EJ Dionne want us to go easy on poor Senator Vitter. It's a sex scandal you see, and that's a private matter. Not a chance:
“I’m a conservative who opposes radically redefining marriage, the most important social institution in human history,” Mr. Vitter, a 46-year-old Republican, wrote in a letter last year to The Times-Picayune, the New Orleans daily.
In human history? The depth and scope of Vitter's hypocrisy is amazing. This is a man who said Bill Clinton should be impeached for his immorality. Besides, Republican Bush-enablers need to be booted from the Congress as fast as possible. Who cares why they leave? A sex scandal? Fine by me.
Oh, and what he did is also illegal. Just sayin'.
I agree; let's pour as much salt in that wound as possible...hee-hee.

No, no, no! Don't you realize yet that laws do NOT apply to Republicans and/or the rich.
To mis-quote Leona Helmsley, laws are for the little people.

Maybe now's the time to challenge the legal prohibitions on prostitution. Republicans might even get on board for this. Legal prostitution is pure free market economics, just don't try to unionize the workers...

There's a good motto we should live by in such an instance. WWRD? What would Republicans do?
We know what they would do. They would impeach for a blowjob. Why should we back down for someone who did something much, much worse and illegal? To be nice? As they say, nice guys finish last. The voters say they like positive campaigning, but the reality is very different. We should attack these sons of bitches with everything we have.

If we boot Vitter, what will we do with all these adult diapers?

"All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others."
What part of this is unclear?
