More manipulation and divisive low blow tactics by scumbag Republicans.
To the Fox Republicans who think that their party is not bigoted:
We have Senator Craig caught redhanded in fashioning a statement concerning his future plans that is a blatant lie. On the voicemail he mistakenly left on a stranger's answering machine, the Senator told his lawyer to say that it was his intent to resign. He said, however, that Senator Specter supported him not resigning and indicated he hoped to stay in office. Craig's statement that he intends to resign was far less honest than "I did not have sex with that woman" (in case you forget, Clinton's famous line). It's really hard to prove what someone's intent was - you know, what was in his or her heart of hearts. This fool Craig managed to record an admission directing his lawyer to lie for the world to hear. Somehow you don't seem to have any problem with this. I really don't understand how.
Also, the Fox Republican officials and politicians deep sixed Craig shortly after this scandal involving homosexuality emerged. In contrast, they are still huddling around Senator Vitter, a guy who didn't just get caught soliciting, but in fact did the dirty deed on his wife and family countless times, after he pontificated to us about the importance of family values and his wife chastised Hillary saying if she were Hillary she would have cut Bill's thingie off no less.
So let's review. Let's lay it out there for everyone. On the one hand we have Senator A caught soliciting one time. On the other hand we have a Senator B caught using a prostitute countless times. Both Senator A and B deny their actions and still get caught. What happens to Senator A who was merely soliciting sex once, when the sex was homosexual? Trashed and out. Adios bandejo. What happens to Senator B who is busted having sex all over the place with women prostitutes and more women prostitutes? Still there. No problemo.
Please tell me that after this blatantly prejudiced treatment of Senator A and all the anti-gay marriage, anti-gays in the military, tossing officials out of leadership positions when they come out of the closet (e.g. ex-Republican Party Chair Ken Mehlman) and all the other Fox Republican homophobic rhetoric, that the frops don't have a serious problem with homophobia. If somehow you don't think that, again I really don't understand how.
