I've always said that if a republican president had performed sex acts with a cigar on an intern the democrats would have raised hell, and on the contrary, the republicans would have tried to justify it. I just wish more people would own up to the fact that it's two sided.

Oh there are a couple of "conservatives " on here that might have posted it if the party was reversed though one was recently banned for making truly vile homophobic remarks in this thread.But of course you are right in general and that is politics..the Republicans with their often homophobic legislation ,bible thumping and in Palin's case preposterous notions of sex education just set themselves up though when the scandal is in their own house.And BTW I believe it was a Dem that posted the John Edwards scandal on here.
