Peaceful Bill wrote: The real bottom line is the double standards by which liberals are judged vs. the way conservatives are judged. If these picks were for the previous administration, they would have been prosecuted and sent to jail. There would have been no end of harsh criticism in the press. You're talking from where most people do their farting again, Mr. Jelly. Nobody, liberal or conservative, who makes trivial, honest mistakes on their tax returns goes to jail. I wonder what kind of bull**** you'd be spewing if it was a liberal Senator who was caught doing the wide stance tap dance in the Men's room. You'd be screaming for jail time wouldn't you ? -- Ken Fortenberry The wide stance Liberal that is admitted gay, and has his aid / companion running a male prostitution ring from his house gets a chairmanship. Double standard? First of all, what in the hell does Frank's being gay have to do with anything - IOW, are you suggesting that if he had been a straight guy shacked up with a gal running girls without his knowledge, it would have been OK? IAC, it's pretty clear that Frank had no idea what his "companion" was up to. I'd offer that while Frank has gotten some stuff wrong, he is, in general, a pretty decent legislator (judging him by the standard of legislators), even though I personally disagree with much of what he believes as far as politics go...as to what he does in the bedroom, I don't give a tinker's damn - I'm certainly not interested in asking (or knowing) and I'm hoping he continues to be uninterested in telling... HTH, R I do not care that Barney is gay. I do care about the pass he gets when his companion runs a prostitution ring out of Barney's house. Gay or straight prostitution does not matter. But Barney got a pass from the fourth Estate and Congress. If you are going to complain about a congressman tapping his shoe in the john make the same standards apply across the board. A companion with unfettered and undocumented access to the White House running an illicit business should cause a lot of flap. Same with the tax error nominees. They should be getting the same penalties any other taxpayer that makes an error gets. Nope, they are getting a free ride. Sort of like getting caught leaving the bank you just robbed and giving the money back and walking away without charges. Unfortunately, I used to think Barney was probably the smartest person in Congress, but after all the support of FM $ FM during the bad loan era, I have killed that thought. He may be intelligent, but he is not smart. |
