More on the trouble brewing (Hah... "brewing..." Get it?) for Portland democrat Mayor Sam Adams

.
I admit it, the voices (for now) calling out for this worm's resignation are much louder than I believed they would be.

Still, the cache Mr. Adams' sexual preference engenders is quite striking.

Local groups depending on city business are, of course, driven by their need for cash far more than their need to require honesty from elected officials.
Steve Holwerda, chairman of the Portland Business Alliance, said in a statement released Saturday that the alliance board had differing views on whether Adams should resign but they agreed it was a critical time for the city and some of its major development projects.

"Whether or not he stays in office should be based on whether he can lead our city effectively and with the integrity that all our citizens deserve," Holwerda said.
Fascinating.

This lying dirtbag has already both proven, and acknowledged, that he is no more possessed of the "integrity that all our citizens deserve" then he is the ability to levitate.

When you're terrified, one has to wonder: what else would this moron have to do to get you to grow a pair and walk the walk?

Obviously, Adams has made the strategic decision that if he hangs in for 6 months, he'd survive a recall and all would be forgiven.

That's probably true, given that Adams is that most precious of leftist jewels; a homosexual democrat mayor.

While I was in error about the yawner effect, I was dead on in my prediction that Adams would not resign, since he lacks any morals, integrity or responsibility to the people he lied to so vilely during the election, and his opponent, whom he trashed like a rented mule.

Adams is despicable in every sense and meaning of that word. He shouldn't be a 5th grade class president, let alone mayor of Portland. But then, since Portland has morphed into the Soviet Socialist Republic, there can be no doubt they have the government they want and deserve.

As always, had Adams been a Republican; his party affiliation would be mentioned every 30 seconds and the howls for his scalp would be massive and unrelenting.

PORTLAND — Mayor Sam Adams said Sunday he will not resign despite calls for him to step down after admitting he lied about a sexual relationship with a young man.

City Commissioner Randy Leonard told The Associated Press he had a phone message from Adams on Sunday morning, saying he had decided to remain in office.

Mayor Sam Adams has publicly apologized for lying about his sexual relationship with Beau Breedlove in 2005.

Two other commissioners told The Oregonian newspaper that Adams told them the same thing. The fourth, Amanda Fritz, declined to comment.

Efforts to reach Adams were unsuccessful.

Last week, Adams publicly apologized for lying about his sexual relationship with an 18-year-old man in 2005 as he began his campaign for mayor in 2007.

The young man, Beau Breedlove, has said he did not have sex with the mayor until he was 18, though they met when Breedlove was 17.

Breedlove, now 21, told The Oregonian on Saturday he had kissed Adams twice when he was 17 and welcomed the romantic interest, offering details that contradicted Adams' claim that he told Breedlove he was not interested in a relationship at the time.

But Breedlove repeated his denial there was any sex before he was 18, and said the relationship was consensual and he considered himself an adult even before he turned 18.
