A “family values” California legislator has been caught on tape bragging about having sex in his office with two different women, both married and both lobbyists. Michael Duvall, who sits on the “Rules Committee that oversees member ethics,” was recorded at a public hearing by a committee room microphone he evidently did not realize was turned on. KCAL-9 reporter Dave Lopez revealed yesterday that Republican Michael Duvall, a two-time assemblyman representing Yorba Linda who is married with two grown children, was recorded “talking about a very sensitive subject into a hot microphone without realizing it”:
She wears little eye-patch underwear. So the other day she came here with her underwear, Thursday. And we made love Wednesday a lot. … I like spanking her. She goes, “I know you like spanking me.” I said, “Yeah, that’s ’cause you’re such a bad girl.”
Watch it:
K-CAL’s Lopez relates that sources told him Duvall “loves to talk about his quote sexual conquests,” and “it’s very difficult to get him to change the subject.” According to the OC Weekly, one of the lobbyists Duvall is having sex with is Heidi De Jong Barsuglia, who became a lobbyist for a major California utility after Duvall became vice chairman of the utilities committee:
In April — two months after Duvall became vice chairman of the Utilities & Commerce committee — privately owned California utility giant Sempra Energy hired Barsuglia as one of its top lobbyists, according to Secretary of State records.
Sempra has given Duvall “$1,500 in campaign contributions,” and in May, “the assemblyman officially adopted the company’s negative view on Assembly Bill 64, which proposes increasing the percentage of electricity the utilities must procure from environmentally sensitive sources.”
The anti-gay-marriage Capitol Resource Institute’s Karen England has praised Duvall for voting “time and time again to protect and preserve family values in California,” giving him a “perfect 100% score.”

Sounds like that’s not the only scoring going on in that office….
September 9th, 2009 at 1:12 pmwho hasn’t wanted to hit a lobbyist?
September 9th, 2009 at 1:12 pmSounds par for the course for a Rethuglican representative these days. Just wants to be a member of the Old Boys Club–or maybe get a room at C Street.
September 9th, 2009 at 1:12 pmOh, I get it now. It is so simple. Just hire prostitutes to do your lobbying for you. Save the corporation that “extra” step.
September 9th, 2009 at 1:14 pmIt was all that time he spent thinking about gay marriage that weakened his heterounion I tells ya!
September 9th, 2009 at 1:14 pmOn the other hand, just who is prostituting themself?
September 9th, 2009 at 1:15 pmAt this rate they can form a softball team made up of republican cheating hypocrites.
September 9th, 2009 at 1:16 pmQuelle surprise! – SNARK
I am just imagining that old coot naked.
There is always a special set of rules for wealthy, connected repiggies, and another, harsher set of rules for the rest of us.
If you hire someone to beat up a neighbor of yours, and that situation becomes known, then you will be arrested, and probably sentenced to do time.
Cheney, Bush and the rest of that dreck inflicted torture in the name of this nation. No one has the guts to indict them, arrest them and convict them.
September 9th, 2009 at 1:17 pmWow. Is he a member of ‘C-Street’? That would explain a lot. Sanford, Ensign… I thought these guys were supposed to be so pious. You know, “Homosexuals are bad, but Philanderers are OK!”
September 9th, 2009 at 1:17 pmIt’s not that it’s yet *another* Family Values Repub, it’s that his collegues find it “difficult to get him to change the subject” when he talks about his explicit immorality. A classic narcissist in the tradition of O’Reilly or Blagojevich.
September 9th, 2009 at 1:18 pmI am just imagining that old coot naked.
WHOA!!!!
September 9th, 2009 at 1:19 pmNo need to go that far now.
ThinkProgress should run a picture of the woman(?) if her name is obtained.
It wouldn’t surprise me if she is as equal a “defender of traditional marriage” as that repulsive old sleazebag.
Millions of gay men and women, as well as their friends and families, have to deal with so much crap because of trash like these repiggies.

Screaming that gay marriage will destroy traditional marriage
Being bribed with Sex and Money from lobbyists

I couldn’t imagine being subjected to this pervert’s bragging about his sexual experiences with lobbyists. It’s just absolutely disgusting. In Duvall’s mind, it was OK because he’s a Rethuglican! Family values guy – HAHA!
September 9th, 2009 at 1:22 pmMen who brag about their “sexual conquests” tend to be … er… inadequate… in certain areas.

September 9th, 2009 at 1:29 pmJust think: If we (hopefully) get Campaign Finance Reform passed one day, we might see a lot more of these stories. If lobbyists can’t use obscene amounts of cash to gain political support, what other “goods” can they offer?
Hmm…

September 9th, 2009 at 1:31 pmI would like to make a polite request of my fellow TPers:
please consider not voting “down” comments unless the comments deserve it. I notice Tundra, for example, frequently makes wry or sarcastic comments that seem like they’d be perfectly acceptable coming from a known progressive.
Obviously, some conservatives have earned a reflexive “vote down” by virtue of their consistent absurdity and contentiousness. I wouldn’t put Tundra in that consistent category just yet.
September 9th, 2009 at 1:31 pmOnce again a Republic espouses family values without mentioning it is the Manson family’s values he cherishes.
September 9th, 2009 at 1:31 pmAnd we thought calling politicians and lobbyists corporate whores
September 9th, 2009 at 1:31 pmwas just figurative.

September 9th, 2009 at 1:41 pmjoe, Tundra certainly CAN be just another troll at times. And he was yesterday.
But he can also be a relatively sane dissenting voice. All I’m asking is that we vote him down when his comments deserve it (and we have plenty of opportunity for that) but not vote him down when he’s just being snarky.

“Assemblyman Duvall has been a consistent trooper for the conservative cause,” stated Capitol Resource Institute Executive Director Karen England. “For the last two years he has voted, time and time again, to protect and preserve family values in California. We are grateful for his support of California families and will continue to look for it in the upcoming session.”
The Capitol Resource Institute’s mission is to protect and strengthen families through public policy advocacy. Their legislative scorecard is the only such ‘report card’ that annually rates legislators on their pro-family votes.

The essence of psychological projection is that a person wants to believe others think just like him. If he’s harboring perverted thoughts, he just has to believe everyone has those thoughts. The alternative is to come to terms with your own mental sickness.
September 9th, 2009 at 1:50 pmAll I’m asking is that we vote him down when his comments deserve it (and we have plenty of opportunity for that)
Thanks Ralph, I also promise to continue to give you guys plenty of opportunity for real voting down as well.

Sorry Niner didn’t mean to offend you. I do assure you though I am completely in terms with my own mental state. I am well aware of what I enjoy and don’t enjoy. What you may consider a “sickness” things like “spanking” are similar to what my exremely religous mother would consider “sins”.

In March, a spokeswoman for the group called Duvall “a consistent trooper for the conservative causes,” adding that “for the last two years, he has voted time and time again to protect and preserve family values in California.”

September 9th, 2009 at 2:17 pmHere we go again. The real problem with the American Right’s obsession with moral purity is not the embarrassing exposure of hypocrisy that inevitably occurs when Larry Craig gets caught with his pants down, when Mark Foley flirts with adolescent boys, or when Newt Gingrinch admits the failure of yet another of his “traditional” marriages. The real problem is that the family values crusade crowds out the people and ideas on the Right that can serve this country’s interests.

A) He is a guy getting laid is what God wired him to do. ALL GUYS are like this I think. And this has never phased republicans before.
B) He is corrupt. Republicans never had a problem with that before why would they start now?
C) He MIGHT only hate gays because his fellow rednecks do and he wants to be a champion of their ignorance. So he’s still in good standing there.
D) this looks terrible to democrats. Which means it looks great to republicans.
Nothing in this story goes against the republican platform. This could actually help his political ambitions because republicans LOVE this kind of hypocritical behavior.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:27 pmThat’s okay. We’re used to it from you.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:28 pmYou’re not conservative enough, ksw? Why do you hate pro-American values?
September 9th, 2009 at 2:28 pm“Voting libertarian”.
Um…that doesn’t mean you’re not a conservative or a liberal. It just means you don’t vote for Democrats or Republicans.
Since “conservative” or “liberal” isn’t a party affiliation.
You can totally be a conservative Libertarian.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:28 pmMaybe. But history says no.
Actually, history says yes.
Your hysteria says no.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:28 pmkws-
Independent, libertarian or independent librarian… surely you can see that the ‘majority’ voted a Democratic ticket last time out, right?
So the voters have decided right, Biff?
You’re gonna stop being obstructionist and let us get on with it right?
Right???
September 9th, 2009 at 2:29 pmAdd “history” to the list of words kws has trouble understanding.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:29 pmIf the voters re-elect him, then they get what they deserve-a two faced politician that has the morals of an alley cat.

September 9th, 2009 at 2:30 pmHoodathunk I think you have been hoodwinked by a political hack in the past.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:31 pmkws: “I read some envy there. Maybe you are a closet repub.”
I think you need more proof that conservatives are much more likely to be perverts than liberals. Here’s another ten:
* Republican activist Lawrence E. King, Jr. organized child sex parties at the White House during the 1980s.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:32 pm* Republican lobbyist Craig J. Spence organized child sex parties at the White House during the 1980s.
* Republican Congressman Donald “Buz” Lukens was found guilty of having sex with a female minor and sentenced to one month in jail.
* Republican fundraiser Richard A. Delgaudio was found guilty of child porn charges and paying two teenage girls to pose for sexual photos.
* Republican activist Mark A. Grethen convicted on six counts of sex crimes involving children.
* Republican activist Randal David Ankeney pleaded guilty to
attempted sexual assault on a child.
* Republican Congressman Dan Crane had sex with a female minor
working as a congressional page.
* Republican activist and Christian Coalition leader Beverly
Russell admitted to an incestuous relationship with his step daughter.
* Republican governor Arnold Schwarzenegger allegedly had sex with a 16 year old girl when he was 28.
* Republican congressman and anti-gay activist Robert Bauman was charged with having sex with a 16-year-old boy he picked up at a gay bar.
kws, as a supposed history buff, please tell me which party whas been in power for every major recession/depression in the last 100 years and which party bailed the country out of the same?
I figure you will answer this along with the last question I asked.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:32 pmHoodathunk I think you have been hoodwinked by a political hack in the past.
And I think you have no idea of anything you talk about.
September 9th, 2009 at 2:34 pmJust so no one gets the wrong idea here, the last two years he voted to ‘protect and preserve family values in CA’ so that no one would question his ‘values’ which included getting laid as many times as possible, in every conceiveable position, by two different females while using no protection so his wife probably has some type of STD as he boasted his spanking and sexual prowess to anyone in listening distance.
Sounds like he was instrumental in getting Heidi her lucrative position as his special lobbyist! Hyprocrisy is truly an understatement in his case! Throw these so-called ‘holier than thou’ bastards out of office NOW!

kws, trying to be obtuse: “what is your definition of ‘major’? Is it major when you lose your job. Define.”
How about the Great Depression and the biggest one since that time? Both were caused by Republican policies and you know it. Both were enabled by your libertarian view that there should be no regulations on corporations and financial markets.
And, while we’re on the subject, what do you call a philosophy that cannot be moved by historical fact and logic: a religion. Libertarian philosophy is a religion. It has it’s dogma and no facts or history will change that dogma.

Inouye, Daniel K.
Rank and organization: Second Lieutenant, U.S. Army, Company E, 442nd Infantry. Place and date: San Terenzo, Italy, 21 April 1945. Birth: 7 September 1924, Honolulu, Hawaii. Entered service at: Honolulu, Hawaii.
Citation:
Second Lieutenant Daniel K. Inouye distinguished himself by extraordinary heroism in action on 21 April 1945, in the vicinity of San Terenzo, Italy. While attacking a defended ridge guarding an important road junction, Second Lieutenant Inouye skillfully directed his platoon through a hail of automatic weapon and small arms fire, in a swift enveloping movement that resulted in the capture of an artillery and mortar post and brought his men to within 40 yards of the hostile force. Emplaced in bunkers and rock formations, the enemy halted the advance with crossfire from three machine guns. With complete disregard for his personal safety, Second Lieutenant Inouye crawled up the treacherous slope to within five yards of the nearest machine gun and hurled two grenades, destroying the emplacement. Before the enemy could retaliate, he stood up and neutralized a second machine gun nest. Although wounded by a sniper’s bullet, he continued to engage other hostile positions at close range until an exploding grenade shattered his right arm. Despite the intense pain, he refused evacuation and continued to direct his platoon until enemy resistance was broken and his men were again deployed in defensive positions. In the attack, 25 enemy soldiers were killed and eight others captured. By his gallant, aggressive tactics and by his indomitable leadership, Second Lieutenant Inouye enabled his platoon to advance through formidable resistance, and was instrumental in the capture of the ridge. Second Lieutenant Inouye’s extraordinary heroism and devotion to duty are in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit on him, his unit, and the United States Army.

Let’s not equate Ted Kennedy with JFK, same family but completely different politics. JFK was one of our finest Presidents.

Uh no, sir, it is not. If you are voting for bills based on whether or not you slept with lobbyists for particular corporations, then it is a very public matter.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, sir.
You are not elected for life. The next election is the time to kick anyone to the curb the voters don’t like.

JFK was a war hero, too. Didn’t mean he didn’t bang lots of women too.

You really don’t get it, do you? The issue isn’t that Duvall spanks women (and presumably does a lot of other undercover business with them, too), or that he brags about it, or that he’s stupid enough to brag about it into a hot mic (although that’s getting pretty vulgar). As unsavory as his behavior might be, it’s really none of our business.
What’s really offensive here is that this cheating woman-spanker is a holier-than-thou “family values” guy. If you’re going to tell other people what they may and may not do in their bedrooms, it’s hypocritical of you if you don’t walk that walk.
Neither Barney Frank nor John F. Kennedy EVER told Americans how to conduct their sex lives.
September 9th, 2009 at 3:26 pmYou are not elected for life. The next election is the time to kick anyone to the curb the voters don’t like.
So you’ve said… you go ahead and do whatever ‘research’ you do before making your vote and we’ll continue inquiring whether this guy broke the law before making ours, fair?

September 9th, 2009 at 3:34 pmAh, the issue. Now we can talk . Clinton was NOT impeached by the house for a blow job. No. He was impeached for …
the House voted to impeach Clinton, based on allegations Clinton lied about his relationship with Lewinsky in a sworn deposition in the Paula Jones lawsuit. This made Clinton only the second U.S. president to be impeached after Andrew Johnson.
The top official in the USA lying under oath. There is your role model. The next person to lie under oath can say: “well, Clinton did it. He didn’t go to prison for doing it.” A very slippery slope that undermines the entire legal system if not prosecuted.
September 9th, 2009 at 3:34 pmWhat exactly is a family values guy? Have we ever seen any family values legislation coming from any Republican or Democrat? This is not a nation of family values any longer. As in the way of Rome, so shall America fall, from corruption within.
We have a marriage tax penalty and the CIA funding of the feminist movement of the ’60s to make housewives feel like their role is insignificant. AKA Big business solution to reducing employee salaries, flood the market with workers
I have yet to see any family values coming from Republican Presidents and/or Senators. Maybe a few of the decent ones in the House, but you can count them on your fingers.

September 9th, 2009 at 3:41 pmYou are not elected for life. The next election is the time to kick anyone to the curb the voters don’t like.
We’re the victims. We’re the poor wittle GOP babies. If we can get the American people to become fed up with the dems trying to clean up our mess, or not trying hard enough, then we can get back to business. The POWER. When republicans are in the majority you know they’ve got jobs with perks – 3 day work weeks, unlimited access to pages, lobby hardy. God I crave those days. And God will listen.
September 9th, 2009 at 3:41 pmI see. And yet President Bush felt so strongly about this Republican value — not lying under oath — that he commuted the sentence of Scooter Libby, who unlike Clinton was CONVICTED of perjury, not about a private sexual encounter, but about the treasonous outing of a covert CIA agent during wartime.
Funny how things like that always work out…

well that makes sense because there are certainly no family values coming out of Washington. I have long known that the Democrat/Republican paradigm is false, these so-called parties are more like two warring factions of the same political party, when you analyze the actions and voting records of the Senators and Presidents unless you are a complete imbecile you see the similarities.

First of all, I’m not looking to Washington D.C. for ‘values’- you’re thinking of the so-called ‘values-voters’ that this guy ‘represents’
Second of all, this is happening in California, not Washington D.C.
Third of all, I don’t care about his personal sex life… I care about him steering jobs and favors to his girlfriend ’cause that’s illegal… see the difference?
September 9th, 2009 at 3:44 pmWhat a suprise…..NOT!!!
September 9th, 2009 at 3:45 pmWhat is it with repubs who preach “family values” and then can’t keep it in their pants? First it was whats-his-name from Nevada, Sanford, and now this guy, sheesh no wonder people r getting sick of them.
Clinton: pardon, Marc Rich. Oops.
They pardon guys for suspect reasons. Admit,demo F— up, plenty too. All political hacks screw up from time to time.
If you never admit that a demo has ever messed up, well, that is a you problem. You are delusional. With that, to those that believe no demo has ever messed up, I say good night and good luck.

September 9th, 2009 at 3:51 pmThat’s right, liberals. Do NOT look to washington for moral leadership. Unless we need to reopen an investigation into the Clinton administration for the x-teenth time, ban flag burning and bash gays, do NOT look to washington for moral leadership. We’ve got power to consolidate, move out of the way when we give you the word.

September 9th, 2009 at 4:02 pmI am absolutely dissapointed that my beloved GOP did not deliver the televised response to Obami’s school address. It would have counteracted the wrenching communism indoctrinated in the nation’s school children (future republicans)!
September 9th, 2009 at 4:03 pmI’ve heard some awful demo’s, Ralph. And I would never argue that they can’t be ‘messed up.’
Unless kws was referring to the Pixies demos on the Purple Tape?
That could never be ‘messed up’ in my eyes… but then I’m a sucker for the Pixies. I’ll own that.

September 9th, 2009 at 4:13 pmHoodathink: “ok, kws. Clinton broke the law because he lied to Congress.”
Sorry, friend. Clinton broke no laws. Articles of impeachment are an indictment. The senate has the power to convict and, as we know, it did NOT convict Clinton. This is because, under the law, Clinton did not commit perjury. I hate to break it to you, but lying to congressional investigators is not necessarily a crime.

September 9th, 2009 at 4:54 pmNinerFan, providing false testimony, which Bill did, is a crime. To consider it an impeachable crime is only a Republican wet dream. Which is why Bill was impeached (for committing the sad crime) but not removed from office.
