Someone was subbing for Rush Limbaugh yesterday, Mark Bellings I believe.
His defense of the Craig situation went something like this.
“I am not going to sit here and defend Larry Craig, but we get these articles today stating every misdeed by every republican over the last 4 years- Jack Abramoff, Tom Delay, Bill Frist, Mark Foley, Ted (Tubes –M.N) Stevens. They are trying to show this is a pattern in the Republican party. What about Barney Frank’s roommate running an escort service, Ted Kennedy driving off a cliff and leaving the girl he was with to drown, Bill Clinton having an affair with an intern in the oval office, William Jefferson and his thousands stuffed in a freezer.”
The list went on.
I wondered how many people came to the same conclusion I did. Our government is completely full of liars, thieves, and whores. Corruption is bipartisan. The only thing that upsets me about the Larry Craig issue specifically is the fact that he showed him a Senate business card and said “What do you think of that?”
If I had been the cop, I would have told him exactly what I thought of that.
