GOP leader's skinny-dip confession stuns Utah

[TheTomLovell]

No different?

[Raul48819]

She took the money and promised to keep quiet.

And then she comes back for more...

Typical American whore.

[Timmy456543]

Oh wow! If he gets a standing ovation for that, imagine how crazy the dance party must be for everyone who didn't dabble in pedophilia and commit extortion!

@Blockygraphics

[no1saphead]

I have a lot of parody( I won't ) . Its a damned good thing Kevin doesn't smoke or ,he would really be in big big trouble.

[jimisback]

How old was he 25 years ago?

[Zile77]

Honesty 25 yrs later after he's already in congress? Yeah, that'll work, NOT!

[Wildkkat1]

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman" Miss Lowenski! Monica Lowenski switched to the Republican party, because Democrats left a bad taste in her mouth !!!!

[ITRIPOVERMYCOCK]

child molester who gets a standing ovation?

[cephalocide]

wow, they gave a child molestor a standing ovation...

[SirFelix377]

Utah, Salt Lake City? Mormons? Hmmm?

A mistake? Hmmm.....

A standing ovation for a child predator. hmmmm...

It wasn't like he has only a couple of years older than her, he was many many years older than her.

It was not a mistake, it was a sick pathetic attempt to corrupt a child for his own sick gratification.

[ShaneyElderberry]

I have tremendous respect for a guy like him. He realizes that he feels bad about what he had done, and was willing to put his reputation behind what he felt was the right thing to do - admit what had happened years ago.

Guys like him deserve to be in our government - honesty should be appreciated.

[spungii117]

lol child molsters? WOW u conservatives always seem to amaze me. Your whats wrong with this country. sicko

[kakompo]

A standing ovation?! So all the clappers would not mind if this happened to their 15 yr old teenage daughters. ? That's what they are trying to imply?

[kakompo]

So in your opinion a 15 year old is old enough and can totally understand the possible consequences of her actions? Come on! Are you kidding me?

[EricIndiana]

Yes I am serious.

No I am not kidding you.

Are you kidding me that this chick comes out 15 years later, pretending its not for her 15 seconds of fame?

Which came after her $150,000 pay out?

You cant take hush money and then out the guy and pretend like you a victim.

If she was a victim and abused then she should have come forward off the bat, but she was a total willing accomplice in the whole thing and now wants to play the part of victim.

Boo hoo for her.

[scampywiak]

Couldn't agree more. He's a scum bag. So is she.

[kakompo]

You know what age[she was] when he payed the hush money to her?

[EricIndiana]

She was 22 years old.

2002

Rep. Garn and his wife arranged a meeting with Maher and her Mormon bishop and offered to pay her $20,000.

But Maher's husband insisted it wasn't enough, and she demanded $150,000. Garn paid up, and had his lawyer drafted a non-disclosure agreement in which she pledged not to go public.

She emailed his son in 08...

"nothing will stop me from getting exactly what this matter needs, and that is justice and compensation."

"Compensation" being the key word there.

[kakompo]

In other words this woman was out to get him for what happened some years back and make as much money as she possibly can. What is world coming to...

[EricIndiana]

Actually what happened was:

This chick was old enough at the time to know what she was doing with a married man was wrong.

She got involved with another fella that wanted to take advantage of the situation after this guy became a political figure.

The husband negotiated a deal that would prevent his own wife from ever telling her story(some husband).

Now she has no money left because hubby spent it all and now she wants attention and more money, and at the same time play abused victim.

[kakompo]

Mark Foley, Gov. Mark Sanford,Rep. Duval and now this one. geez where did all the morals go? ZING

[mfpdx1]

Hm, funny how, when ya think ya have God on ur side, he seems to sanction EVERYTHING you do......hm...

[HERONSKI128]

they clapped because they are all corrupt.

[hunghh]

They gave him a standing ovation because he's scored an underage, sexy young thing. At their age, it's harder to come by.

[IHarmer]

The standing ovation was pathetic! What is wrong with you people in Utah?

[sinawava42]

Yes, Utah is that backwards. If you are a Mormon and a Republican you can get away with anything in this state.

[beankrom]

So we call pedophilia a "mistake" I think most people call it a felony.

[asf2345asdf]

Why are they clapping? Is Utah that backwards that when a 30 year old man gets naked with a 15 year old girl it gets a standing ovation?
