Was this the same guy who was caught on tape giving advice on how to get away with voting fraud?

#1-yes he was.

Sounds like a soldier in the War on Women.

I think the girlfriend maybe said that she supported the Michigan Right-To-Work Law.

He´s a punk thug like his father. Apple and tree distance, etc.. I am positive that the MSM will allow this fine couple to "put this behind them" by eliminating any reference to it in any coverage.

Moran´s a criminal just like his son.

Well, Moran said his son was sorry and embarrassed by the voter fraud thing (and in the local interview, practically tousled his hair and punched him affectionately on the chin). And the congressman said that the son and the girlfriend are both "good kids" so I guess there´s nothing to see.

Moran is my congressman. I expect sympathy from L-Dotters. If he´s not the worst of all of them, he´s in the top (bottom) 10.

To reprise my earlier post, see this

http://jezebel.com/5076227/why-you-shouldnt-vote-for-a-bad-guy-with-good-positions

for evidence of Moran´s past criminal behavior. And he´s my Congressman, too. What a bum!

Moran´s son must not have realized he was still in VA. Not Michigan.

Doesn`t she know who he is??

Strange that none of these articles mentions that this knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing troglodyte was 6´5" and 290 when he was Yale´s Defensive Lineman of the Year. Recent pictures don´t indicate that he´s lost any of that height or weight since those days.
Every time one of my fellow prior-service Leathernecks breaks the law, journalists always cry, "Ex-Marine!" this or that.
Don´t get me wrong - no man, regardless of size, should ever raise his hand to a woman.
(Unless, of course, the woman in question happens to be Jane Fonda.)

Doesn´t this congressman have instances of beating or hitting people because of anger issues, the son sounds like his father.

Not a word about party affiliation.

Bad choices! The men that some women select is beyond understanding. This guy is a certifiable idiot. The girl should ditch him as fast as she can and find someone who has been properly weaned.

´Tis a Democrat War on Women, bejayzus! That´s what it is!

She is a fool if she comes anywhere near this jerk.

When you break that bone, the eye droops out of place, it´s sickening to see until they fix it. She shoulld geld him!!!

"I hope their privacy will be respected," Congressman Moran told the paper. "They look forward to putting this embarrassing situation behind them."

"Embarrassing" is coming out of the men´s room with your zipper at half-mast. Breaking someone´s eye-socket and nose is outside the "embarrassment" Venn Diagram Circle. Sorry.

And if you want privacy, don´t do what these mutts, pere and fils, have done. Criminal behavior forfeits privacy.

Let´s take a long, close look at his history when deciding the sentence, ´K, Judgie?

And, Rep. Moran? Nice job rearing the kid. Nice job.

#6, #7: Wow. Sincere condolences. Did you guys both lose bets and have to move there? How does the word "recall" sound?

#13: I didn´t stay at a Holiday Inn, but it´s not a stretch to think self-hate, self-worth issues are in the mix. Sad.

What a prince.

They should refer to him as DH-1...

´´It ain´t me, it ain´t me,I ain´t no fortunate son´´

C´mon ya´ll! Track Palin is getting a divorce. Don´cha know what is important here? This poor bloke just got angry and whacked his girlfriend...Track is dumping his wife and little baby that was born 3 months after the marriage. Moran has lovely children. That Palin woman has horrible spawn. s/o

Yessir, that apple didn´t fall too far from the horse.

"I hope their privacy will be respected," Congressman Moran told the paper. "They look forward to putting this embarrassing situation behind them.” - Article

"their" privacy? Deflecting the blame, are we, Congressman? And assaulting women (or anyone) isn´t merely an "embarrassing situation", it´s criminal.

Nice - voter fraud AND woman-beating. Two of the few things I consider lower than whale-dung.

And, I don´t have a whole helluva lot of sympathy for the kind of stupid voter who elects Jim Moran, or the kind of stupid woman who elects to be with his son, but I suppose I wish better for them both.

And what is it with some ladies? I find it hard enough to believe when they go with a powerful bad-guy, but I kind of understand the attraction from a biological standpoint, at least.

But the idiot wastrel son of a powerful man? C´mon, really girls? Y´all can do better than that... this kid is like the character Bernard from "Things to Do in Denver When You´re Dead."

And it sounds like she caught an orbital fracture - that´s a major league swing Junior took, there. He oughta be in jail. Whaddya figure that´ll happen, boys and girls?

If the attack had not been not witnessed by two cops, who just happened to be in the area, this POS would probably have gotten away with this.

He needs some time in prison.

A cracked scull should warrant assault charges. Where are all the NOW hags telling us what a terrible thing it is to excuse violence against women as an "embarrassing incident?"

But I´ll say that Dana Perino is right. This woman´s judgment is bad if she chooses to be with anyone related to Jim Moran or who calls himself a Democrat.

Irish trash

I hope the girlfriend sues the jerk for everything he owns. Who does he think he is? A protected muslim?

The story has gone completely quiet. At one point it sounded like the girlfriend was trying to say her heel got caught and she fell. Big sigh. Why would she want to be with this jerk. Gotta agree with poster 24 on this. If she´s going to sell out, at least sell out for a higher bid.

#17 -- thanks. I moved here 20+ years ago, when northern VA was still sane. We even had a Republican congressman. Now I´m invested here (job, condo...) but moving away is getting more and more appealing.
