Righteous Republican road map of sleaze and hypocrisy - special sexual perverted edition via RecoveringLiberal.com
The following was pilfered from RecoveringLiberal.com via Craig's List. It is written from a Hebrew point of view about Larry Craig and cohorts. Both parties have had their share of sleazy activities articulated in many more places than this. Believe nothing on the internet unless you know it to be true.

Republican Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld authorized the rape of children in Iraqi prisons in order to humiliate their parents into providing information about the anti-American insurgency.
These are all matters of public record, not hearsay. They have been reported in both the local press where the incidents occurred and in various national media. The perverts in question have come from all over the country. Their major similarity is that they are Republican Conservative Christian activists who have made their mark by preaching family values while performing unspeakable acts of perversion, many with minors.
So much for family values from the religious right. Now, I am not saying that there aren’t a few pervs who call themselves Democrats, but, somehow, these holier than thou arsh luchs (you can look it up, it’s Yiddish for a**holes) are true and certain hypocrites along with being perverts.
When a political party presents itself as the party of the righteous, whether it is The Republican Party or the Shiite Party in Iraq, or for that matter some members of the various Chasidic sects, you can be absolutely certain that there is something being hidden under all of that religious pomp. Consider the child molestation scandals that have rocked The Roman Catholic Church over the past few years, and you will realize that this problem covers a broad range of people.
However, when you consider the number of Republican members of the religious right/anti choice crowd that have been arrested and sentenced for these perverse acts with children, you come to realize that in their place, at least, religion and conservative politics are truly the hiding places of perverts and scoundrels, perhaps in larger numbers than anywhere else in our country.

Rudy Giuliani's best friend since high school has been Alan Placa (later Monsignor Alan Placa.) In fact, Alan Placa was Rudy's best man at his first wedding, and then as a priest officiated at his second.
As I wrote about here, Monsignor Placa figured prominently in the report by the Suffolk County grand jury investigating abuse of young boys by priests in the Rockville Centre Diocese in New York. As you can see from the link, Monsignor Placa was identified as 'Priest F.' Later we see in the specific report on Priest F that Monsignor Placa was involved in multiple incidents of abuse and attempted abuse of boys. Later on Monsignor Placa was put in charge of developing policies for the Diocese regarding abuse of children by priests.
After the report on the Rockville Diocese came out, Monsignor Placa was suspended by the Catholic Church so that he can no longer act as a priest. So when he found himself out on the street, who showed up to help him out?
Why, his old friend Rudy Giuliani, of course. Placa was hired as a consultant by Giuliani Partners, a New York legal firm which is run by Rudy. and at least earlier this year was still on the payroll there. Not sure what a suspended pedophile priest would do at a law office, but I guess they need somebody to bugger the errand boy.
Dang, if Rudy gets elected President, I wonder if Alan Placa will be in charge of the annual White House Easter Egg roll.
Maybe the reason they are so 'holier than thou' is because they are overcompensating.
Oh, you forgot to mention the special hypocrisy awards for Dan Burton and Newt Gingrich, both of whom were very hard on Bill Clinton during the Lewinsky scandal even while, as it turns out, both were covering up affairs of their own.
It's not just the sex, its the hypocrisy. Democrats have sex scandals too, but they don't turn around and try to tell other people what their moral values should be.

I actually hope the Republicans do nominate Guliani. Because most people don't know anything about Alan Placa, and I'm sure that Hillary and her advisors are sharp enough to wait until after February 5 when the nomination is decided, and if it is Guliani, that's when they will go after him for it. Cuz nobody likes pervert priests.
