When Rep. Aaron Schock resigned from office last month following a series of revelations about his spending habits, he said he was leaving with “sadness and humility.” (Not so much the latter, since he compared himself to Lincoln in his farewell speech.) He might also have added that he was leaving with no forwarding address. Schock has disappeared so completely that even process servers can’t find him.
Two weeks ago, Howard Foster, a former donor, filed suit against the lavish-spending Schock for fraud. But Foster’s attorney is now complaining that he hasn’t been able to track down the resolutely heterosexual gym bunny.
Attorney Daniel Kurowski says that he found the Peoria address that Schock listed as his residence vacant. Schock’s attorneys did not respond to Kurowski’s inquiries. Schock is “certainly aware of the lawsuit, from what I can tell,” Kurowski told a court. Kurowski did not specify if he looked in any closets.
The disappearance is particularly ironic given Schock’s previous proclivity to post pictures of himself in exotic locales, preferably in poses that show off his athletic prowess and well-waxed chest.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Meantime, the process servers aren’t having a hard time finding Schock’s former staffers. So far six of them have been served with subpoenas to testify before a grand jury investigating whether Schock misspent campaign and Congressional funds. Schock may want to enjoy his freedom while he can. It might not last much longer.

Time to move along, buddy.

@BJ McFrisky: Well he reported on all of Schock’s aides and staff that are facing subpoenas. This is Republican tradition. Corruption. I guess if report too much on corruption it is obsessive.

And once again, BJ will ALWAYS spring to the defense, of any republican who votes against gay rights, no matter the depth of their criminality.
Schock subverted the voting process, committed fraud with hundreds of thousands of tax dollars, has unexplained “Investments” with campaign donors and looks to have violated Federal RICO laws.
The fact that BJ is desperate to defend him shows that the Log Cabin Republicans don’t think it is their job to bring the GOP to acceptance of LGBT’s, no, they see it as their job to give the anti-gay bigots cover on any issue involving gays, no matter how criminal or dishonest.
Stealing from taxpayers, Fraud, Subverting voters rights (And the list goes on) and BJ is desperate to stop any articles on this guy.
Pretty much shows us where your integrity is BJ.

Closeted hypocritical crooked do-nothing politician goes into hiding when his profligate spending habits are exposed. Oh big news! Tear out the front page!
So ridiculous. Starting small, why do politicians even have discretion over office decor? Should be similar to any other office environment: cube farm, everyone has the same furniture…facilities manager and corporate services decide when it’s time for a refresh and then put the whole thing out to bid. You want a private meeting? Reserve a conference room in Outlook or through one of the office Kathy’s just like the rest of us.

I wish that I were surprised. A “Republican” preaches about conservative values, and when finally exposed, runs away. If this were a Democrat – there would be a nation-wide, multi-agency search.
Sadly, with gay rights at the forefront this week, these are the people that are opposed to our valuable human rights.
P.S. Chicago has many other issues. Finding a ‘straight’ boy among the crowd of many other issues plaguing the city is a wasted effort.
Perhaps we should have help on the lookout. If only to demonstrate that we are committed to justice and liberty – much unlike our Republican brethren.
God Bless the man that will have to partner themselves to this fool when he finally comes out.

Aaron Schock’s father said it most eloquently:
‘Two years from now he’ll be successful, if he’s not in jail’
He ought to know, he raised the craven punk.
dommyluc
I keep getting this message that I may be spam or that I have been flagged for being a “jerk”. Hey, Queerty – I have NEVER posted anything detrimental to my fellow members and to the gay community, of which I am a part of. And I have seen trolls have their anti-gay or pro-Log cabin Republican bullshit printed without you blinking an eye. So stop calling me a troll or defining me as “spam” and print my goddamned comments. Oh, and 99.99999999% of the people on this site are adults, so stop censoring our words. People like Ted Cruz and his ilk DESERVE to be called motherfuckers because, of course, that is what they are.

Well I live in Peoria and haven’t seen him recently but on March 20 he did cut in front of me and an elderly woman in a hover round at the Schnucks grocery store. He only bought a couple pints of Haagen Daas.

It seems to me that if Aaron Schock deliberately avoids being photographed for say a month, He could immediately make about $200,000 or so on any photo “leaked” to the press.
Infamy is as marketable as fame.
Giancarlo85
Bj and other Republicans are coming to his defense. They have been promoting and defending corruption since the Nixon administration. Nixon, Reagan and both Bush’s… All criminals. Schock is merely following in Republican traditions.

Being a disgraced congressmen having to resign, my guess is he is in deep hiding. Which is a metaphor for his life.

I really hope he doesn’t turn out to really be a gay man who has concocted one of the biggest political scams ever! It would be a shame to see that body wasted in prison.

Oh nice try Log Cabin troll, well done! (Clapping)
There is just one problem. How is it that you could have read enough posts about Schock to think that the site is “Obsessed” with him, and yet somehow claim to not know who he is?
Your post is just as obvious as the ones during the prop 8 fight where Mormon trolls would come in and lie and say “As a gay man, I think we are being bullies to Mormons” etc…
And also, lastly, BJ, if you’re going to create another new screename, you may want to at least use different wording. BJ’s post up top used the words …
“obsession with Aaron Schock has officially reached the creepy stage.”
Too lazy to even vary your wording? Shame on you!

Has it occurred to any of you that instead of indulging in schadenfreude we might want to reach out to this guy who is obviously having serious coming-out issues. Just remember how difficult your experience was. And it must be at least doubly so for Schock, who comes from prairie fundamentalist Apostolic Christian background.
Pete
@BJ McFrisky: The only reason why gay media personnel like Itay Hod are interested in this guy at all is because he’s hot. If he was some bald middle-aged troll, the coverage would be a bit more measured.

@Pete: should have added “look how this article is accompanied by a shirtless, beefcake photo”

Ok troll lets go through your post.
1. Reach out? He stole hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars. He subverted the constitutional voting rights of people by putting his vote up for sale. His wealth went up millions in a year or two through shady deals with “Donors”, Committed Fraud, violated Federal RICO laws.. But that’s right, all you Log Cabin trolls want to paint every anti-gay bigot as the victim, because you can’t actually defend what they did.
2. Complain about the photo all you want, too bad that that is AN APPROVED PHOTO FROM SCHOCK’S OWN P.R. He didn’t seem to mind that photo being used when his office was sending it out, or when he did multiple magazine interviews appearing shirtless. So cry me a river.

Has anyone looked for his photographer-boyfriend? Maybe check around South American glaciers, too.

He’s sexy. Lol. Maybe kinda a jerk. But idk. He’s a hottie for a politician. L po l

Hope he enjoys those bending over positions, because if he has to face any criminal charges, he’ll be bending over a LOT if he gets convicted.
Giancarlo85
@Cam: Hey man, I’d reach out to him. I’d say “why don’t you return all the money you stole and come clean about things?” But then again you can’t fix a crook.
Kangol
@James Millner: LOL! That’s what I thought, Lady Rose Grantham Schock is spread out on a table, butt up, in a backroom at Steamworks in Boystown.
But Lady Rose is probably holed up somewhere in or around DC, perhaps with that priest that disgraced and convicted former Virginia GOP governor Bob McDonnell was living with before heading off to prison.
Atomicrob
. . . And we care where he is because . . . ?
youarekiddingme
@Atomicrob: …because he’s a fuckin criminal who needs to stand trial and go to prison for stealing hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars! That’s why we care…DUH! Wake up and read the news for once!
I guess unless you ENJOY the republicans taking your rights and your money…then just go back to bed and don’t worry about a thing.
