and tell The Gadfly he's wrong to loathe these people:
On Wednesday, 242 members of the U.S. House of Representatives voted to outlaw abortions taking place after 20 weeks gestation. Among them, Rep. Scott DesJarlais (R-TN), who has defended his ex-wife having two abortions, and who pressured one of his mistresses to have an abortion after she told him she was pregnant.
“Congressman DesJarlais was proud to vote in favor” of the 20 week abortion ban in Congress this week, Robert Jameson, a spokesperson for the member of Congress, tells the Chattanooga Times Free Press. DesJarlais, a respected physician from Jasper, “has always advocated for pro-life values,” Jameson adds.
Meanwhile, DesJarlais’s website asserts that, “all life should be cherished and protected. [DesJarlais] has received a 100% score by the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), the oldest and the largest national pro-life organization in the United States.”
Members of the Tennessee and national press have combed through the 675-page court transcript from DesJarlais’ 2001 divorce, and found that he “had sexual relationships with at least two patients, three coworkers, and a drug representative while he was chief of staff at Grandview Medical Center in Jasper, Tenn. During one affair with a female patient, DesJarlais prescribed her drugs, gave her an $875 watch, and bought her a plane ticket to Las Vegas.” One of DesJarlais’ mistresses admitted to the press that she had smoked pot with him, explaining that, “Scott was just a regular guy.” Politico reports that DesJarlais’ ex-wife accused him of pulling out a gun during an argument.
Moreover, DesJarlais admitted in court to pressuring a woman, with whom he was having an affair, and who was 24 years his junior, to have an abortion as well. In court, however, DesJarlais’ lawyer pressed the woman in question to admit she had never been pregnant in the first place.
Stephen Greer, attorney to DesJarlais, asked the sitting congressman’s former mistress, now on the witness stand in a court of law: “You apparently weren’t pregnant, were you?” he asked.
“Yes,” the woman shot back. “I was.”
Reminiscent of a Horatio Alger novel, DesJarlais’ official biography tells a tale of a boy of little means who worked hard, played by rules, and rose quickly through the ranks, armed with little money but a lot of grit and determination. DesJarlais was “raised in rural America, where people value hard work and honesty,” the bio begins.
“Growing up, Scott’s first job was shining shoes for 25 cents per shine,” the narrative continues. “From shining shoes, Scott graduated to washing cars at a local dealership and was later promoted to the parts department – a job he kept while working his way through college.”
According to the bio, DesJarlais got into politics when he noticed his medical patients were sharing less with him about “sports, hunting, and family,” and were increasingly showing up to his office with concerns about “jobs, government spending, and Obamacare.”http://www.rawstory.com/2015/05/tennessee-republican-who-pressured-mistress-to-have-abortion-votes-to-restrict-them-for-other-women/#.VVZ7WQAqFT8.yahoomail
Just fucking wow. No really. Fucking wowzie, wow, wow, wow.
The Gadfly challenges any of his Republican friends to find a single Democrat or Independent, or even Libertarian, who is as ethically and morally compromised as this scumbag Scott DesJarlais is and yet still has the full support of his constituents and national party. Just fucking one!!
The man is a walking bag of noxious dirt. But because he rails against the evil 'gubmint and lazy minorities getting free welfare and Obamacare, he is a rock star to the Teatards. They adore his abortion loving ass. They completely and entirely sweep the glaring fact that this pig of a man is an unfathomably hypocritical piece of human shit right under the ol' Tea Party rug.
And it goes without saying that as far as The Gadfly is concerned, the fact that Scott DesJarlais can sit in judgement over a woman's right to control her own reproductive life, and his political party, knowing his background, is A-O-K with it, is goddamn reason enough to not only want to vote against them, but do some extra work on the sidelines ensuring that the modern day conservative movement never, ever, ever fucking gains full political power in this country.
