Patrick McHenry (R-NC)...HOLY COW!
Advertisements [?]
And this is from The North Carolina CONSERVATIVE website.

"The North Carolina Conservative first reported last week that Congressman Patrick McHenry had ties to persons involved in a double murder/suicide in Florida. Sources told us that one of the men killed was Ralph Gonzalez, a gay Republican political consultant, an associate of McHenry who “helped on his campaign.” The same source told us that the shooter, Robert Drake who is reportedly connected with a gay escort service and another murder in Virginia, was “tight with McHenry and ran elections for him.” McHenry’s office has reportedly admitted that the congressman had an unspecified relationship with Drake."

According to reporter/blogger/pundit: Howie Klein:

"As we mentioned yesterday, Drake, a former marine, also is alleged to have a strong relationship-- both intimate and business/political-- with right-wing Congressman Patrick McHenry (R-NC). When I spoke to McHenry's office about this they at first insisted they never heard of Drake then, confronted with specifics, admitted they know him. They refused to put Congressman McHenry on the phone. There is every indication that McHenry may have been one of the Republican elected officials who was using the services of the gay prostitution agency connected to Drake. Our pals over at the BradBlog points out the connections between Florida's ultra-corrupt, vote-tampering congressman, Tom Feeney, and Gonzalez and reports the threat to expose the list of Republican elected officials who were using the gay escort service." http://downwithtyranny.blogspot.com/2007/09/dont-think-larry-craigs-resignation-is.html

"As the old saying goes, “you are judged by the company you keep.” Patrick McHenry has been keeping some very strange company indeed. Perhaps it is time that he come home before a major scandal develops that could embarrass the 10th District of North Carolina and damage the Republican Party."
