Back when The Oklahoman launched the great "Ed Shadid Smear Campaign of 2013," one of the allegations they uncovered in the councilman's unsealed divorce records was that he really liked to party and once freebased cocaine with a male prostitute in San Francisco. Ed said the claims were "outrageous and completely untrue," which I believe, but The Oklahoman really didn't care because Ed had momentum in the mayor's race and they wanted to do their part in ensuring a victory for Mayor Cornett. It was all a big success.
Anyway, I bring this up because I needed an introduction paragraph for this post and I didn't want some angry Internet commenter accusing me of playing favorites. In case you haven't heard, Ed Shadid recently lobbied the Oklahoma City city council to legalize prostitution.
