And you wonder why we can't get Congress to vote for what "We The People" want??

Take a look at this: http://www.mediaite.com/online/eric-massa-describes-his-naked-shower-encounter-with-rahm-emanuel/

And don't forget to listen to the audio clip.

First, it is ridiculed.
Second, it is violently opposed.
Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Maybe being hearing-impaired is a saving grace sometimes... Undecided

Can't these guys wait until they get their boxers on to do business/

I found it to be of little consequence.  Men's showers have been open for decades now and I don't see any connotation of sexual impropriety in this incident.  It seems odd that the guy goes to the Congresssional gym when he is in the exec. branch, but there may also be an explanation for that.

Men's showers may be open, but how many men start fights with other men in the shower nude/ Over government matters?

weird.

I think the democrats ought to question whether or not Rahm is emotionally mature enough for his job....he's really off/the/handle.

One wants or expects some dignity in  high public office. It is rare to find these days, to be sure.

Rahm is the convenient whipping post right now and an easy target for deflection/attack.

 I seriously doubt there haven't been other major discussions in those showers ... I suspect there's more to come out on the Massa ethics deal and he's in damage control mode.

i am shocked that this story is taken at face value.  This is a guy who declared some of the events with men in the Navy to a tickle fight and the film Caligula.

He was obviously trying to push back with full on crazy but thought better of it.

Yes, he was on Larry King last night and it looks that way.  It appears that the media is trying to paint him as a pervert. I didn't watch the whole interview and don't really have an opinion on the issue.

I was in hysterics last night watching the highlights of Glenn Beck's desperate efforts to get the guy to come out and say something that might confirm Beck's wacked out cosmology. At one point Beck was covering his mouth after realizing how embarrassed he should be.

He admitted to groping another guy as well as telling the other guy he wanted to fuck him.  Reporting what the guy admitted is just basic reporting.

Someone said the Beckerhead even apologized to his audience because he could not deliver the goods.
