Joe Scarborough said he had been to the "house" on C Street...

[kentuck]

On the Bill Maher show last night, Maher asked Scarborough if he had ever been to the "church" on C Street where Ensign and Sanford lived. Scarborough said that he had but Maher never pursued it any further? I wanted to know if he lived there while he was a Congressman? And what kind of scam were they running to call it a "church" and be tax exempt? Did they not have to pay any rent? Was it tax exempt also?? There were a lot of questions left unanswered, in my opinion.

[shraby]

1. Are the congresscritters addresses in D.C. on record

anyplace, or is that top-secret also?

[livetohike]

2. I think it's a good guess that he lived there

How else would he have become such good friends with Sanford? They were both Congressmen at the same time - Pickering too. There's a lot more to this story....maybe Joe is scared to death his skeletons will come out now too.

[kentuck]

3. I think the whole C Street "church" thing was a tax scam...

figured out by some "brilliant" Republicans. I wonder how much they paid in rent? It was like a fraternity house. They covered for each other as they were all looking for a little "strange" on the side. Just my opinion. Obviously, we need to know more about this "arrangement" on C Street..

5. Yeah, there is always money involved somewhere. Sanford

came from a wealthy family. Why would he have to share rent at some big old house on C street? Grown men living like a bunch of frat boys. I hope the hypocrites get exposed soon.

11. Sanford probably lived there because he is a cheap

s.o.b. There was a story someone told where he met a couple of people at a bar/club and offered to buy a coke. He literally bought one coke and brought back three straws. Now that is beyond cheap!

4. I wonder what the C Street boys know about

Lori Klausutis.

7. Exactly what I was thinking - maybe this is why Joe S. is so

frightened.

[alsame]

8. Yep, he can't be too happy that this story is out there now. nt

[get the red out]

6. His woman problem

It makes perfect sense due to his dead female office worker problem and the fact that his first marriage ended due to his philandering. Seems to be a pattern forming here. Anyone who has had anything to do with the place seems to be a conservative know-it-all who demonizes others while they themselves can't keep it in their pants. Or is that just Republicans in general?

[kentuck]

9. There is a pattern..

and a lot we don't know about that little "church" on C Street.

[dgibby]

10. Maybe the little "church" on C Street

was the object of the song, "Come to the church in the wildwood". Sure sounds like it, doesn't it?:evilgrin: :rofl:

[lunatica]

12. Maybe Maher didn't know enough about it to follow up

But if that's the case I hope he studies up on it and uses it. He does like to go after religion

[pepperbear]

13. dupe

[pepperbear]

14. when they say "billionaire boy's club", this is what they mean. n/t

[Ilsa]

15. Yes, they pay rent there, but it is a paltry $600 a month for a very nice dwelling

worth about $1.3 mil. IMO, they are each receiving a gift in the form of cheap rent at this place. I bet they don't have to report it, either.

[waiting for hope]

16. $600 a month in DC is unheard of ...

they are getting off cheap.

[Greybnk48]

17. The house on C Street = The Luuuuvvv Shack. ; ) n/t

[bertman]

18. And now, young lady, I want you to get down on your knees . . .

and pray?

[johnaries]

19. I'll bet he's been to a LOT of "houses". nt
