March 27 QoD -- "Democrats Caught With Their Pants Down

Rules: viewtopic.php?p=40443#40443

When Mr. Lunatic asked me to host today’s Question of the Day, I thought it was a fabulous idea. There’s an obvious liberal bias on this forum judging from all of the attacks toward me and my good friend Sen. John McCain, so I need to provide some fairness and balance. Let’s talk about all of those Democrats who are bad boys. Naughty boys. Even nasty, naughty boys! I’ll describe the political figure and his scandals and controversies, then you simply name him. This is a pretty hard set of questions because the damn liberal media didn’t cover any of these scandals as much as they did the youthful indiscretions of my good friend Sen. David Vitter.

Answers are due by Friday at 5 PM Eastern. I’m going back to my stall--er, I mean, my office.

1. Senator who drove his car into a lake, resulting in the death of his lady friend
2. Senator who was engaged in a little “monkey business” with Donna Rice
3. Representative with $90,000 in his freezer
4. Ohio representative busted for bribery, racketeering, and tax evasion, but should’ve been busted for his really bad rug
5. Senator who dropped out of the 1988 presidential race after getting caught stealing a speech from a British political leader
6. Governor who had sexual relations with his homeland security adviser; ultimately came out of the closet and resigned; don't ask about the potato skins from TGI Friday's
7. City councilman who resigned after paying a prostitute with a check; later re-elected to the city council, became mayor, and presided over fist-fighting rednecks on TV
8. California representative who fell from grace after his relationship with a missing intern
9. House Ways and Means chairman busted for mail fraud in the congressional post office scandal
10. New Jersey senator caught with his hand in the cookie jar of imprisoned Chinese businessman David Chang
11. Big-city mayor in trouble for an alleged affair with his chief of staff; lots of steamy text messages included
12. Pennsylvania representative caught in the Abscam bribery scandal; notoriously proclaimed that money talks and bulls**t walks
13. Kentucky governor who was literally caught with his pants down with nursing home employee Tina Conner
14. Illinois representative busted for sexually abusing a 16-year-old campaign worker and soliciting child pornography
15. This Arkansas representative was a real OG: in 1974, he got drunk and had an affair with stripper Fanne Foxe

BONUS
Two of the senators who were in the “Keating Five” with John McCain

I can't resist playing a game hosted by an MM.... with emphasis on that first M....

1. Senator who drove his car into a lake, resulting in the death of his lady friend - SloppyDrunkG.... er, Ted Kennedy (Vandal actually had Ted as an MM on the old Bored, and it was hilarious. In fact, I'm not positive, but Sen. Kennedy may have been the first MM to ever host ANY game on this Bored in vandal's 11/02 LS [If it wasn't Kennedy, it was Pat Summerall]. Another idea that I actually didn't originate....)
2. Senator who was engaged in a little “monkey business” with Donna Rice - Gary Hart
3. Representative with $90,000 in his freezer
4. Ohio representative busted for bribery, racketeering, and tax evasion, but should’ve been busted for his really bad rug
5. Senator who dropped out of the 1988 presidential race after getting caught stealing a speech from a British political leader
6. Governor who had sexual relations with his homeland security adviser; ultimately came out of the closet and resigned; don't ask about the potato skins from TGI Friday's - McSomething. McGreavy? The damn New Jersey governor. I should watch the news more often....
7. City councilman who resigned after paying a prostitute with a check; later re-elected to the city council, became mayor, and presided over fist-fighting rednecks on TV - Jerry Springer
8. California representative who fell from grace after his relationship with a missing intern
9. House Ways and Means chairman busted for mail fraud in the congressional post office scandal - Dan Rostenkowski
10. New Jersey senator caught with his hand in the cookie jar of imprisoned Chinese businessman David Chang

14. Illinois representative busted for sexually abusing a 16-year-old campaign worker and soliciting child pornography
15. This Arkansas representative was a real OG: in 1974, he got drunk and had an affair with stripper Fanne Foxe

BONUS
