My Least Favorite Story of the Week

The developing scandal surrounding Senator Larry Craig is just...ugh.

I am so tired of Republican politicians who sacrifice the good of the party and the nation in order to pursue their own selfish desires. We deserve better from the people we entrust to represent us in Washington.

On the positive side, Republicans usually clean house pretty quickly. The same, sadly, often cannot be said for the Democrats: Gerry Studds, Barney Frank, Bill Clinton, William Jefferson, Patrick Kennedy...or, locally, Antonio Villaraigosa.

Ed Morrissey makes a great point, that Patrick Kennedy was an actual danger to the public, driving under the influence, yet no one demanded he leave office.

And, of course, the media aids and abets the Democrats with this double standard.
