Claims to fame: Republican Monroe Township (Cumberland County), Pennsylvania, commissioner (2004-2008); member, Children’s Services Advisory Board, member, Victim/Witness Policy Board; member, South Central Assembly for Effective Governance; member, Military Heritage Board; member, DUI Advisory Board; member, Holy Spirit Hospital Corporation board; former chair, Monroe Township Municipal Authority; recipient, Award of Excellence, Pennsylvania Chiefs of Police Association; self-made businessman; current host father to two high school exchange students; past host of 15 others; closet case; voyeur; rape suspect; idiot
Moral apex: Became “focus of a state police rape investigation” after a March 30, 2008, rape allegation by an adult male triggered a raid on Barclay’s home April 2nd. Barclay resigned from his county the same day, when the news went public (although details are sketchy; a judge has sealed search-warrant documents for 60 days). As of this writing, no charges have been filed.
But wait! There’s more! Barclay has a thing for male prostitutes — and for videotaping his sexual encounters with them, without their knowledge.
Memorable observations:
In the 30 years after he graduated from high school, Bruce Barclay’s name became a synonym on the West Shore for hard work, philanthropy and homegrown goodness.— Patriot-News

Suggested Bible reading for Mr. Barclay:
And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.— Matthew 18:9
