Freshman Rep. Vance McAllister (R-LA), who ran on a "faith, family, and country" platform, and promised a vigorous "defense of natural marriage" has been caught on video making out with a young female staffer. Local news outlets are speculating about an affair.
McAllister issued this statement asking for privacy while attempting to get himself out of the dog house:
There’s no doubt I’ve fallen short and I’m asking for forgiveness. I’m asking for forgiveness from God, my wife, my kids, my staff and my constituents who elected me to serve. Trust is something I know has to be earned whether you’re a husband, a father or a congressman. I promise to do everything I can to earn back the trust of everyone I’ve disappointed. From day one, I’ve always tried to be an honest man. I ran for Congress to make a difference and not just be another politician.
McAllister was endorsed by the Duck Dynasty clan during his campaign. McAllister famously invited Willie Robertson of Duck Dynasty to be his guest at the most recent State of the Union address.
I wonder what the Robertson family thinks about this?
