Penthouse Pet: Peter Kinder creeped me out
Former Penthouse Pet is not a fan of Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder.

Peter Kinder reconnected with a former nude model.
A photograph of Missouri Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder enjoying the company of a former Penthouse Pet surfaced last week. In an interview with The Riverfront Times, the model-turned-bartender in the photo says Kinder hounded her when he was in the state senate, and she worked as an exotic dancer. Tammy Chapman, the one-time Guccione girl, says Kinder's persistence and rough manner during private dances led her to ask him to stop visiting the club.
Chapman and Kinder reconnected earlier this year when Kinder showed up at Verlin's, a St. Louis bar that features bartenders who don't wear pants. Chapman, who was working at the bar, tells Riverfront Times managing editor Sarah Fenske that Kinder invited her to move into a condominium in St. Louis that he uses. (She declined.) Campaign-finance records show that Kinder's campaign fund pays for the condo.

Kinder is 56 and has never been married. His permanent residence is in Cape Girardeau. Earlier this year, he got into trouble for billing taxpayers for hotel stays that stretched the definition of official state business. His campaign is paying $1,555 a month for the St. Louis condo, according to records.

Kinder is Gov. Jay Nixon's presumptive Republican challenger in the 2012 election. His fitness for the state's highest office was in question well before Chapman came forward with her claims that he's the kind of strip-club patron who doesn't understand boundaries.

Rather biased source to quote from but he sounds like a lot of guys without using the word creepy.
I take it his condo is legal as long it stays campaign related (if he moves in a mistress then all hell breaks lose).
If any of this stuff is true then rank and file Republicans will find someone else to go after the governor's office. Right now this is just a personal hit piece. A long time democratic tactic when they have nothing else.
Show me a better source.

FYI, I had a letter purposely misquoted by the Pitch a few years back. I complained, they corrected, and apologized. Still it was such an obvious hatchet job. I guess we'll see who has a lot of times on their hands when they try to find this letter.

Did you see the comment about the Clay County Auditor? First heard about him when I was listening to the Playboy channel on Sirrus. What a joke he is.

Most of the newspapers just want to sell more papers; their reporting is questionable. In this case, it is just a gross misstatement to paste pictures together and label it as a picture of them together. Wow!!

The story may be true, or not. We can only be sure that in this case the storyteller is not truthful.

According to the St. Louis NBC station KSDK Channel 5, Kinder's spokesperson confirmed that the two met at the strip club where she danced, but Kinder himself continues to claim that this was made up by the Dems.

Now, he's an even BIGGER joke.

Another Nikki Haley moment maybe?
This is tame compared to the joke we now have in the White House. and for hobbyists to comment on this, how hypocritical...

Her story is not standing up well under scrutiny. She tells one media outlook that she took a picture and she does not know how it got on the Internet. Next, she tells another media outlet that Kinder took the picture and she knows he was sending it out on the Internet. She mentions having Kinder show up on Mondays when the legislative records show that Kinder was in the legislature at the time.
Now she has come out as a lesbian and it taking a political interest in what a guy did 16 years ago. How convenient.
Having said that I am unhappy with his fiscal irresponsibility with campaign funds. Maybe we need another choice and we definitely need to know the source of the stripper story. That is someone else who should be out of politics permanently.

Of course on this website this should be nonstarter unless someone is trying to score political points. Why not, I've been accused of it. By the way check this out

The way I see these conversations are simply, A bunch of people arguing over who is least idiotic. They (the politicians) are all self centered, self serving, children could care less about you, I or any other person in this country (that is until they wanna get laid).The whole bunch of them could not figure out how to balance a budget let alone come up with meaningful cuts in entitlement programs or raising taxes a fair amount. There not Republicans or Democrats, their simply assholes. Plain and simple assholes. To argue that your asshole is better than his asshole is simply moronic...
Yea simplyme...but for once, let's all go with the subject of the thread, and
have fun with it.

I'm sure, those who take things alittle too serious can always start the Democratic Joke of the Day as well

No argument from me, simplyme

The same around and around arguments of "my thing is bigger than your thing, and here's a link/pic to proof it" gets old, metaphorically speaking, at least for most of us.

I was thinking this thread was just to have fun and poke at everyone...perhaps I wrong???
