John McCain (R-AZ) courts the Catholic vote, part of a larger effort to build bridges with religious voters, The New York Times reports today that his informal adviser on Catholic outreach is Deal W. Hudson. In 2004, Hudson advised Bush-Cheney 04, serving as the architect of a Republican effort to court Catholic voters. But Hudson was forced to resign after accusations of sexual misconduct, as the Times reported on August 19, 2004: query.nytimes.com/gst/ful...E3FF93AA2575BC0A9629C8B63 No one regrets my past mistakes more than I do, Mr. Hudson wrote in a column posted yesterday on the online edition of National Review announcing his resignation. At the time, I dealt with this in an upright manner, and the matter was satisfactorily resolved long ago, he wrote, without specifying the accusations. Mr. Hudson, 54, said he had been happily married to his current wife for 17 years. Called for comment, he declined. [
] A person involved with the universitys investigation said that a freshman in one of Mr. Hudsons classes reported to the university that, after she had become drunk at a bar, Mr. Hudson made sexual advances toward her. After a period of weeks, she charged him with sexual harassment. The accusations were made near the end of a school year, and Mr. Hudson left academia. Hudsons ties to the Bush administration are extensive. He reportedly said of Karl Rove after the 2000 election, I have to be careful what I say because I might make him sound like he is God or something. McCain has come under fire from Catholics for seeking out and accepting the endorsement of Pastor John Hagee, who had previously referred to the Catholic Church as the Great Whore and anti-Christ. A search of McCains campaign website returns one result for Hudson.

Ummmmmmm. Wow. Inappropriate behavior in a BAR? I mean, a church sure, but a bar? Oh the humanity. Seriously, we need a law.
As a country, the USA has deeply injured the world and it's a national obligation to right that wrong as much as possible. For us to try to safeguard our 2nd Amendment rights at the expense of lives of innocents worldwide doesn't fly in my book. -- Pinguinite http://freedom4um.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=78060&Disp=44#C44
