Looks like he's exposing himself to the woman in front of him, and her expression indicates displeasure (at the very least).

So he's ostensibly a 'Democrat.' So what of it? Wacko politicians would have to start running 10-to-1 Democrat vs. Republican for a long time before approaching the level of malfeasance on their side. Good. Glad he's gone - and therein lies the difference: Republicans attempt to move hell & earth to protect one of their own, while we're happy to see the crooks & cretins gone on our side.

When his name is mentioned, they'll inevitably refer to him as a 'Democrat.' Watch and see. Of course, when a white supremacist/child rapist like Strom Thurmond converts from Dixiecrat to Republican, he's a hero.

they do love them some Patterson. He fits right in with all the Arizona Repukes.

But it’s not his politics they say they fear. It’s his angry, threat-filled outbursts that they say are becoming all too normal. One such outburst managed to rattle a fellow lawmaker enough that she says she now sleeps with a weapon at her bedside — just in case.

This week, those same lawmakers said they are now considering throwing Patterson out of office after an ethics investigation uncovered a series of similar outbursts, along with other allegations, including that he once offered to give a lobbyist his vote in exchange for sex and that he regularly smokes marijuana.

The investigation came after prosecutors in Tucson charged Patterson with four misdemeanor counts of domestic violence. The charges, which he has pleaded not guilty to, stemmed from fights with his live-in girlfriend, who also happened to be his campaign manager at the time.
