‘I no longer have to be politically correct’: GOP politician arrested after grabbing a woman in her genital area

What does his lawyer have to say?

“In almost 30 years of practicing law in this town, I would say Mr. von Keyserling is the one person I would never suspect of having any inappropriate sexual predilections,” lawyer Phil Russell said to the Greenwich Time. “There was a playful gesture, in front of witnesses. It was too trivial to be considered anything of significance. To call it a sexual assault is not based in reality.”

/facepalm

Don't facepalm just yet, we can't do that until after he's a registered sex offender. He might actually be right at this point in American history.

"You know, I will just say this: John Lewis ought to look at history," LePage, who's white, said on WVOM-FM. "You It was Abraham Lincoln that freed the slaves. It was Rutherford B. Hayes and Ulysses S. Grant that fought against Jim Crow laws. A simple thank you would suffice."

oh no

We have some really stupid people in charge.

LePage is what happens when the liberal vote is split on the local level between the Dems and a third party in a two party system. He's basically a self-made Donald Trump and is still in office just because the liberals in Maine split the vote again when he was up for re-election.

I swear to fuck I've seen more TX stories like this in the last week just because I suggested to my wife that we move there so we can get a better house for cheaper money.

Stick to San Antonio or Dallas. Those are the liberal oasis's. any other podunk town is going to make you want to drown your eyeballs in bleach.

**mallister** · 2017-01-26 01:38

and austin. though the tech industry moving there in the last decade or so has kind of evened things out some.

texas is a strange place. it's hard to explain.

**Salodin** · 2017-01-26 08:54

So it's exactly like Florida. Two liberal oasis counties and a shitton of...others.

**Ragnus** · 2017-01-26 09:04

Looking at the Houston area, from what I've seen while visiting a few times it's another one of those livable areas.

**Rooney** · 2017-01-26 10:43

Fort Worth's not bad either, but it's not as liberal as the other major cities.

**Gokku** · 2017-01-26 15:35

Two North Dakota Representatives have some pretty outdated ideas for how women should be spending their Sunday mornings.

In their defense of North Dakota’s “Blue Laws” ― which require some businesses to open late on Sunday mornings and some businesses to stay closed altogether ― Representatives Bernie Satrom and Vernon Laning seemed to express that Sunday mornings should be spent time traveling back to the norms of the 1950s rather than running errands.

According to Satrom, women should spend their Sunday mornings bringing their husbands breakfast in bed.

Satrom said that Sundays should be devoted to “spending time with your wife, your husband...Making him breakfast, bringing it to him in bed and then after that go take your kids for a walk.”

Rep. Laning also chimed in with some sexist commentary.

“I don’t know about you, but my wife has no problem spending everything I earn in 6 and a half days,” he said. “And I don’t think it hurts at all to have a half day off.”

Why do we need two Dakotas.

**Zealot** · 2017-02-07 21:24

New campaign platform, you heard it here first. I will unite the Dakotas.
