It's like saying that since GOP Congressmen sell out to special interests the Democratic Congressmen don't, which we all know is a load of crap.
The keyword is "hypocritical", and I've had my fill of it from both sides. We need politicians (and people in general) that say what they mean, and live by their words.

When republicans are caught in a similar scandal it usually involves making passes at guys in airport men's rooms or hiring someone from rentboys.com.

Yes, neither political party is free of libido-crazed (i.e. horny) male politicians who do stupid things.

If they could only be satisfied with a spouse, girlfriend or a boyfriend ... or at the very least stay home, watch internet porn and masturbate. That way they would stay out of trouble.

You could say the GOP is like a group of guys walking around all the time saying their schlongs are "freakin' HUGE" (insert Trump voice) Then when one is actually exposed and turns out it's embarrassingly tiny, their hypocrisy shines through and makes it clear as day they are full of it.

The dems on the other hand walk around and don't say anything. When one is exposed that their schlong is "freakin' HUGE" they can respond with "when did I say it wasn't?"

Seems one side of the fence doesn't have enough common sense to foresee the consequences of their actions. You know, the side that thinks continually spending money will ultimately get you out of debt?

You'd think that after the Wiener incident these guys would start using burn phones or pasted letters for this sort of thing.


What is very interesting (and typical) is that in the first 3-4 top search rerturns, the un-biased main-scream media failed to mention that Steinberg is a Democrat. I had to go to the Florida house website Florida House of Representatives - Richard*L.*Steinberg* to find out what his affiliation is. If this had been a Republican, it would have been blasted at 110 decibels.



Oh poor picked on Republicans....

It takes a special kind of stupid to stalk a prosecuter via text. She repeatedly told him to stop texting her.

But any insistence that we have to peg our values on your what your opinion of values means, and we'll buck. We don't want any part of it.

Besides, Repubs have already proven that they can't live up to that nonsense anyway, so i don't know why you guys keep trying to play that game. The *** has been up years ago. We already know that you're the same liars, crooks and hypocrites that everyone else is.

All I see is someone drawing lines and saying they, them and you, when referring to other Americans. You are also showing your intolerance, contradictory to the party line of complete tolerance. Hipocracy much? Do YOU even know what the word means? You lash out with a diatribe of it, and then have the nerve to point fingers. What a load of nonsense.

Basically you're saying that we are a second class citizen according to your twisted idea of what America represents.

And they're the educated smart ones with diplomas from other educated smart ones to prove it. If they could only figure out a way to pass a class on common sense.
