Posted on Feb 26, 2011 @ 11:41AM
More details are emerging about the Craigslist scandal surrounding former Congressman Chris Lee, RadarOnline.com has learned, and they possibly explain why he resigned so quickly after the initial story broke early this month.
It turns out that the married-with-children Lee wasn't just searching for women on Craigslist, he was also exchanging emails with transgender women, reports Gawker, the website that broke the initial story.
In new revelations Saturday, Gawker revealed that two D.C.-area transgender women have contacted the site, claiming they exchanged emails with Lee.
One sent in an ad that Lee allegedly posted on Craigslist seeking transgender women while the other revealed a never-before-seen photograph she says Lee sent her.

According to one of the women, she corresponded with Lee by email several times and he told her that he'd dated a transsexual woman while "in college in California."
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Lee met Yesha Callahan on Craislist and the two exchanged numerous messages before she took her story to Gawker.

This is not about republican vs. democrats. This is about a person cheating on their spouse.

How come so many Republicans are so sexually freaky- they sneek around doing the do with low down nasty freaks and really try too act like button down rigid types when they are in public but behind closed doors they are leading disqusting lifestyles

I have wondered the exact same thing.

Wondering if his wife is still standing behind him like Spitzer's (who now blames herself for his infidelities).

Another good family values Republican. It wasn't bad enough he was looking for other women, now hes also looking for men who dress as women. Yeesh!

Yeah. It's really strange. If the GOP wasn't so anti-gay, some of their "family values" politicians could admit they are gay and live a normal, happy life. It must feel miserable to have to pretend you are something you are not.

Exactly, lol.

No, men who dress as women are merely transvestites and frequently not gay. He was seeking women who USED to be men.
