Round up... recent Family Values gopers whose masks have fallen off

[salin]

-Bribery... from the recently resigned New England Governor Rowland.
-Gambling (big bucks gamblins)... Dick Bennet
-Sex Offender - sex with a minor... former Mayor of Waterbury
-Groping and extramarital sex (at least of the caliber of Clinton's)... the new gov of California

and ??? what to tag ole Jack Ryan's current disclosures...

Who else belongs on this moral high road list?

[greekspeak]

1. The rep Janklow from SD

who killed someone with his wreckless driving and did all he could to get out of it.

[TreasonousBastard]

2. Randi Rhodes...

spent a lot of time today on this list:

My personal favorite (not specifically on the list, but she talked about it) was Strom Thurmond riding in the car going to the death chamber with the first woman to be executed in the state, and screwing her on the way.

4. ewwwwww.

I heard, but forgot, that Spermin' Thurman story (his nick name on the Hill back in the 1980s)

3. another divorce by rush limbaugh?

divorce by most is no big deal to me. but the way he carries on, the third has got to raise questions about his moral authority IMO.

5. funny thing... caught his show a month ago (for a few minutes)

he was trying to make the distinction why divorce among heterosexuals was not a threat to the institution of marraige, while gay marriage is. His point was something about that when a man and a woman marry... they have hope - they intend to stay together - and to have children... that somehow this "hope" even if in the end they divorce... and the "potential" to have children - make divorce not a threat to the "sanctity of marraige".

Now we know he was blowing extra hot air due to... again... his messy non family vaules personal life.

Of course Rush gets a double award - one also for massive, long-standing, illegal drug procurement and use.

6. More steaming piles of horseshit from Limbaugh.

That truly is one of most ridiculous, idiotic, brain dead things I've ever read in my 48 years of life on this planet. That laughably idiotic attempt to justify his homophobia is breathtaking in its hypocrisy.

7. It made no sense...and he knew it.

So he kept repeating it over and over again as if it was going to make any more sense the second, or fifth time around.

I really can not imagine what it must be like to live with that much hate, and with that much knowledge of how untrue his own life is to the spew he fills the air with every day. Rumors are that when not on the air he is almost a hermit, uncomfortable around others, rather slovenly and very isolated. Not sure if tht is because he feels so lousy about who he is (as suggested by the above description) - or because he is intolerable for others to spend time in his company. blech.

8. makes ya wanna take drugs

[Insider]

10. so far, so good

[salin]

12. am reduced

to brief posting spurts... sorta have to get my fill when I can - and then be gone for days on end... life has just gotten very busy (but today is one of those big DU indulgent spurts! :D Glad I could share it with you!)

[Cleita]

11. This is the party of family values.

It looks like the family has a lot of skeletons in the closet.

[Jacobin]

13. How did you forget Bill "Double Down" Bennett

Author of the "Book of Virtues"

:-)

And the dozens of repuke congresscritters that Larry Flynt zapped with their mistresses as they were about to try Clinton for adultery, um, I mean impeach him.

And Newt Gingrich serving his wife who was dying in the hospital of cancer with a divorce petition so he could marry his secretary,
