Bush "Faith Based" campaign advisor resigns (prior sex abuse complaint)
Edited on Thu Aug-19-04 11:09 AM by librechik
Bush campaign adviser quits over prior sex case

David D. Kirkpatrick, New York Times


" Deal Hudson, the publisher of the conservative Roman Catholic journal Crisis and the architect of a Republican effort to court Catholic voters, said he is resigning as an adviser to the Bush campaign because of a newspaper's investigation into accusations of sexual misconduct involving a student at a college where he once taught.

"No one regrets my past mistakes more than I do," Hudson wrote in a column posted Wednesday on the online edition of National Review announcing his resignation. "At the time, I dealt with this in an upright manner, and the matter was satisfactorily resolved long ago," he wrote, without specifying the accusations.

Hudson, 54, said he has been happily married for 17 years. Called for comment, he declined.

The investigation is being conducted by the National Catholic Reporter, according to some people who have spoken to the Catholic newspaper."


Republican Family Values again

7. I'll bet his wife wouldn't say SHE's been happily married for 17 years.
Why doesn't somebody ask her. Maybe she's another Stepford wife.
