Wow. Not only is Duncan Hunter a heel, he's also a goddamned liar. I'll bet Divorce Court

is in his future--after the tire marks heal on his wife from the bus he threw her under, that is.



In his indictment, you can read GOP Congressman Duncan Hunter’s texts to his wife about buying his “Hawaii shorts” with campaign funds and writing off the expense as a donation to Wounded Warriors. Now he has the nerve to call his indictment “politically motivated?” Shameless.

It was so blatant what they did it was ridiculous. There's really no defense they can make.

He's just trying to save his ass by blaming the wife for everything.

But it likely won’t happen before November. My comments were aimed more at the election. And yes, I’m well aware that even under this cloud he is still a prohibitive favorite in his district, but you never say never.

San Diego is a Navy town, and his district (CA 50), just east of San Diego, is chock-full of retired Navy people who vote.

There's probably just enough money left to put in her prison commissary account.

Holy cow, he apparently doesn't realize how he makes himself look when he pulls a stunt like that.

they have lived in the negative for a long time. Negative checking acct, no savings, sold their house and live with his parents, at their ages. They really are poster children for irresponsibility and greed and avarice. I assume their kids will be taken care of by the grandparents, but as for these two themselves, who the hell cares? They deserve all that's coming to them.
