OOPS...Another 'family values' Bush advisor has to quit..

Catholic publisher quits Bush campaign
David D. Kirkpatrick, New York Times
August 19, 2004 BUSH0819CATH



Deal W. Hudson, the publisher of the conservative Roman Catholic journal Crisis and the architect of a Republican effort to court Catholic voters, said he is resigning as an adviser to the Bush campaign because of a Catholic newspaper's investigation into accusations of sexual misconduct. The accusations involve a student at a college where he once taught.

"No one regrets my past mistakes more than I do," Hudson wrote in a column posted Wednesday on the online edition of National Review announcing his resignation. "At the time, I dealt with this in an upright manner and the matter was satisfactorily resolved long ago," he wrote, without specifying the accusations. Hudson, 54, said he had been happily married to his current wife for 17 years. Called for comment, he declined.

At Fordham University, a Jesuit school in New York where Hudson taught from 1989 to 1995, a university spokeswoman confirmed that the episode had led to Hudson's resignation. The spokeswoman, Elizabeth Schmalz, said: "Fordham followed its policy rigorously in this matter and initiated an investigation upon receipt of the student complaint. The professor later surrendered his tenure at Fordham." Schmalz added, "Something inappropriate was done."

3. ""At the time, I dealt with this in an upright manner .....
and the matter was satisfactorily resolved long ago,"

Translation - I did a bad thing but I admitted it when I got caught and I paid the young lady off and this was a long time ago and I have a wife and am certainly not one of those homosexuals so I don't see why the liberals are making a big deal out of this.
