I like the way you associate a dirty Republican with the 'Presidents Republican party'. Why don't you take a walk through the prisons and see how many of these people are registered with Nancy Pelosi's Democratic party. Of course, that may not suit your agenda.

very true. when the left, or 'Bill Clinton's Democrates' get nailed. it's the old 'they all do it'.
which makes it fine for them. Who was the Dem that was caught with 80,000 in his refrigerator?
the 'Clinton Dem', or should I say the 'Nancy Pelosi Democrat' was let off the hook and re-elected no problem. I am a republican, and from Ohio at that, and happy to the fact this clown Ney was nailed.
they guy should be barred from running for office again. it is very interesting how the left's corruption is given a pass, or just buried in the media, and the right had their leader forced out for being a 'meany',
or 'or so called mean spirited' in their childish terms. Government should be collectively held to abid by the law, left or right. By the way, if a Republican does some good, is he still a 'George Bush Republican'?:)

More assigning blame, even more to come when the Republication leader of morality, ethics and the personification of Conservative values. Tom Delay.
Wait till he get convicted the Republican will point the finger at Jesus and the Pope as being the problem.
Face it guys, you espouse the Values front, but can't walk the line.
With these Republican value who needs sin.

' Government should be collectively held to abide by the law, left or right'
Period. As I was saying, nailed them all. Being from the left should not mean you can select only a few laws to adheare to. if Tom Delay is guilty of breaking any law, nail him too. your agruement does not make sense within the current comments. no one is giving Nay a pass here.

Following the line of these comments; you BF are the only one who, rightly so, held these criminals to the standard of law.
Others are not asking for them to take responsibility. But instead they try to argue Democrats get off easy.
Instead of changing the fact a 'holy than thou' Republican got caught.
Admit these Republican with there claim of 'Higher Moral Values' are hippocrates and are worse than a common criminal.

Your headline is so biased. Why don't you learn to write news, instead of 'propaganda'. You are misleading the public.
