Blunt, Kinder call on Muschany to resign
Calling the alleged actions of Rep. Scott Muschany, R-Frontenac, “reprehensible,” Gov. Matt Blunt and Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder issued separate statements today calling for Muschany to resign his seat in the House.
Muschany was indicted yesterday by a Cole County grand jury on a felony charge of “deviate sexual assault.” If convicted he could face up to 7 years in prison. Muchany is suspected of assaulting the 14-year-old daughter of a former House employee. Muschany and the victim’s mother were involved romantically.
“I was extremely troubled to learn that Rep. Scott Muschany is facing felony charges for sexual assault of a minor. This alleged misconduct is reprehensible and cannot and will not be tolerated,” said Kinder in an e-mailed statement. “Today, I call on my fellow Republican leaders to join me in calling for Rep. Muschany’s immediate resignation from the Missouri House.”
Blunt also called on Muschany to resign, if the charges against him prove true.
Muschany’s lawyer told the Post-Dispatch yesterday that the allegations are “false.”


For reasons known only to the mainstream media, NO major outlet is touching the Edwards story. They CLEARLY have enough to go on - hush money, photographs, eyewitnesses, etc. It’s like when Newsweek didn’t want to move forward with the Clinton/Lewinsky story ten years ago, though they were the first to possess the information. They suppressed it, until the Drudge Report exposed it back in the dewey days of the internet - and everything Drudge reported was true.
If Edwards’ story WEREN’T true, he would be proclaiming his innocence on rooftops. Innocent people step out into the light; guilty people go into hiding and don’t answer questions.
There’s a reason why the name of John Edwards is no longer on Barack Obama’s VP list; now we’ll see if he’s stripped of an opportunity to speak at the Democratic Convention.
If there EVER was validation as to the remarkable bias of the mainstream media, it’s this story…
