    At first I though wtf? But the last paragraph...

    In a lengthy statement Thursday evening, Franks said he and his wife struggled with fertility.

    “I have recently learned that the Ethics Committee is reviewing an inquiry regarding my discussion of surrogacy with two previous female subordinates, making each feel uncomfortable,” Franks said. “I deeply regret that my discussion of this option and process in the workplace caused distress.”


    One Arizona Republican said there had been rumors of inappropriate behavior. The Republican said the congressman had apparently been making plans to run for Senate in 2012, but abruptly canceled those plans.
    “There’s been rumors swirling around him for years, at least in 2012,” the Republican said. “And if this turns out to be true, there won’t be that many people who are surprised.”

    Never occurred to him that maybe God did not want him to have a child.

    It would be a fine addition to the SJ.com stylebook if you would just misspell it as "Manfart" from now on.

    This can't possibly be all of it, not if Ryan asked him to quit. More sordid details (I'll be impressed if they are) to come.

    It was.

    I love this whole story, always entertaining, like a soap opera.

    Sorry I missed it, I don't think he should have lost it to begin with.

    I agree. If that’s all I’d done, I’d dare ‘em to make the case.
