It’s happened again to another RWNJ rethuglican politician.
Greg Davis, the mayor of Southaven, Mississippi, “who ran unsuccessfully for Congress in 2008 on a conservative, family-values platform” according to the Commercial Appeal, has been forced out of the closet over receipts uncovered in a criminal investigation over misused expenses. The receipts included “thousands of dollars worth of liquor, expensive dinners at a local restaurant and a visit to an adult store catering to gay men”:
As details emerged Thursday from the receipts, provided by state auditors to Southaven aldermen and subsequently obtained by The Commercial Appeal, Davis conceded publicly for the first time in an interview with The CA that he is gay and has struggled to keep the issue from affecting his public life as mayor of Mississippi’s third-largest city.
“At this point in my life and in my career, while I have tried to maintain separation between my personal and public life, it is obvious that this can no longer remain the case,” Davis said Thursday afternoon at his Southaven home. “While I have performed my job as mayor, in my opinion, as a very conservative, progressive individual — and still continue to be a very conservative individual — I think that it is important that I discuss the struggles I have had over the last few years when I came to the realization that I am gay.”
He claims he doesn’t remember what he bought at the sex shop. Something tells me that you’d remember what you purchased at something called the Priape Sex Shop.
