The Real Impropriety

clipped from instapundit.com What is it with these guys that they can't even run a proper sex scandal? Who ever heard of sex scandals without sex? At least when the Democrats have a sex scandal, it involves real, honest to goodness sex. Yeah, I know, Bill Clinton said the sex wasn't sex. But let's face it, it was. Had Bill tapped Monica's foot, the most he'd have been accused of was playing footsie, and there'd have been little to no outcry, much less an impeachment. And as Matthew Sheffield makes clear, the double standard is appalling; Democrats keep their jobs after drowning women in cars or keeping male brothels, while Republicans are hounded out of office for sex scandals without even the component of sex. If I were the American people, I'd be totally sick of sexless Republican sex scandals by now. The GOP needs to shape up.

Frankly, I'm disgusted that anyone is spending a nanosecond on this crap. Amusing Ourselves To Death indeed.

The double standard is appalling though. We even have Barney Frank standing up for Craig and it goes unexamined.
