He also liked to dress in womens clothes/undergarments. Thats fine by me, but the invasion of privacy isnt.

He was one the biggest wastes of space & air that ever existed. He may have been an American by birth but a traitor by essence; I would say heart, but we seriously doubt he had one. He was definitely Not a good American or Human Being for that matter. In the dictionary next to the word corrupt should be his photo & bio. There is nothing redeemable about him, at all. He does not even make decent worm food!
