Unlike Bambi's Mom, George Allen's 'Severed Head Deer Story' Refuses to Die

More bad news for U.S. Sen. George Allen, and a second source has confirmed a story that, if true, is shameful, hateful, almost inhuman and just simply grotesque. During a hunting trip, Allen is alleged to have placed a severed deer head in a mailbox owned by a black family. The follow-up story is here.

Allen's Wikipedia entry offers a number of charming biographical details about Allen, including his minor role as a Confederate officer in the 2003 film Gods and Generals, his admission about how he may have displayed the Confederate flag on his car during high school, and how, for three consecutive years while governor of Virginia in the 1990s, he proclaimed April as Confederate History and Heritage Month, calling the Civil War "a four-year struggle for independence and sovereign rights."

Hmm, I always thought it was a war to save the union and/or free the slaves?

But here's my favorite part of his Wikipedia biograpy:

Allen's younger sister Jennifer Allen Richard alleges in her memoir Fifth Quarter: The Scrimmage of a Football Coach's Daughter (Random House Publishing, 2000) that Allen attacked his younger siblings during his childhood. She claims that Allen held her by her feet over Niagara Falls, struck her boyfriend in the head with a pool cue, threw his brother Bruce through a glass sliding door, tackled his brother Gregory, breaking his collarbone, and dragged Jennifer upstairs by her hair.

It's the kind of big brother we all dream of, no?

Allen is also strongly, firmly, fervently opposed to gay marriage as the single most important and dangerous threat to our sacred institution of marriage. It's unclear, however, whether gay marriage was directly responsible for the dissolution of his first marriage, which ended in divorce during the 1980s.

I bet this video gets Allen's toes a-tappin'.
