Rep. Christopher Lee of New York abruptly resigned with only a vague explanation of regret after gossip website Gawker reported that the married congressman had sent a shirtless photo of himself to a woman whose Craigslist ad he answered, identifying himself as a 39-year-old divorced lobbyist.
This is just another typical Republican hypocrite who espouses family values, but doesn't live them.
Lee initially tried going the traditional route of denying anything untoward, insisting his computer had been hacked. But that didn't last long: Around 5 p.m., Lee tendered his resignation to House speaker John Boehner and about an hour and a half after that, he released a public statement acknowledging that he'd made "profound mistakes" that had harmed his family.
To think this guy has been one of the foremost defender of family values in Washington is a shocker. But then what really can you expect from the Republicans, they are all a bunch of lairs, racist, and hypocrites who have this do as i say attitude but don't do as i do,

I'm going to have to disagree with your remark that ALL Republicans are...well anything. You cant throw us all in the same bucket. What that man did was wrong, and sad for his family to have to be embarrased by something so sleezy, but we ALL are not the same.
