The American Mind

I think probably you guys should be a little more concerned about the real pedophiles in the Republican party, not the imaginary ones in Webb’s head.

Just so someone says it, i’d like to remind the lovely readers that when Republicans get outed for writing lurid subject matter (i.e. Scooter Libby and the bearsex or whatever that was), it’s funny because they belong to a political party that has a history of trying to legislate morality. Hypocrisy by association? Unfair? Maybe. But it’s funny! And in the case of, say, Alan Keyes, who condemns homosexuals to hell even when he has a lesbian daughter, it’s fairly telling of him as a person.

Democrats don’t exactly have a reputation for trying to, you know, keep sodomy illegal or anything like that, so even though the material in Webb’s book may be racy, taboo, sick, whatever…it’s not as blatant a show of hypocrisy.

Anyway, the important point is that focusing on fiction is stupid.

Chet,

We are deeply concerned about the Pedophiles in the Democrat Party…

And certainly… I rolled my eyes when I heard this story.

It’s a fictional book! Who cares!

It has absolutely nothing to do with Senate business, except if James Webb plans to donate his book sales profits to saving Social Security.

DJ,

You are ridiculous.

Democrats have JUST AS MUCH hypocrisy as Republicans.

I am sick of the tired, old, old, old, beat up argument that Republicans = Moral and therefore anything Republicans do wrong is far worse than Democrats.

You guys are hell bent on distorting reality in order to make your Political Party look better than the Republicans, regardless.

Sick of it!

Why is it that Liberals carry 1 set of rules for Republicans and a completely different set of rules for themselves?

“Why is it that Liberals carry 1 set of rules for Republicans and a completely different set of rules for themselves? ”

As long as Republicans insist on telling us about their determination to hold themselves to a higher moral standard than the other guys, we’re going to keep judging them against that standard.

It’s the hypocrisy, stupid.

First of all, Republicans do hold themselves to a higher moral standard than the Democrats.

When Democrats are pedophiles they get re-voted in and at worse suffer a censure with a round of applause.

Mark Foley was immediately removed out of the House!

There is no hypocrisy what-so-ever.

And that’s my point.

You MORONS give Republicans a completely different set of rules than yourselves.

I guess this is more proof that LIBERALS = EVIL IDEOLOGY.

Both Political Parties have to be held accountable to the same moral standard.

Otherwise instead of Republicans versus Democrats…

We end up with GOOD versus EVIL.

If that’s what you want CHET THE BRAINLESS MORON TWIT, then that’s fine with me. As long as you understand that you are making your political party look like absolute Dirt.
