Roy Zimmerman

July 30, 2008

I’m not sure how I ever missed Mr. Zimmerman considering all the time I’ve spent on YouTube. He a political satirist with many YouTube clips and his own website selling t-shirts, songbooks and songs. This is the epilogue on one of his videos.

Larry Craig, Republican Senator, Idaho –
Announced his intention to resign after pleading guilty to disorderly conduct at a restroom at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport. Currently attempting to withdraw his guilty plea.

Mark Foley, Republican Congressman, Florida –
Resigned after it was revealed he was sexually harassing male congressional pages.

Bob Allen, Republican Assemblyman, Florida –
Recently arrested for offering to perform sex acts with a male undercover policeman.

Jim West, Republican Mayor, Spokane –
Recalled for misusing his office as mayor to lure teenage boys into sexual relationships.

Ed Shrock, Republican Congressman, Virginia –
Quit when audio recordings surfaced in which he apparently solicited sex on a gay chatline.

Michael Huffington, former Republican Congressman, California –
Announced he is bisexual after narrowly losing his bid for US Senate to Diane Feinstein.

Ted Haggard, Leader of The New Life Church, Colorado and close advisor to President Bush –
Removed from all his leadership positions in the National Association of Evangelicals for patronizing a male prostitute. Now declared to be “Completely Heterosexual”.

All of them consistently used their positions of authority to deny rights to gays and lesbians.

Wow what a list … compiled a year ago … how many more can we add? (Here‘s a place to start)

See a couple of Roy’s performances
