'Family-Values' 'War-on-Drugs' Congressman Had 4 Mistresses, Weed "A second woman who claims she had an affair with tea party-backed Rep. Scott DesJarlais (R-TN) while under his medical care says that their relationship included illicit drug use.
Earlier this month, The Huffington Post reported that DesJarlais had an affair with a patient that resulted in the "pro-life" Republican pressuring the unidentified woman to get an abortion in September 2000.
In an interview published by the Chattanooga Times Free Press on Sunday, a second patient also claimed that she had a sexual relationship with the former physician.
The woman said that DesJarlais prescribed pain medication and smoked marijuana with her during dates at his home in 2000.
"Scott was just a regular guy," she explained. "He smoked. I mean, he smoked pot. He [did] all that stuff."
"His biggest thing that's completely unethical is him just picking up women while he's a doctor," the woman said. "I mean, seriously, that's his big no-no. ... He's just a hound."* Cenk Uygur breaks down the insane amount of hypocrisy DesJarlais has shown and the shocking fact that he's still well ahead in the polls.
