So, the Young Republicans nationally elected a guy named Glenn Murphy to be their Chairman. For those of you who kept up with the convention this past year, the YR Nationals bullied and hounded everyone who was not a Romney supporter, rigged votes, and otherwise destroyed much of their credibility.
And they elected Glenn Murphy. Who resigned last week. Because he got a high paying job that required him to be nonpartisan.
Surely it was just a coincidence that a police arrest report surfaced at the same time describing how Murphy was arrested after a male friend of Murphy’s woke up to find Murphy trying to perform oral sex on the guy.
The Georgia organization of the YRs was pretty much united in their opposition to Glenn Murphy. Good for them.

UPDATE: Murphy resigns political posts; cooperating with police in apparent criminal investigation

sorry that was so freaking long…
Is this more of those (m)oral values we keep hearing about?
It, uhh, uhm, sucks to be him
Don’t fall asleep on this story.
So Murphey’s defense is that it was consensual oral sex on another.
Meanwhile courtesy of the Douglasville DA we have a young man one who was 17 at the time serving 10 years in prison for receiving not giving the same thing from a 15 year old female.
Maybe Genarlow Wilson should have joined the young republicans…
or maybe if he had been asleep.
Nothing like electing a blow hard for president of the YR’s.
wow the puns just keep coming w/ y’all don’t they.
Well, you’re the one that said it was so freaking long…
The police report is a great read, just because it is all so (by design) matter-of-fact.

“Mr. _____ denies ever touching Mr. Murphy, advising he was sound asleep until …”
“sucks to be him”
Awesome
And everyone thought his career was just humming along
I dont wanna beat this one to death but is it true that he was once arrested for flogging a dolphin?
Or maybe Mr. Murphy just went along with it because he was scared and didnt want to be a statistic…

There is a lot I would really like to say here, but my other officers would shoot me if I did.
So all I will say is sometime in the future, the YRNF Executive Committee will release a statement. I’m just as curious to see it as the rest of you.
The GA YR’s have never been the biggest fans of the National Federation anyway. Hopefully this is the limp, er, I mean the LAST anyone will hear from Glenn Murphy.
Now you know why we haven’t had a national board meeting in Georgia since 1995!
However, we have had better relationships in recent times. After all, I was on the National Exeutive committee as a Vice-Chairman back in 2003-05. Those years weren’t without drama either.
It will be hard for him to talk his way out of this.
He apparently thinks this is a banana republic.
