Should A US Congressman Busted on Drug Charges Using Cocaine Be Making Laws?

[MarcATL]

Or should he be given his walking papers?

Why/why not?

 

[JimH52]

He just pleaded Guilty. I expect the Voters will make that decision. Just another TP favorite...

FDR did cocaine and brought the country back from the great depression the republicans created. He also won WWII. There's no difference between a cocaine user and an alcohol user. You just disqualified 95% of all law makers.

He needs to resign.

I harbor no delusions that dimcrap scum would feel the same way about one of theirs, however.

And BTW? He's MY Congressman

They used to put cocaine in Coca-Cola, hence the name 'coca'

And I doubt FDR bought the coke in a knowingly illegal environment in a criminal manner.

Not taking up for FDR, he was an imbecile. But this is different. Different times, different laws, different standards.

Radel needs to resign. We are NOT dimocraps.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Another TeaP to be primaried out next year.

 

[Katzndogz]

No. He's a drug addict.

I suspect a lot of people's views on this depend on which party the person in question belongs to not if it's right or wrong.

It says a lot about the near total lack of accountability our elected officials now live under that the shithead has not already resigned.

Only an imbecile would say that about one of the most revered POTUS's in this country, by ALL historians. It's like Sarah Palin saying she could see Russia from her house, it's just a moronic statement.

The voters of South Carolina decided an openly adulterous bible-thumping Governor who actually used the bible to justify why he would not resign deserved to be elevated to federal office.

The People have communicated quite clearly that earthly power before spiritual principles is the rule of the day.

Thank you for your integrity. It's time we started asking ourselves if these jerks are the best we can come up with as our leaders.

Actually, what the People of that state showed was their penchant for HYPOCRISY. They were more interested in Party over country, damned what they feel or know about spiritual matters.

That's all that was. Nothing more, nothing less.

Yet another reason why I created this thread: http://www.usmessageboard.com/relig...ny-republican-for-that-matter-christians.html

I suspect you're right. In fact, 2 USMBERs voted that in the poll to date. BTW, were you one of those 2?

 

[LordBrownTrout]

He needs to either resign or be terminated from his job. No excuse for such pitiful leadership.

Democrats force our or vote out their guys all the time...with a quickness.

It is the Republicans that are NOTORIOUS for putting their arms around their guilty and protecting them.

You always hear stuff like, "It's a legal matter," or "It's a private family matter." from the GOP when one of their own is in deep soup like this. Ask Mark Sanford. Not-so-much from the Dems. Ask Anthony Weiner.

If you're going to be honest, then just be honest.

I owe you some rep for this one though.

Democrats vote out their guys all the time...with a quickness.

When a politicians says, "I will let the people decide if I should continue to serve...blah, blah, blah", they are being an unmitigated unrepentant asshole. The honorable thing is to resign. That day.

Dipshit cokehead just cut the legs out from under the idea of drug testing SNAP recipients.

See kids? There is a God!
