Scenes from an exemplary Republican's life
Yup, it's a glimpse into Republican honcho Fred Malek, former campaign manager for Poppa Bush (until he was detected) and currently trying to buy the Washington baseball club....

"After checking the blood-spattered pants of one of the men at the state crime laboratory in Springfield, it was determined that the stains were animal and not human blood. Backes said the men then changed their story and said they had "caught a dog and were barbecuing it."
Police then found the skinned animal on a spit in the park. The insides of the dog had been removed, and a bottle of liquor was found on a nearby park table. Backes said the men told him they had been drinking earlier in the evening at a West Bluff tavern.
One of the men arrested in the incident, in which a dog was killed, skinned, gutted and barbecued on a spit, was Frederick V. Malek, 22, of Berwyn, Ill.
...Similar questions may have been raised after a recent column <"Fred Malek, Then and Now," Feb. 4> that recounted Malek's abuse of the public trust and public servants during the Nixon years and his role in carrying out Richard Nixon's disgusting hunt for Jews in the Bureau of Labor Statistics. He was only in his thirties at the time, his friends say in his defense.
The SEC instituted administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings against Malek, his company, Thayer Capital Partners, and two Thayer affiliates, TS Equity Partners IV L.L.C, and TC Management Partners IV L.L.C. The SEC charged that in 1998 the Connecticut treasurer, Paul J. Silvester, used state pension investments in Malek's company to reward a friend and political supporter, William DiBella, former majority leader of the Connecticut Senate."

2. Isn't it?
I'm reminded that James Dobson makes big medicine on his website of his beating a helpless dachsund with his belt, as if that were something to be admired....

4. Perhaps It Is Some Kind Of Initiation, Sir
It is certainly a recurring motif....

9. There Are Such Reports From Family Members, Sir
They are credible, in my view. It is certainly a widely recognized leading indicator of sociopathic and even psychotic personality....

11. JFC!
Is this what Dobson thinks of as child-rearing? If I saw anyone treating a dog like that, never mind a child, he's have the athorities on him so fast he'd never figure out what happened. Goddamn fucking "conservative" values!:grr:

8. What a heartless gutless bastard Malek is!
Maybe he can get together with Bush and Cheney, and the three of them can cop some frogs and blow 'em up with firecrackers after they all retire. Fucking repuke perverts.

13. You might recall he also drew up lists of Jews for Nixon
and he's mixed up with Scooter Libby....

"And as Scooter Libby's new website shows, Malek is part of the Libby Defense Fund's "Advisory Committee."
Which raises a natural question:
Why does Scooter Libby want the support of a political hatchetman from the Nixon administration who not only engaged in extremely unsavory activities, but then was caught trying to cover them up?"

10. "Only in his thirties at the time"?
What the hell is that supposed to mean? I guess among Republicans, adulthood is not thought to begin until sometime in the forties, and therefore, anything done in the thirties can be chalked up to adolescent pranks.

14. Reminds one of Hyde's "youthful indiscretion" as a boy of 44.....
So much for that "party of personal responsibility," eh?
