Report: Democrat Rep. David Wu admits sexual encounter with donor’s young daughter; Update: Nancy-come-lately calls for gesture investigation
Wu-hoo! Hey, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and Nancy Pelosi, I’m over here!
When last I wrote about the bizarre behavior of Democrat Rep. David Wu of Oregon, it was February of this year.
I said he needed a Democrat leadership intervention after he freaked out his staff, posed in the above costume obtained by Willamette Week, and engaged in other inexplicable antics. As I noted, Wu’s behavior has caused Capitol Hill concern dating back to 2003. But none of the swamp-draining Democrat leaders bothered to do anything about it. And Wu went on a national media tour asserting he can continue to hold office.
Now, this from the Oregonian:
Sources: Young woman accuses Oregon Rep. David Wu of aggressive, unwanted sexual encounter
A distraught young woman called U.S. Rep. David Wu’s Portland office this spring, accusing him of an unwanted sexual encounter, according to multiple sources.
When confronted, the Oregon Democrat acknowledged a sexual encounter to his senior aides but insisted it was consensual, the sources said.
The woman is the daughter of a longtime friend and campaign donor. She apparently did not contact police at the time.
One person who heard the voice mail described the woman as upset, breathing heavily and “distraught.”
In the voice mail, the young woman accused Wu of aggressive and unwanted sexual behavior, according to sources with direct knowledge of the message and its contents.
Reporters could not verify the young woman’s age. Notes on Facebook over the past 18 months indicate she graduated from high school in 2010. California records show she registered to vote in August.
RedState reviewed Wu’s unseemly history here, including this:
Allegation of assault on woman in 1970s in college shadow U.S. Rep. David Wu
This is an actual headline from an article in The Oregonian in October, 2004, on the eve of his reelection to a fourth term in Congress.
From the article:
David Wu, future Oregon congressman, and the woman later dated in their junior year. But that spring, in 1976, she broke things off. A few months later, an encounter occurred that neither wants to discuss.
That summer, the 21-year-old Wu was brought to the campus police annex after his ex-girlfriend said he tried to force her to have sex, according to Raoul K. Niemeyer, then a patrol commander who questioned him.
Wu had scratches on his face and neck, and his T-shirt was stretched out of shape, Niemeyer said.
Earlier, someone had interrupted a scuffle in the woman’s dorm room. A Stanford professor said the woman told him the next day that Wu had angrily attacked her. An assistant dean who counseled the woman for two months said that the woman called it attempted rape and that Wu used a pillow to muffle her screams.
Wu told police that what happened was consensual. “He said, ‘We just, I was with my girlfriend, and we just got a little carried away,’ ” Niemeyer remembered. After that, he said, Wu “clammed up.”
The woman declined to press charges. However, this episode has apparently been well known for a long while…
Geez. Does he need to get caught Tweeting lurid photos of his un-costumed package before Democrat leaders — in particular, Democrat women — step up and do something?
Hello, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz? Nancy Pelosi? Bueller? Bueller?
***
Update….You won’t believe this. Never mind. You will. News media misidentified Wu as a Republican.
On a related note: Anthony Weiner says he is cured.
***
Update: Monday morning update… Here comes Nancy-come-lately.
Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi has requested an ethics panel investigation of Rep. David Wu over a woman’s reported accusation that she had an “unwanted sexual encounter” with the Oregon Democrat last year.
Pelosi issued a statement Sunday night calling on the House Ethics Committee to begin looking into the allegations against Wu.
Wu and Pelosi had a telephone conversation Saturday but neither politician has disclosed any details.
Despite calls for his resignation, Wu kept publically silent Sunday.
This is the same dysfunctional ethics panel that has dragged its feet on Capitol Hill’s mountain of other dirty laundry.
Chalk up another victory for Nancy-come-lately and the great feminist clean-up of Washington!

Why are you talking about this guy?
Oh, I know why – because the terrorist in Norway isn’t muslim.
Ok, cool….. let’s continue to talk about this guy.
Rep. Wu, this song is dedicated to you! Bye bye!
If one has no god, and no morals, and no ethics, one can never be accused of hypocrisy.
Jerry Studds sodomizing 16 year old boys working as Congressional pages.
Barney Frank trading services with a gay prostitute in exchange for letting his house be used as a whore house.
Bill Clinton. Enough said.
Republicans resign, Democrats don’t. Ends justify the means. Liberal women are against date rape, but not enough to throw committed Marxists from office.
Nancy the laggard, not leader. When visiting Italy, she’s referred to as “La Ritardataria Osso-testa.”
In Germany, she’s know as “Nancy Der Dumm Nachzügler.”
Why is it the Europeans get it, but her constituents don’t?

HI I_LOVE_MY_COUNTRY–#100,101 (software bug alive and sick). The shooting in Tucson and the Norway bombing / shooting are the work of evil sick minded losers with real mental problems. They are not related to any rational thinking or political parties.

However, like our present Regime says, “Never let a good crisis go to waste!”. And over the years I have admired Michelle Malkin’s equal opportunity journalism and reporting. She always takes on those who are wrong.

Certainly you are entitled to your own opinions. However, you are not entitled to your own facts!

Maybe SanFranNan could get Congressman Woo-Hoo (Sexaholic) a fair “hearing” in the house. I suggest a really experienced mixed panel with Bawney Fwank (Peewee Herman costume), Teddy Kennedy (dig him up–Casanova costume), and another good Senate colleague–John Edwards (if he isn’t in the can yet–Silky Pony costume). Should be quite a show.

And to improve Nan’s multi lingual nicknames–in El Espanol–”La Tonta Corrupta” works at my house.

There is a man bites dog element to a massive terror attack that doesn’t invole Muslims.
100 Muslim terror attacks and thousands of victims from now, ‘I Hate America’ will still be dredging up the Norwegian guy, Tom McVeigh and Baruch Goldstein as the once a decade whacko who isn’t Muslim.
Yeah, don’t go to the other thread that Michelle M posted regarding this attack this weekend.
Maybe you missed it while you were in your mommy’s basement this weekend. No cable access?
Look across and see the Related list.
jrgdds,
You’d get a real charge out of John and his wife is very nice as well. Like myself, John is just another Chicago Polski tired of Oregon’s Blue State version of ‘fair’.
‘Fair’ is leaping head-first into Prog’s every wildest enviro/social fantasy. ‘Fair’ is giving the OEA anything and everything they want on a silver platter. ‘Fair’ is imposing ever more stringent regulations based on junk science. Fair is affording OPERS the continued authority to make unrealistic promises to retirees.
The fairness is killing me! But we can’t even have an adult discussion until Wu is removed from office. Dems continued to look the other way on this freak for fear of losing his seat.
Now we’ll do it on -our- terms.
Nancy was hoping he would switch parties before she had to do something.
Is anyone else still having problems loading this blog? The lead story loads but the rest don’t, and are delayed. I have no problems with other blogs on the net.
I’ve been having site problems for a few weeks. I’ve learned to work around it. Plus my anti-virus software is working over time. There seems to be something concealed in one or more of the ads. I figure this site is frequent hacker target.
No, Fair is a place where you ride rides, eat cotton candy and step in monkey poop. FIFY
Just sayin’ is all…
yes, let’s. You go first.
wUUt
her constituents don’t? Being San Francisco (aka: Sodom By the Bay) a good enough answer? It is the city that cheered Nikita Khrushchev and booed Willy Mayes. The Bathhouse boys just love her.
It’s embarrassing that this clown is “my” Congressman, despite my best efforts to keep him out of DC.
Forgive San Franciscans for they know not what they do when they vote for Nancy Pelosi.
In Nancy Pelosi’s District (CD-8 = most of San Francisco)
34.1% are foreign born
43.9% speak a language other than English at home.

And then most of the rest of Pelosi’s constituents are still recovering from a 1960′s haze.
People have seriously told me that they just look at the endorsements in the (very liberal) Bay Guardian and vote the way they are told to vote.
It is very sad.
The whole thing is disgusting. Including his “tiger blood” picture…
…Seriously – that picture’s creeping me the #$%@ out! Can we put something else as the leading story so I don’t vomit every time I come to the website?

Too close to the truth.

The left is battling hard to contain this little snafu. Tonight, a Yahoo news blog, the Ticket posted an article titled, Rep. David Wu accused of unwanted sexual encounter. I commented on there several times, but my comments were removed repeatedly when I pointed out how the Democrats repeatedly protect people like Wu. I started posting comments about my postings showing up, getting screen shots of them and posting the screen shots on the web. Gee, suddenly some of my comments started showing up again, yet they continued to remove any comments suggesting the Democrats protecting their own.
After 24 pages of screen shots, I gave up.
The article at this time has been posted for 17 hours, yet only has 1342 comments on it. Many others commented about theirs being removed also. Normally an article like this generates 3-6,000 comments in the same period.
Meanwhile, on the Yahoo front page has been a headline titled, Embattled Oregon Rep. Wu won’t seek re-election to House, but over the past hour, it takes you to a 404 not found page.
Fitting for the left when talking about ethics.
The HTML file is named, democrat-david-wu-wont-seek-election-house-214532335.html.
Someone is either not sure of their sources, or Pelosi decided she might need a little Wu, Wu, Wu.
