Patricia Todd, Gay Lawmaker, Threatens to expose adulterous colleagues

Patricia Todd(D) threatens to expose affairs of some of her Republican colleagues due to their opposition of same-sex marriages.

“I will not stand by and allow legislators to talk about ‘family values’ when they have affairs, and I know of many who are and have. I will call our elected officials who want to hide in the closet OUT,” state Rep. Patricia Todd said without naming who she planned to expose, AL.com reported.

Her comments followed Republican criticism last week of a federal court ruling that overturned Alabama’s same-sex marriage ban. Ms. Todd took particular issue with State House Speaker Mike Hubbard, a Republican who called the ruling “outrageous,” and Attorney General Luther Strange’s efforts to get a two-week stay on the judge’s order.

More mud slinging, and here I thought the election was over. Oh how wrong I was..... It's obvious these two groups will NEVER learn to get along. Is it too late to kick them both out, write up new rules for ruling, and start completely fresh? Yeah, I know, wishful thinking. Oh well, get ready for some names then....

You know what happens to rats right?

What an idiot, did she just say she was going to blackmail people who don't agree with her? Keep running your mouth dummy.

I think its fair enough.

If they had of objected on the grounds of tax breaks that are in place for married couples due to the expectation of children being in the picture or inheritance laws or something along those lines and then she made the threat then it would be out of order.
To oppose it on the grounds of family values while being an adulterous p.o.s is hypocrisy of the highest order and should be exposed when coming from politicians.
Politicians get away with the whole "do as I say not as I do" thing to much

I fully support what this dyke is doing

P.s I dont see this as blackmail, I think shes giving people a fair chance to rethink their actions and words, OK maybe its borderline blackmail but f**K*em.

Why do they always have to announce that they're gonna announce something. Just freaking get on with it!

Sounded like she also said she was gonna drag a couple of them "out of the closet"...

I mean, I've never heard that in reference to anything but hidden homosexuality.




Them Republicans are backwards as well...
"Outrageous" that two men in love can marry...?


Get over yourself you ultra right wing freaks!

yeah I laughed when I first saw this story. making threats like that is not a good idea if your the only politician there and you have no back up.

Seems like pretty standard procedure. Make up laws and pass laws via extortion. After all, laws are just legalized extortion created by people (government) with a vested interest in the outcomes. Oh wait, that's a conflict of interest, would they do that ? LOL.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out (or if it quietly goes away...)

and why is she shocked that in Alabama republicans are opposed to same sex marriaged. isnt it expected that there going to be against it.

The tabloids are foaming at the mouth.

Can't wait for all the stories and denials.

Enquirering minds need to know !!!



Ms. Todd must be lobbying for a Cabinet position under a Hillary Administration !!!!

I didnt get that from what she said.

You wanna object to something based on family morals make sure you have some first. You go round talking BS to get votes then your BS should be exposed as far as Im concerned

Reminds of politicians who call for mandatory drug testing, I wonder if they would be willing to take them themselves?

Last I checked being a hypocrite is legal blackmail and extortion on the other hand not so.

Perhaps it's more of 'keep claiming superiour moral ground and I will let everyone know you are an adulterer'.

I think this is definitely going to fall into that borderline of blackmail and extortion. I mean, let's be honest, no Democrat has ever cheated on his family and espoused family values? Are we then going to have Republicans start publishing their names? This would SERIOUSLY start getting muddy if that were the case.

A little "Tell on us, we'll tell on your friends! Neener, neener, neener!"

The hypocrisy is she believes in freedom but wants to limit the same freedoms she enjoys.



Democrats often do that.

That's one thing I DO NOT believe in. Especially with her being gay, she should respect this choice if that is the case. If someone is in the closet, there's a reason for it. She might have been once. She should sympathize with that IF she is planning on exposing someone in the closet. If someone is in the closet, big if, leave them be. It's up to them, and only them to come out, when THEY are ready, not when YOU are ready to expose them. You don't know the consequences of your actions.

You said the word "You" a few times in that post...

Who are you referring to when you say that?
