This is a really pervy story. He's 57 and she's 17. She maybe lied about her age to get close to this skinny little Grandpa and he maybe thought she was legal, but just barely. Hell, just look at him, how could she resist? When the parents find out about this, their first reaction is to try to squeeze this poor Barney Fife looking bastard for cash, because why would you have kids if you can't use them to make a little extra cash. The real problem in this story is who's side do you take? Everybody is awful. I'm feeling for the girl because she's young and dumb and no grown old man should have touched her, but no one here is covered in glory.
Aside from that, I kind of feel for the poor rapey little weasel. If my taint was over my seat, I'd have it removed too. I can't even imagine the horrors of daily clean up.
Yeah, lots of weird details in this one. Seems like she's still his girlfriend. Her mother and grandmother really like him, but her father and her sisters do not, and he claims they're just trying to extort him.
You know, I have to admit that I'd be open to a relationship with a woman who was 40 years younger than me (yes, yes, in my dreams). But that -- very hypothetical -- woman would be 27, not 17.
so you don't end up dead.
My husband is 57. I'm trying to picture him with a 17 yr old... nah, can't do it. Maybe I should ask him if he can.
Eventually you get to the point where young women, however appealing, begin to look more like granddaughters than potential sexual partners.
That's why there's such a thing as statutory rape. Not all 17-year-olds are as sophisticated as we were, haw haw.
<em>Right now there is a bit of a cloud, a taint over my seat.</em>
Ewwwwww ... TMI! TMI!! This was already gross enough.
But he brings an AK-47 to work.
It&#039;s reality show time.
Not in his district . . .

I&#039;m afraid of her.
Yeah, I do too.
Oh. Wait...
Never mind.

Okay. He&#039;s an asshole. A Democratic asshole.
