Just because the newly outed pervo (and now “Victim” ) Mark Foley is a Republican doesn’t mean we conservatives are going to magically become Democrats come November. Just a thought.
FYI, there was a Washington Post article yesterday regarding the difference in outcomes between Rs and Ds who have been caught in scandalous activities, i.e., Republicans are ousted, Democrats refuse to be ousted and are often re-elected for additional terms. Well, we know there’s a double standard, but beyond that, I guess Democrats hold their elected officials to a much lower standard of behavior. Good for them (insert sarcasm here)!
Frankly, I find the brazen, low behavior of all these guys (and gals – they can be scum, too!) sickening and unacceptable. No taxpaying citizen should just give them - or any complicit parties - a pass. Demand accountability!

We already have accountability. It's called the ballot box, and for Congress-critters it comes around every two years. The Post article is most excellent, pointing out that the "hypocrisy" narrative resonates, given the GOP's wrapping itself in the mantle of "values" (insert your own interpretation of what that means here). And after all, as GOP campaign managers know far better than Democratic ones, all most voters really want is a good narrative. Which is too bad.
