Sex Charge Spices Senate Race. (Trekkers must read)
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/06/22/politics/main625283.shtml


(CBS/AP) Republican Jack Ryan vowed to stay in the race for U.S. Senate despite embarrassing allegations that he tried to pressure his former wife to perform sex acts in clubs while others watched.

"My intention is to stay in the race," Ryan said Monday, hours after a California judge unsealed divorce records from his marriage to Jeri Lynn Ryan, the actress best known for roles on TV's "Boston Public" and "Star Trek: Voyager."

Jeri Lynn Ryan charged during a custody hearing that Ryan took her on surprise trips to New Orleans, New York and Paris in 1998, the year before they divorced, and that he insisted she go to sex clubs with him each time.

In New York, Ryan's former wife described a club "with cages, whips and other apparatus hanging from the ceiling." She said she refused when Ryan asked her to perform a sexual act while others watched.

Ryan denied the accusations and said he felt bad for their son, now 9, that she would falsely accuse him.

1. Whaaaaaa??!!
The ex-Borg drone is an ex-Ryan drone, too? Too bizarre! That's going to mess with my mind when I see Voyager reruns.

6. So Ryan got his "jollies"...

By hauling She Who is No Longer a Member of the Collective into places like Plato's Retreat...against her will, huh? Now THAT's a wholesome quality folks in Ill. ought to value in a senator!:eyes:

And I understand the docs released from their divorce hearing further state that when Jeri went with Jack into the public-sex place in Paris, and saw all the, uh, equipment available, and all the, um, participants, she started crying. Whereupon Jack told her, "that's such a turn-off!":puke:

They spent $70 million investigating Clinton's affair with Monica, and anything else on his private part they could find, but they think THIS sleazeball would make a great U.S. senator? Ahh, the Grotesque Oil Party!:crazy:

Obama for senate...PLEASE!
:kick:

B-)

11. what kind of man...
What kind of man forces a woman like that into sex clubs? How can you have trouble getting stimulated by that? I mean, I don't think I'd ever want to leave the bedroom if I was married to 7 of 9. Why drag her into a sex club? Isn't it more exciting when a woman like that (well, any woman, actually) gives herself to you willingly rather than having to force her?

13. The Smoking Gun has a copy of the papers.
If you want to read them. Heavily edited, though.

My wife's nickname for Voyager was "borg babes in space" These sex charges are really going to make the race more interesting.

16. this is the part that is the final blood boiler for me:
"Ryan denied the accusations and said he felt bad for their son, now 9, that she would falsely accuse him."

That piece of shit Ryan. Lie, deny responsibility, invoke warm, fuzzy parental concern, AND call your ex-wife a child-hating liar all in one sentence. I can just see his innocently fluttering eyelashes as he said it too! :mad:
