    Congressman resigns amid Craigslist scandal



    WASHINGTON — A married congressman from upstate New York resigned suddenly Wednesday after a scandal erupted over emails and a shirtless photo supposedly sent to a woman in response to a Craigslist dating ad.
    Republican Christopher Lee had just begun his second term representing New York's 26th District. Just hours after the scandal broke on Gawker.com, Lee announced that he was quitting Congress, and a clerk read his letter of resignation on the House floor.
    In a statement, Lee said:
    "It has been a tremendous honor to serve the people of Western New York. I regret the harm that my actions have caused my family, my staff and my constituents. I deeply and sincerely apologize to them all. I have made profound mistakes and I promise to work as hard as I can to seek their forgiveness.
    "The challenges we face in Western New York and across the country are too serious for me to allow this distraction to continue, and so I am announcing that I have resigned my seat in Congress effective immediately."
    The controversy erupted when Gawker reported that a Maryland woman had sent in emails supposedly written by Lee in response to a dating ad that she had placed on Craigslist. Gawker said the ad had asked: "Will someone prove to me not all CL men look like toads?"
    In response came emails from a man representing himself as a divorced lobbyist younger than Lee's actual age of 46. The woman responded. Gawker published a shirtless photo that he had taken of himself, flexing his muscles. One of the emails described him as a "fit fun classy guy." Gawker said the emails were sent from a Gmail account that Lee confirmed to be his own.
    Gawker said the flirting ended when the woman concluded after an online search that Lee had lied. She then sent the material to Gawker.
    Lee and his wife, Michele, live in Amherst, N.Y. They have one son.
    A spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner told NBC News that it was Lee's decision to resign.
    Lee served on the House Ways and Means Committee and was active on economic revitalization issues.
    He has a business background stemming from his family's manufacturing business.
    His exit triggers a special election, which Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo must call. Lee was first elected in 2008 with 55 percent of the vote, and GOP presidential candidate John McCain won the district — New York's 26th — in 2008 with 52 percent. Lee was reelected in 2010 with 74 percent of the vote.
    The 26th District covers all or part of seven counties, including suburbs of Buffalo and Rochester. It has been a solidly Republican district.

    Bahahahahaha!

    I can't believe a congressman took a typical myspace cellphone mirror shot. He looks like such a dork trying to flex is scrawny arm.

    Posting shirtless pics flexing your 11' arm on a Craigslist dating ad is creepy.

    He's a stupid as Tiger Woods and like Tiger, deserves what he gets. Every other congressman knows you call one of the local $3000/night whores. Lobbyists even pay for them for Christ's sake.

    He doesn't look like a toad at least and thats all the CraigsList ad asked for....and I commend him for not looking like 90% of the rest of politicians all fat & swollen riddled with gout on the verge of a heart attack......
    Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
    not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
    and drag down the features of age,
    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
