Another "Family Values" Christian Conservative Republican resigns due to a sex scandal

Eight term Republican Congressman, Mark Souder (R-IN) -- just resigned after admitting to an extramarital affair with a staffer. Here's the kicker.... Souder recorded a video with the same woman praising abstinence education.

Priceless.


If I had a nickel for every Christian conservative family values Republican involved in a sex scandal.... here's a gallery of these hypocrites.

From HuffPost:

In stepping down, he asked God for forgiveness in a rambling, all-caps public statement. "I SINNED AGAINST GOD, MY WIFE AND MY FAMILY BY HAVING A MUTUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH A PART-TIME MEMBER OF MY STAFF," he wrote. "MY COMFORT IS THAT GOD IS A GRACIOUS AND FORGIVING GOD TO THOSE WHO SINCERELY SEEK HIS FORGIVENESS AS I DO."

Forgiveness, however, is not a quality that Souder shares with his Lord. No Republican has been more outspoken in Congress in his moral condemnation of Americans who use illicit drugs. In order to punish such sinning, Souder championed and vigorously defended perhaps the least forgiving law on the federal books: the denial of federal student aid for any student convicted of drug possession, no matter how minor.
