Gov. Sanford had an affair, well, how bad is that? Is it the same as
buggering congressional aides as Barney Frank did. IS it on the same
level as killing a young woman as Kennedy did? is it the same as
hiding $60,000 of bribe money in your freezer as Jefferson did? Is it
the same as getting multiple BJs by an employee and then committing
perjury? Is it the same as embezzling $80 million as Obamas buddies
did in Sacramento? Is it the same as pardoning someone for tens of
millions in tax evasion who then contributes to your campaign (Rich
and Clinton).
The problem as I see it is that Repubs are not ambitious enough when
it comes to committing crime compared to Dems.
