In reply to the discussion: Virginia Republican: I stand by my attacks on LGBT people as ‘soulless’ and ‘self-destructive’ [View all]atreides1
(16,799 posts)He is being dragged into the investigation that involves the current governor of Virginia, Bob McDonnell...both of them received gifts from the same business owner...granted the governor got more, but Cuccinelli also received some perks to include buying stock in the company.
And it seems that when Virginia was sued over a tax bill, the attorney general didn't appear to be all that concerned in defending the Commonwealth. Perhaps it may have had to do with his conflict of interest, since Cuccinelli had owned stock in the company and sold it at a profit either right before or soon after the lawsuit was filed.
So, now he's got to deflect all the s**t that will be falling on him from McDonnell..and how best to do that? First he creates a BS site saying that an anti-sodomy law that was struck down by a Federal Appeals Court as being unconstitutional, is meant to protect minors form predators...when it's an archaic law only meant to prevent consenting adults from performing a sexual act...and when that doesn't seem to be working he actually show everyone that he's a hateful bigot.
I guess he thinks this will keep him safe and off the radar!
