    Why aren’t Democrats rushing to Sanford’s defense saying “This is just about sex!!!”? Oh … right.

    IOKIYAD.

    (I personally think he should resign in shame. But as Democratics have told us for the last 11 years, Impeachment is not the proper venue for solving this issue.)

    Still living in the past I see. Clinton is always at the root of every problem, huh?

    And for conservatives, Reagan is always the root of every solution.

    It isn’t. It’s about misuse of state funds and disappearing on the people’s dime. Bill Clinton was really dumb for cheating on his wife, but he didnt just disappear.

    This is the way it goes; if it’s a Republican, they are forgiven for all their sexual transgressions because…well, because they love Jesus and NASCAR and we expect those assholes who run around preaching ‘family values’ to be the biggest liars and hypocrites.

    Spitzer resigned pretty damn quickly for banging some high priced ho’. Edwards got tossed under the bus just the same

    Compare to…

    Larry Craig
    Jon Ensign
    Sanford
    Diapers Vitter

    “André Bauer might be gay. It’s better to be an adulterer who uses state funds to leave the country without notifying anyone than to be gay”-SCGOP

    Why is it that the only Dixiecrat the wingnuts can’t forgive is the only one who apologized?
