To the Editor:
Tracking the last eight months or so of Del. Ken Plums' Opinion columns in the Connection Newspapers, the bad topics are the Tea Party (Defender of a balanced budget, right to own a gun, and worshiping our Creator), and certain (but not all) ethics of political figures. According to Plum only some political positions are bad. Absent is any commentary on sexual perversion: in Delegate Plum's record of commentary, the hypocrisy is glaring.
We have a liberal serving member of the House of Delegates who has been convicted of having sexual relations with a child on an all-too-convenient work release program to fulfill his elected duty to represent his District in the House. The argument is advanced that the heavily liberal district deserves to be represented in the General Assembly. Having a convicted sex offender serving a jail sentence concurrently while voting his conscience on the future of Virginia in the House appears to be acceptable to License Plate #1 Del. Plum.
The chickens are coming home to roost with liberal-sponsored sexual revolution of the 60s. We are now at the stage where "Just say No" is the answer. Is it reasonable for a 17-year-old female political intern to just say "No!” to an experienced 40-year old male political product of the sexual revolution 60s? How many of us would happily fork over $167,000 to spare our daughters of having to make that choice?
