Congressman gets caught on Craiglist
What started last month with an anonymous woman's Craigslist dating search for men who don't "look like toads" ended Wednesday with the resignation of two-term Rep. Christopher Lee, R-N.Y., a married father who passed himself off as a divorced lobbyist when he sent her a topless muscle photo of himself.
Within hours, he had quit his $174,000-a-year job and issued this statement:
"I regret the harm that my actions have caused my family, my staff and my constituents. I deeply and sincerely apologize to them all. I have made profound mistakes and I promise to work as hard as I can to seek their forgiveness. The challenges we face in Western New York and across the country are too serious for me to allow this distraction to continue, and so I am announcing that I have resigned my seat in Congress effective immediately."
Answering a Washington-area "Women for Men" ad last month, Lee described himself as 39, divorced, a lobbyist and a "fit, fun classy guy." And to prove it, he e-mailed the shirtless photo to the unnamed government worker from Maryland.
Once she figured out the man she thought might have been a JC Penney model was actually a 46-year-old congressman, she went to Gawker with copies of their bantering e-mails about bad Craigslist dates.
I thought we elected smart people, Imagine that. Will they ever learn?????

Oh, I'm sure he's smart. Probably got straight A's through college, and I strongly suspect he went to an upper tier school.
I find it sad that even on this board we condemn this conduct. We're supposed to be open-minded here, aren't we. Just a guy with a need.
Quite frankly, I think he should have stuck it out. The past indicates you can survive. Look at Bill Clinton. David Vitter. Others I can't remember right now.

I agree Charles , but i think it was the picture they splashed everywhere of him shirtless with his face showing that made it a point of no return situation and of all places Craigslists!!

The odd/sad thing is that trying to get a little pussy is cause for resignation but spending $1.5 trillion dollars we don't have is business as usual.

does the woman deserve shunning or how 'bout a lawsuit?
i'd like to see the exact wording of the ad the woman placed to see if she had any basis at all to out the poor guy.

It is sad PJ , but thats not "scandalious" Im sure the girl will get her 15 of fame, how sad that is. Just like Tigers girls, but what goes around comes around.

You know I was wondering myself, was this some sort of set up?
I care less and less about what a politician does "behind closed doors" (that is between him and his family, if he is married) IMHO. Again, news media looking to make quick cheap ratings. I kinda feel sorry for this guy. He should have stuck it out and not resigned.
