Hypocrites Unite! Jim West is the mayor of Spokane, Washington and a former state senate leader. While serving in his state senate, Jim voted a conservative line: banning gay marriage; barring homosexuals from working in schools and/or day care centers; and he supported making sexual touching between unmarried teenagers a misdemeanor. Yet, Mayor West has now been accused of sexually molesting two boys while he was their Boy Scout leader (he denies the accusation) and of having sex with men (which he admits).
But because the laws that Jim supported were only good for others and not for himself, he has now declared, "My sexual orientation is nobody's business." But I guess banning himself from working in schools is different from banning himself from working in the Scouts - an organization which bans gays from participation anyway.
This blog will focus on political images I have found all around the Internet, though I will intersperse some commentary and quotes that I find interesting.
