brief thoughts on duvall incident


this is what i find most disturbing about duvall's exposed sexual escapades this week.

the gentleman he was offering illicit information to (regarding his grossly unethical behavior with female lobbyists) didn't seem at all phased by his crude acts.

here we have a man with a wife, kids and a civic responsibility to engage in political activity that follows an ethical process, telling another man (with pride) that he is having these little escapades with female lobbyists. yet, the gentleman doesn't once ask, "dude ... you have a wife. what the hell are you doing whoring around? furthermore, what are you thinking pulling this kind of activity into our organization? do you seriously think that i find your behavior appropriate? do you honestly believe this information will make me respect you more? for the love man. get a life. in the meantime, i'm reporting you for being an embarrassment to this assembly. "

well. apparently that conversation never occurred to mr. duvall's bff in the assembly. because he just sat there. probably astounded, curious, and impressed that this aged, fat, unattractive individual could score any action from someone who hadn't previously vowed (prior to finding out how big of a douche bag he'd become) to lay next to him for the rest of his life.

i think we can all agree mr. duvall is in the wrong.

but my bigger fear is that we're not concerned about his little buddy that didn't seem to question his activity in the first place. i think that's terrifying. really terrifying. and if you don't feel the same ... then i guess the problem is much larger than the california legislator's office.
