on Sam Scandal
As for the sex scandal of Mayor Adams I'm SO MAD and DISGUSTED I could scream!
I'm mad at the media for publicising and talking about the story Tuesday on the most wonderful, historic, joyous of all political days. I'm mad at Willamette week for doing a multiple page spread on it today - just one day after we have all been filled with such hope and promise and I'm totally grossed out - not because I now get to picture him having sex although it's an image which doesn't exactly make me think of one's professional accomplishments - but I'm furious with him because now I get to picture him having sex with someone that has the same age span as Charlee and I do. He's old enough to be that guy's father! I don't care what gender he bends towards - I voted for him and felt proud to help elect the first openly gay mayor - but I'd like to throw rotten tomatoes at him now.
"
It's so wrong for so many reasons and it seems that all the paper cares about is "did it happen a month/week/day before he turned 18 or after his 18th birthday party?
