Using that logic, if a sex offender moves into my neighborhood I better move because that must mean I keep company with pedophiles. Might as well apply the same to a convicted felon who moves in down the street. After all, his moving in automatically makes me one of his ilk.

Wouldn't a better analogy be if the sex offender moved into your house and you decided to stay?

Where Shuler lives doesn't concern me, and I'd try to keep my address private, too, if I was in Congress. What does concern me is whether or not Shuler or any other member of Congress subscribe to the tenets of this outfit. Those principles are not just weird, they're dangerous.

They didn't move into his neighborhood. He rented a room in their house.

No need for a tortured analogy, the facts work just fine.

I appreciate dorm-style housing for public officials. DC is horribly expensive and and $150K salary (when you have to maintain two residences with one at DC prices) goes pretty quickly. That said, Rep. Shuler seems to be either embarrassed or inexplicably reluctant to answer a simple question and Ed's right to question why. Like President Reagan said, "Let your feet be your vote." If he's embarrassed to live there, he should move.

I like Shuler. That said; I can't understand why "Blue NC" would demagogue where he lives.
