- Such hypocrisy has become so common; perhaps it is time to put a name to it. How does THE GINGRICH/SANFORD SYNDROME sound?
Perhaps both sexual preferences should be demonstrated by calling it
THE GINGRICH/CRAIG SYNDROME. What do you think? Suggestions? - Reply to this comment
- The moral of the story seems to be if you have dreams of becoming president it is best to wait until you are elected president to have an affair (ala Bill Clinton). B/c there are no consequences after becoming president but it will ruin your chances of being elected president.
It's a pretty messed up world... - Reply to this comment
- I noticed last night that FOX news barely had any mention of this HAHAHA.
The only blurb they had was "is the liberal media enjoying the Gov Sanford confession too much?"
LOL....
Oh man Fixed "News" is hilarious... - Reply to this comment
- Typical comment from another Neo-Con living in delusional fantasy world as they consistently try to convince the rest of us that two plus two equals three and that black is really white....and they wonder why we call Neo-Con leaders like Limbuagh, Coulter, Beck and Hannity crazy......

- Ok, the posts have established that more or less the republicans run on family values/morals...so when they mess up, it looks worse because they are hypocrits. I can go along with that reasoning but my question is if the republicans run on this ticket, what kind of ticket do the democrats run on? What do you consider their "main theme" so to speak? And does anyone think that the democrats tend to take advantage of their family images when all looks well just like republicans do? The reason I bring this up is because it seems to me that even though the democrats mantra may not be "family values and morals, they too seem to at least cater to the over-all idea of this same ideology to some extent to gain voters. So aren't they guilty to some degree also or do they run on the exact oposite ticket? Which would be what...."Down with anything moral or family oriented so we can be the oposite of republicans." That doesn't make sense to me. So far, the only response I've gotten to this comment was "Don't deflect." Give me a break, this is intended for more discussion than that. When you start your comment out giving credibility to both sides of the coin...that usually means discussion, not total deflection.

- Glad he's not my Governor. First he tries to keep the Stimulus money from the people of his State, then he uses their tax payer money to fly around having affairs, and having fun, lies to his Staff, Family, and his Constituents, and makes up stories. Wow. What has he done for YOU lately?

Agreed! I have no problem talking about Issues but when someone starts with this "My Beliefs are Superior to your's" crap, I go NUTS! I was brought up with the knowledge that ALL Men are created equal and that EVERY America had a right to his OWN beliefs.

True everyone has a right to believe what they want, but I have no where said my beliefs are superior to anyones.... - Reply to this comment
- No deflection here, simply responding to current discussion already on the table, you know, there can actually be two sides to any discussion without "deflection" being a factor. I happen to agree with this being about keeping our vows, etc..regardless of political affiliation.
