Clarification about Congressman David Wu
An observation about David Wu and how he has been received nationally.
David Wu has gotten some attention in the national press, as one might expect from resigning for a sex scandal — and a sex scandal that he deservedly must resign his seat.
That’s one thing he’s been covered for — in one quick stroke. That is the picture that has ended up accompanying this story.
It needs to be cleared up for the national media that the two items — the history of sexual misconduct 9re: rape) and the Tiger costume are not directly related.
Indirectly, perhaps… the story that accompanies the Tiger Costume is a man with psychological issues, that can be placed nest to his sexual misconduct.
But the Tiger Costume did not come into play with the Sex.
In other words: David Wu’s scandal does not involve being a Furry.
This is a matter I felt needed to be cleared up. I hope I cleared it up. It probably won’t solve the problem to point it out, though — it’s a bit too easy for comedic purposes to conflate the two matters.
