I'm simply amazed by the audacity. One Republican has to go back 39 years to Ted Kennedy to damn the entire Democratic party and the other Republican claims that one hummer given to a Democratic President damns it. Yet you would have us simply ignore the dozens or maybe hundreds of Republican officials in the last 30 years that have been disgraced or sent to prison or both...we can start naming names if that is the route you prefer. Wanna start with the Keating 5? Larry Craig? Lewis Libby? Oliver North? Rush Limbaugh? Shoot...Dick Cheney (or is that ... please DON'T SHOOT ME, Mr Vice President!)? (Dang, give me time and this could prove to be fun...) There are bad eggs in this world. Pointing one out does not damn an entire political party no matter how well that view looks from inside your rose-colored glasses.
