ONE MINUTE SCANDAL
WHAT WAS THE MARRIED CONGRESSMAN THINKING answering a woman seeking man ad on Craigslist January 15 posing as a single lobbyist? Was it the first time he's done this, or only that he's first-time caught?
We live in the most transparent, tell-all-for-quick-fame, indiscrete society in history, so why do men seeking easy sex act in the most blase, opaque manner?
The woman on Craigslist tossed out the bait asking: why do men on this website all "look like toads."
Lee, 46, a second term Rep. congressman from New 's 26th district couldn't resist, replying (wink, wink, nod, nod):
"Hope I'm not a toad. :) i'm a very fit fun classy guy. Live in Cap Hill area. 6ft 190lbs blond/blue. 39.. Lobbyist. I promise not to disappoint," according to Gawker, the website that broke the story.
His response was accompanied by a husky, shirtless self-photo. Since it's now all over the web, I won't publish it.
He promised not to disappoint? All I can say is it's appropriate that he resigned today, freeing up our country's air and internet space to deal with more pressing issues. Or should I say to free us to deal with less salacious forms of human depravity, like slowing down our national economic wreckage?
The man who wasn't supposed to be a toad turns out to have regressed to acting like a reptile. He's disappointed his wife and family, constituency, party and the public's trust. He's ruined his reputation. Good riddance he's stepped down from Congress so quickly. That fact alone implies this probably wasn't the first time Lee has done this. There may be more.
He should be long gone from D.C. before sunrise.
With or without his shirt. So much for fit, fun and classy. I hope he can save his marriage and salvage his life. Mercifully his days on Capitol Hill are over.

Lee, a businessman who won his seat in 2008, cultivated a family-values voting record in the House, earning an 88 percent approval rating from the American Conservative Union for his 2010 votes. He voted in favor of a ban on federal funding of abortion in the health care overhaul, in line with the group's position on the proposed ban, which was defeated in the House. He also voted against the repeal of the military's Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy prohibiting service by openly gay men and women.
He served on the House Ways and Means Committee and was active on economic revitalization issues. He has a business background stemming from his family's manufacturing enterprises.
