As the child of a so-called Deadbeat Dad (birth father), I have a very real question for Representative Joe Walsh, Republican of Illinois... How could you abandon your children?

Oh, and how does a man of such supposed stature, think this wouldn't eventually become known? Is it a case of IOKIYAR? (It's OK If You Are Republican)

And, as the wife of a man who DID pay his child support - In Illinois - I call B.S.!
