well well well, guess who is having an affair

http://gotnews.com/breaking-exclusive-dc-sources-rep-kevin-mccarthy-rep-renee-ellmers-affair/

Multiple sources within Bakersfield, North Carolina, & on Capitol Hill tell Gotnews.com that Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Renee Ellmers (R-NC) have been carrying on a long-running affair since 2011.

The affair is something of an open secret in Washington, D.C. Reporters at other publications, lobbyists, congressional staffers of both parties all know about it. One staffer for a congressman describes it as the “biggest open secret” in D.C. A lobbyist describes Ellmers as a “social climber who has ingratiated herself” with McCarthy.

House leadership also knows about the affair. Speaker John Boehner reportedly told McCarthy to stop the affair once McCarthy was elected Majority Leader says a well placed congressional staffer. At least one leadership staffer doesn’t think the affair ended. “They are unusually close,” says the staffer who insists that the affair is going on. “It’s weird if he’s not fucking her.”

Ellmers, who was elected in 2010, has traveled with Kevin McCarthy throughout North Carolina on the campaign trail in 2014. McCarthy campaigned for Ellmers during her 2014 primary challenge with radio talk show host Frank Roche.

A LOT of anger with her for her role in derailing the 20 week abortion ban bill. The timing is, at the very least, suspicious.

It was just reported that the anti-abortion crowd and anti-immigration crowd is unhappy with her. Someone who probably knew the story but was keeping their mouth shut decided to out her affair.

8. Wingnut HOT SEX!1 a la Bernie KERIK & Judith REGAN, ah memories

Where Bernie & Judith were putting the City paid apartment meant for 9/11 responders to GOOD use!1

MURDOCH had given her a publishing imprint all her own (she published LIMBOsevic's first book, plus the rogue warrior or whoever dude), then Bernie. Plus, she had a half hour interview show on Saturday nights on Faux. & the camera lenses beaded over with moisture as she interviewed her author/Bernie. It was his autobio where he, a strapping specimen, got all sensitive about having been abandoned to foster care by his druggie/whatever mother, and he was crushed when she never showed up at his hearing. So fast forward. Judy couldn't break eye contact. She asked him, "Where were you on 9/11?" And he said, "Stepping out of the shower." There was a gasp, a hush, an orgasm. He added, "After a workout." Another gasp, sharp intake of breath.

Anyway, I sensed WINGNUT HOT SEX had been happening. Months later I was validated. Then GHOULiani tried to get him into the Shrub-CHEENEE "homeland" pipeline and failed when Bernie went to prison. And Judith was outed as a horrendous human by her much abused underlings.

I'll never tire of telling this story.

13. I remember that well. And the country was fooled, though not NYers, into thinking of that now

convicted Felon, as america's Top Cop. Giuliani loved that guy, a former Reiker's Island prison guard, who ended up being Ghouliani's drive and from there, to NYC's Top Cop. No wonder they failed to take the advice of the Intel Community about an imminent attack on that city.

Kerik is out of jail and had the gall to appear on Faux recently slamming Mayor de Blasio. These people are NUTS.

It was no surprise to NYers when he landed in jail for corruption, too bad his buddy didn't though.

I remember when he and his girl friend from the Channel of the Moral Majority stole the use of an apartment that was intended for the 9/11 First Responders to rest due to the long hours they were spending at ground zero.

And he's back on Fox slamming a good, decent human being.
