Verdict: Guilty in Allen case
In case you missed it...

Lawmaker vows to appeal conviction, but colleagues urge him to quit




VIERA - State Rep. Bob Allen sat stone-faced Friday as each person in the six-member jury confirmed his or her guilty verdict on a single misdemeanor count of solicitation for prostitution.

But the seven-year Merritt Island Republican still adamantly maintains he did not agree to pay $20 to perform a sex act on undercover Titusville police Officer Daniel Kavanaugh.

When the verdict was announced, Allen reached back, over the partition, and touched his wife's hand for a moment. (snif!) Beth Allen has been a constant presence in Allen's legal proceedings, most recently spending the five-day trial in a seat behind the defense table.

"We are continuing to seek justice," Allen said afterward. "I am innocent. I have done nothing wrong. My family, my God and my good constituents know that."

Another anti-gay gay Republican down.

Dude, just come out of the closet. In fact, if all these self-loathing bastards would just acknowledge who they are, the world would be so much better off.

It's okay, Bob. Be yourself, man. Jeez....

1. Looks like he has a wide stance
He should hook up with Larry Craig and swap men's room tales.
