I wonder if he has that genetic allergy to alcohol that asian people can possess? My friend--who is half-Japanese--would have one beer and act like she drank a case. Getting a red face after a few sips is a symptom.
Yes. It is puzzling that WW would publish such a hit job without some kind of, any kind of substantiation, evidence or facts. If you are going to destroy a man's reputation, career, and marriage, you better bring more than empty name-calling. I can only assume one of Wu's incompetent staffers has a relative or pull at WW. It's clear his staff was clueless about running his campaign, thinking he was losing when he ended up crushing his opponent. Good thing he refused to follow their advice about hiding from the voters or pretending to be someone he is not. A sincere and honest politician will get my vote every time. Good thing he fired most of them. Smart guy.
Rep. David Wu said late Sunday he would not resign but would complete his term and then retire from Congress. http://www.oregonlive.com/politics/index.ssf/2011/07/rep_david_wu_wont_resign_nancy.html
I'm satisfied with this, we get Wu out of office and Maris61 has time to find him a nice home in beautiful central Oregon for when he retires.
If you're going to get drunk, do it with someone who won't take pictures and send them to your subordinates. The wording in the e-mails sounds like it wasn't written by his kids. If those e-mails were really from his kids--with friends like that, he doesn't need enemies.
Wu isn't running for re-election. So, for the Dem lackeys in this thread who have pooh-poohed this alleged sexual assault and were defending Wu, apparently it was and is a big deal. The Dems are also calling for an ethics investigation. I guess it will be a week or two before Wu resigns.
Which "Dem Lackeys" in this thread have pooh-poohed it? ONE person made a direct reference to it, and the others didn't say anything about it nor were defending him. You always seem to make a lupus out of everything, don't you? Doesn't that get tiring?
Wu seems like a total nut and possible criminal to me. It makes me sick thinking he may get to retire and suck up more public money.
The writer says, Every Blazer fan is familiar with the Oregonian's tabloid style, repeating over and over its rumors about our players. After the article, ET1492 comments: A couple of the articles say that a few months ago, he had a reaction to his psychiatric drug. Behavior modification drugs can make you worse, not better.
The guy is a creep plain and simple. What a guilty bastard, I would never retire if I were innocent. No wonder the Dems are investigating this weirdo.
Excellent speech. One of the best I've seen. He makes a valid criticism, is spot on with his accusations, and relates it to something common that everyone understands. Short, sweet, and powerful.
There's a big difference between having your career destroyed by a political smear job of your reputation and being guilty of some as yet unnamed sexual advance. Few here seem to understand how politics are played.
