Texas GOP congressman who owns ‘blow-me.org’ website accused of sexual harassment [View all]

How can this be??? He looks like a fine, upstanding fellow, nothing 2-3 generations of incest wouldn't produce.

A Texas Republican congressman is facing allegations of sexual harassment from a former staff member.

According to Mediaite, Rep. Blake Farenthold was accused of harassing a female staffer in a lawsuit filed last Friday. On Monday, it emerged that Farenthold is the owner of the URL “www.blow-me.org,” a currently inactive web address.

Freshman congressman and Tea Party favorite Farenthold was accused of sexual misconduct and of creating a hostile work environment in a lawsuit filed by former staffer Lauren Greene.

Greene claims that Farenthold needed a team of staffers to accompany him to functions on Capitol Hill because of his tendency to drink too much and behave inappropriately toward women.
