Jim Webb's Pedophilia Episode

One of the key Democratic hopefuls in the Senate race is VA candidate Jim Webb. The media loves to play up his tenure as Navy Secretary in the Reagan Administration (despite his disparaging remarks of Reagan and his policies afterward). Moreover, the media has made loud noises about George Allen's supposedly racist tendencies and use of the 'n' word (which supposedly took place while he was in college).

What the media has not revealed are some truly disturbing episodes in Jim Webb's books that he authored. In this case, he describes an episode of pedophilia which to almost all people, is far more disturbing than anything said to-date in this campaign.

I wonder why the media doesn't ask those "what if's" of Webb, like "What if Jim Webb is really a closet pedophile?" You get the point. If George Allen authored this book, he would not be allowed to sit in the Senate today.
