Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 22, 2017 Members Share Posted November 22, 2017 Texas Rep. Joe Barton's name is trending on social media and I just know it's scandal related because...2017. From what I've briefly read, there are some nude pictures of his body part involved. I'm afraid to click on any related article or link for fear, I'll see something and will lose my appetite for the next 48 Hours.

Members Juliajms Posted November 22, 2017 Members Share Posted November 22, 2017 As far as I can see this guy did nothing wrong. Well, maybe he exercised bad judgement in letting a partner snap a pic. Still, he didn't rape, assault, grab or harass any woman, man or child, so he doesn't deserve to be lumped in with all these predators we're dealing with right now. My goodness. We have these predatory men in every branch of our government. The President has endorsed a pedophile for the Senate. We are facilitating the starvation of Yemen and turning a blind eye to the ethnic cleansing of the Rohingya. If I still believed in god I would expect judgement day to start any second now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 22, 2017 Members Share Posted November 22, 2017 I didn't say he was a predator but if his phone's bills are expensed by his office, i.e. paid for by taxpayers, then yes, he would be doing something wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted November 22, 2017 Members Share Posted November 22, 2017 I think it's pretty clear I was speaking in terms of sexual ethics. I have no idea if he even used his phone for any of this and it's frankly the last thing I care about when our government is awash with predators. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 22, 2017 Members Share Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) I'd be fine if no one mentioned it ever but since he himself has referred to it as a selfie, it's not that much of an assumption to think he sent the nude photo using his phone. As I said in my original post, I'm avoiding looking at the photo because I don't want to see it. Unfortunately, in 2017 there are other scandals other than the ones about predators.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 22, 2017 Members Share Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) ^At least someone has stopped blaming "identity politics" for Trump, most with eyes to see saw through that phony narrative fast. I shouldn't be laughing at this but...I couldn't stop laughing at this. This is the same hotel that the Trump spawn barely evaded an indictment over.

Members amybrickwallace Posted November 23, 2017 Members Share Posted November 23, 2017 Also...SO tired of the war of words between Trump and Lavar Ball. I keep expecting to hear him say, "I know you are, but what am I?" over and over again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 23, 2017 Members Share Posted November 23, 2017 Still avoiding it, I read "around" it, reading only enough to get some details of the story while still avoiding any images-- because who needs to see that?! Those three UCLA basketball players acted stupidly in China (I still don't know why they did it) but- 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 23, 2017 Members Share Posted November 23, 2017 Another truth, Trump just affirmed that the concept of MAGA is built on racist bile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
