Oh, I thought being a hypocrite was something ascribed to an individual and that one could only be a hypocrite if they personally esposed family values. I hadn't realized you had taken it to the political party level to make a point. I'll try to remember that the next time we are talking about Democrats.

Andy9o8 0 #29 February 10, 2011 QuoteI can't figure out why he resigned? Isn't the standard in DC that whatever someone does in their personal life their own business and that everyone has affairs and it's OK to lie to cover them up? Heck, this guy didn't even get laid and he goes and resigns. Party/ideology issues aside, he has a wife and son. Maybe he simply thought of them first. Perhaps he figured the sooner he resigned, the sooner he'd be out of the public spotlight, and the better (i.e., less bad) that would be for his family. He fucked up, so manning-up fast may very well be the best way to deal it and try to repair the damage to his and his family's life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heck, he didn't even get a blow job. But, I agree, he likely did it for his family so they wouldn't have to suffer the onslaught of the press. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,120 #31 February 10, 2011 And I agree with both of you. He fucked up, now he's trying to man up and move forward from where he is, rather than where he'd like to be.

Are you saying that if someone does not strongly support something, they are against it? If that's the case, then no - not being a republican does not mean you are against any republican planks.

davjohns 1 #47 February 10, 2011 How are you guys making this a Democrat v. Republican or liberal v. conservative thing? Is anyone keeping stats? I'm pretty sure they would be pretty even if you were paying attention. Jesse Jackson - Liberal - Love child Jimmy Swaggart - Conservative - Likes hookers ????I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because, in the Bizzarro World of Speakers Corner, it's OK to do just about anything no matter how vulgar and sleazy as long as you aren't a hypocrite. So a Democrat can cheat on his wife, get blow jobs, lie under oath etc. and that's OK. But a Republican who merely sends a picture of himself without a shirt on is considered a sleazy and needs to resign. Get it now? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You (and other conservatives) have kept up a steady stream of attacks against Clinton for over a decade now. If you've missed that you're being willfully blind.

davjohns 1 #50 February 10, 2011 I don't think Republicans are the only ones who claim to support family values or some such wording. I can't remember anyone running on the platform that they will be getting drunk while receiving blow jobs from interns in their office.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..
