For Kinky and Sick, You Don't Have to Go to an Orgy

Just visit with an ultra-conservative, Republican family values type, a surprising number of which have not only been outed in picklish peccadilloes, but also for the children they spent so much time wanting to "protect" from the same stories of Bill Clinton's cigars and fellatio that these folks devoted all their energy toward reviling.

In this vein, let me offer up the Armchair Subversive's Rogues Gallery of alleged and/or convicted Republican Pedophiles, such as:

  • Republican County Constable Larry Dale Floyd was arrested on suspicion of soliciting sex with an 8-year old girl. Floyd has repeatedly won elections for Denton County, Texas, constable.
  • Republican judge Mark Pazuhanich pleaded no contest to fondling a 10-year old girl and was sentenced to 10 years probation.
  • Republican Party leader Bobby Stumbo was arrested for having sex with a 5-year old boy.
  • Republican campaign worker Mark Seidensticker is a convicted child molester.
  • Republican Mayor Philip Giordano is serving a 37-year sentence in federal prison for sexually abusing 8- and 10-year old girls.
  • Republican Mayor John Gosek was arrested on charges of soliciting sex from two 15-year old girls.
  • Republican County Commissioner David Swartz pleaded guilty to molesting two girls under the age of 11 and was sentenced to 8 years in prison.
  • Republican legislator Edison Misla Aldarondo was sentenced to 10 years in prison for raping his daughter between the ages of 9 and 17.
  • Republican Committeeman John R. Curtain was charged with molesting a teenage boy and unlawful sexual contact with a minor.
  • Republican anti-abortion activist Howard Scott Heldreth is a convicted child rapist in Florida.
  • Republican zoning supervisor, Boy Scout leader and Lutheran church president Dennis L. Rader pleaded guilty to performing a sexual act on an 11-year old girl he murdered.

You remember the last one listed, don't you? AKA the Bind-Torture-Kill (BTK) serial killer who was very active in the local GOP in between torturing whole familes.

The list, btw, goes on ad nauseum. And I do mean nauseum.
