GOP Lawmaker Caught Setting Up Gay Rendezvous (http://politicalwire.com/archives/2011/08/12/gop_lawmaker_caught_setting_up_gay_rendezvous.html )
Emails shared with the Indianapolis Star (http://www.indystar.com/article/20110812/LOCAL1804/108120333/Email-rendezvous-entangles-state-Rep-Phillip-Hinkle?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|IndyStar.com) suggest that Indiana state Rep. Phillip Hinkle (R) -- responding to a local posting on Craigslist -- offered a young man $80 plus tip to spend time with him Saturday night at a local hotel.
Said one email: "Cannot be a long time sugar daddy, but can for tonight. Would you be interested in keeping me company for a while tonight?"
The emails, sent from Hinkle's publicly listed personal address, ask the young man for "a couple hours of your time tonight" and offer him cash up front, with a tip of up to $50 or $60 "for a really good time."
According to the Evansville Courier & Press (http://www.courierpress.com/news/2011/aug/12/state-rep-phil-hinkle-accused-trying-set-tryst-man/), Hinkle voted earlier this year for a constitutional gay marriage ban and his official bio (http://www.in.gov/legislative/house_republicans/homepages/r92/bio.htm) says he's married with two children.
