Since this is an election year, a look at
Republican morals and values in
action is called for. So let's meet some
Republicans who represent their party's values:
Jim Bunn Congressman of Oregon: With his success due
in great part to support from the Christian Coalition,
Bunn won his congressional seat,
then immediately ditched his wife (and mother of his
five children), married a staffer, and put his new wife
on the state payroll for the unheard-of salary of
$97,500.

John Allen Burt, Republican anti-abortion activist,
convicted of sexually molesting a
15 year old girl at the home for troubled girls that he
ran.

Ken Calvert, Congressman (R-Ca), champion of the
Christian Coalition and its "family values."
Sued as an alimony deadbeat by his
ex-wife. Said "We can't forgive what occurred
between the President and Lewinsky." In 1993 he was
caught by police receiving oral
sex from a prostitute and attempted to flee the scene.

cocaine user.

Helen Chenoweth, Congresswoman (R-Id.). Admitted to
a six-year adulterous affair with
a married associate. In 1995, Chenoweth had
denied the affair when asked about it by The Spokane
Spokesman-Review, but now she claims a pardon from a
higher authority: "I've asked for God's forgiveness, and
I've received it," she revealed.
