The End of the Republican Party

Cute kid - hope she didn't inherit the conservative gene ...Yes - I admit - I’ve enjoyed blogging about the rise and fall of Vito Fossella (R-NY). He’s a major-league shitbag who got caught driving drunk and, as it happens, has a second family just outside of DC (pictured).  Now that’s GOP family values!  And if you don’t believe the “shitbag” charge, get a load of this:

His socially conservative positions were in sync with his mostly white, heavily Roman Catholic district, which covers all of Staten Island and a small wedge of Brooklyn. He opposes abortion, favored President Bush’s tax cuts and voted with the Republicans 88 percent of the time last year, according to Congressional Quarterly.

Not enough for you?  He also lied to his girlfriend - said he’d split with his wife.

Like any good Republican, Vito initially refused to resign.  But now it appears he’ll be gone by Monday - perhaps, as Atrios said, to spend more time with his families.

Will there be any Republicans left next year?

UPDATE - More Republican family values:

The rich father and uncle of shame-faced, two-timing Staten Island Rep. Vito Fossella have been making sure his gal pal and love child are well taken care of in Virginia, sources close to the disgraced politician said yesterday.

“Uncle Frank and Vito Sr. were bankrolling the kid,” said one highly placed Republican official

IOW, Fosella's really concerned about fetuses but isn't concerned about what happens once a kid is, like, born.

Color me surprised.

Is it me, or does that creepy lookin' baby look like Mickey Rooney?

Jiminy Jillikers!

I love this shitbag. He can do no right.

I am far more concerned about the photo that appears in this post, sir. Does Annie Leibowitz have no shame? How much younger shall her naked subjects get?

He doesn't look like Rooney, He looks like Chris Matthews - all tweety and shit.

Marcus Aurelius is right. It looks exactly like Chris Matthews. Creepy.

If only the woman was a sister or cousin Vito would have scored a perfect trifecta ....hypocrisy, adultery, and incest! These straight repubs have got to try harder if they want to trump their closeted gay, toe tapping, child touching brethren.
