They did it again. These Republicans are unbelievable. This time it's the head of Young Republicans nationwide. It's another gay sex scandal. This one is even more serious because it involves non-consensual sex.
Glenn Murphy Jr. is chairman of the Clark County Republican Party and was just elected president of the Young Republican National Federation. But now he has to give up his spot because of yet another gay Republican sex scandal. He claims it's because he mysteriously and suddenly got a business offer he couldn't turn down. Yes, I'm sure it had nothing to do with the investigation the police just started against you.
Get a load of what this guy did...
...he lowered the pants of a young man while he was sleeping and tried to give him oral. Come on! Are there no bounds? The other man was not interested, was not gay and was not even awake. But when he did wake up he pursued charges against Murphy.
This isn't even the first time for Murphy. He did almost the same exact thing back in 1998 to another young man. Back then the boy he accosted in his sleep was 21. This time around, the boy as 22. Murphy is 33. By the way, why is a creepy 33 year old guy the head of the Young Republicans? Especially one who already has a track record of trying to give guys oral while they're sleeping.
Are there any Republicans left in the country who are not gay or involved in a sex scandal? It doesn't seem like it anymore. I think I left the Republican Party just in the nick of time, while I still have my pants on.
Watch The Young Turks Here
PS -- We do a segment called Republican Sexcapades every Thursday on our show. And in over a year that we have been doing the segment, we have never run out of material. I honestly can't believe how many sex scandals there have been involving Republicans lately. It makes our job too easy, and too much fun.
Mo Rocca has appeared on a bunch of shows, including 'The Daily Show,' 'I Love the 80s,'...

46. Dear Carla:
As a lesbian in a committed relationship (not out chasing young girls, I take offense to your comments. I don't think you are the "expert" on going to hell. You'd better refresh your bible readings. God says "love thy neighbor as you love thyself". So either you don't love yourself, or maybe you should take a good look in the mirror. God pity your neighbor, it's views like yours that keep the "fuel" of hatred burning.

47. There is a difference between sex between consenting adults regardless of sexual preference or inclination, and sex between an adult and a child. All homosexuals are NOT pedophiles! Some sexual predators vote Republican too. Some Republicans are even homosexuals! This is why whenever ANY politician regardless of party starts talking about "family values," it should throw up a red flag to anybody who is still capable of THINKING for THEMSELVES!

48. Fred and Carla are more offended by the sexuality of the offenders than they are by the crimes they're committing. It makes you wonder about their own moral compasses. Is rape ok if it's heterosexual?
A good part of the problem in many of these cases involving gay men stems from the judgements of people like you and your self-righteous brethren. If these men weren't traumatized by their innate sexuality earlier in life, there is a good chance that they wouldn't have become the closeted predators that we know them to be today. The "Gay Leadership" has no need to express its admonishments of these criminals as they have nothing to do with the gay community. Their perversions aren't the sexual acts their performing, rather in the manner in which they're committed.
I hope, for your sakes, that your children aren't homosexually predisposed, and so traumatized by your bigotry that they're similarly closeted and criminally inclined.

49. And this has WHAT to do with John Edwards??? Who is trying to smear here?

50. Larry...you haven't got a clue about the bible and reading your post is quite hell enough. Here's a thought for you...If you can't spell it, don't try to quote it. Ignorance is something with which you've been multiply blessed.

51. Poor Carla...she hates gay people and all gays should burn in hell.Nice.Very nice.I wonder if any other segment of society makes her this angry?Damn.Its a good thing that GOD is more forgiving than Carla.Did Ellen cut her off on the road?or maybe shes angry that so many gay men are good looking?Whatever it is ,Its a good thing that The Almighty is more forgiving than mean ole Carla.Sometimes it turns out that people who despise gays most,are repressed themselves.Hmmmmmm.God bless us all,including mean Carla.

52. this story begs the question, are you a republican by birth or do you choose to be one?
keith at 9:56AM on Aug 11th 2007
53. I teel you what no matter if you are a republican or a democrat being gay or a lesbian is wrong and it is disgusting to even see them out in public much less to havr to think about it. The Bible says it is wrong and it is. God created men and women for them to be together, if he would have wanted men to be with men and women to be with women he would have made it that way but he didn't. Any one who has any moral values at all will understand what i am saying and especially if you are true Christian and understand the word of GOD. I may not be the best person in the world but i know right from wrong and what this Gay guy done is wrong and he should be punished he is very lucky that some one did not assault him for the act that he tried to do.

54. NATURE OR NURTURE
are republicans born that way or do they choose to be?

55. Oh and by the way GOD does love all people but the choices you make in your life are the ones you have to live with, and for the Gay idiot who said strait people are getting caught you are wrong, if you were honestly strait you would not be getting caught because you would not be doing it , I meen i am sorry for those of you who are Gay because i guarantee you your parents are ashamed of must of you and everyone talks about you bust most gays are like Little girls anyway they like all the Gossip and shopping, You dont see that to much in the south especially in louisiana where i live, it is sick to me and that is my opinion and that is why same sex marriages will never be officially legal.

57. what a comment on the economy! republicans used to be the only ones able to afford hookers. but with the increasing unaffordability of healthcare,college tuition and home ownership, maybe all the gay ones merely reflect necessary cost cutting.

58. He just assumed all Republicans were sexually repressed self loathing closet cases like himself. Now if he got caught doing it more than once just how many times do you suppose he got away with it? Or do we believe his times getting caught were his only sexual encounters? The creepy older guy being head of the Young Republicans is almost as creepy as Mark Foley being co-chair of the Missing and Exploited Children Caucus. They needed somebody with experience I guess...

59. Carla seems to have her head buried in the sand with all of the other right wing republicans who set themselves upon pedestals beyond reproach and yet fall so ungraciously. I'd half bet Carla is one of those who goes to church every sunday preaching "love thy fellow man" yet finds it acceptable to post the mindless dribble she has. Its her kind of people who are buried in the closet that always seem to land in the headlines...ironic isnt it. Maybe Carla needs to take her weenie roast elsewhere and try to save some of her own from burning in hell if she has all the answers. To my way of thinking her statement makes her equally as sick as the pedophile that was charged. Keep on keepin on Carla...you are an upstanding example of what I hope your children learn NEVER to become.

60. JESUS HATES FORNICATION = HOMOSEXUALITY and all SEXUAL IMMORALITY
REVELATION 2:14
But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
REVELATION 2:15
So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.
