Kissing Congressman Does Family Values Ad
Vance McAllister, vowed to leave Congress after being caught kissing a staffer on video, and is now running again after all, has an ad out with his long-suffering wife.
In the 30-second spot, the McAllisters sit side by side as the congressman’s wife Kelly says that she is “blessed to have a husband who owns up to his mistakes.”
And let’s not forget words like “Christian” “Conservative” and “family” which are focused-grouped into the spot.
D.B. Hirsch is a political activist, news junkie, and retired ad copy writer and spin doctor. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.

What on earth does she see in this douche.

Kissing

Yes.
As far as I know, that’s all that was on film. I have not heard of him admitting to a sexual affair. I hope it didn’t go that far and that the voters reject him. Then I could add him to my list of Republicans whose political careers were ruined by sex scandals in which they did not manage to get to Shangri-La. The list to date is:
* Senator Bob Packwood
* Senator John Tower
* Representative Mark Foley
* Deputy Secretary of State Randall Tobias
* Representative Jack Ryan
* State Senator Bob Allen
* Senator “Wide Stance” Larry Craig
* Representative Chris Lee
Ryan is my favorite because his sexless sex scandal only involved Ryan and his wife.

The irony of the story. Make sure there are no cameras around; next time.

“…congressman’s wife Kelly says that she is “blessed to have a husband who owns up to his mistakes.” So, she does not have to be around him when he’s in D.C. mucking up our democracy.

That’s ‘mucking’ with a capital F…..

Apparently, being a total douche isn’t a mistake, it’s a feature!
neworleans878 September 22nd, 2014 at 6:44 pm
This disgusts me.
What disgusts me more is how many will buy into their B.S. and vote for him.

If Bill Clinton could have run in 2000, I would have voted for him.
mea_mark September 22nd, 2014 at 7:12 pm
Republicans, slow to learn and easy to dupe.
searambler September 22nd, 2014 at 7:34 pm
Well, they sent David Vitter back to Congress after his hooker scandal. Apparently sexcapades are only terminal if you’re a Dem…..
neworleans878 September 22nd, 2014 at 8:01 pm
That’s cause they’re forgiven, praise Jesus, unlike them heathen Democrats!
William September 22nd, 2014 at 10:37 pm
….and he actually said this.
NW10 September 22nd, 2014 at 7:55 pm
And yet the right bitches about Bill Clinton, Eliot Spitzer, and John Edwards.
Carla Akins September 22nd, 2014 at 8:33 pm
In all fairness, I still bitch about John Edwards.
neworleans878 September 22nd, 2014 at 9:09 pm
So do I. He was the lowest of the low on that one.
burqa September 22nd, 2014 at 11:39 pm
I do too, Ms. Akins. Edwards really let me down. Superstar Bill Clinton likewise let me down.
Because I was invested in them, the disappointment seems greater.
burqa September 22nd, 2014 at 11:35 pm
Indeed, and therein lies the larger issue.
Both sides hypocritically accuse the other of hypocrisy.
Those doing so remove themselves from serious consideration on the issue, in my opinion, because they have one set of standards for their side and a different set of standards for their political opponents.
Consistency is called for.

Really?? How many democrats, who have claimed to be our moral superiors, have been caught with their pants down? Note: I said “who have claimed to be our moral superiors”.
Bunya September 23rd, 2014 at 4:13 pm
P.S. Please see William’s reference to David “diaperman” Vitter below. In case you’ve forgotten about him, he’s the one who ran on family and Christian values. I gotta admit, if having extramarital sex with a prostitute who changes your crap filled diaper passes for Christian values, I’ll pass on your religion.
Obewon September 22nd, 2014 at 8:11 pm
Oxymoron is easily defined by those feigning last centuries “Christian” “Conservative” and “family” values hypocrites. Mark Sanford / Herb Cain until 2016~
Bunya September 22nd, 2014 at 8:36 pm
Now, I’m no expert on looks, but this guy is no Paul Newman. I can’t believe somebody can be so hard up that they would actually sleep with him! Yuck! He reminds me of herpes.
Obewon September 22nd, 2014 at 10:41 pm
His wife Kelly looks and sounds truly pissed off! Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned by a Louisiana duck worshiper.
Kingminnie September 22nd, 2014 at 11:01 pm
It’s not looks in most cases. It’s how powerful one thinks he/she may be, and what that person can do for you. My best example? Newt Gingrich. He’s a big “Ewwwwww!” to me and look at his history.
burqa September 22nd, 2014 at 11:30 pm
I’ll see your Nyewt Gingrich and raise you a Henry Kissinger…
DaddyO_969 September 23rd, 2014 at 8:40 am
Stop. You’ll give herpes a bad name.
William September 22nd, 2014 at 10:36 pm
Relax….gawd sez’ it’s ok.
RuskinRules September 22nd, 2014 at 11:24 pm
I’ve not looked at the YouTube version, but I’m willing to bet that they’re not allowing comments.
