FTA:
"He's entitled to an interval of decency without having this constant pressure coming from his own party," King said of his friend charged with drunken driving in a Virginia suburb.
HOWEVER, Democrats are never entitled to the same interval of decency. These cons need to stop thinking anything they do is ok. I know Spitzer was dealing with prostitutes, but adultry is adultry.

    I guess I'm wondering if we'll start seeing CNN do nightly chatfests about how horrible it is that the GOP is "throwing him under the bus." I wonder if we will... ;-x

    LIBS:
    "Well, he is in New York where that kind of thing seems to be a political past time lol. Should the new NY gov also resign after admitting his philandering?"
    At least David Paterson and his wife both consented and knew of these affairs during the rough patch in their marriage.
    Shouldn't David Vitter (R-LA) be forced out of office for confessing to hiring prostitutes from the DC madam--the EXACT crime for which Elliott Spitzer was forced out of office? Instead, he was greeted by the GOP WITH APPLAUSE.
    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19795296/
    "Louisiana Sen. David Vitter returned to the Capitol Tuesday, apologizing privately to GOP colleagues but refusing to take reporters' questions about the sex scandal. In a private weekly luncheon for Republican senators in the Capitol, Vitter briefly spoke and received a round of applause audible outside the room."
    Your partisan hypocrisy is astounding.

      "At least David Paterson and his wife both consented and knew of these affairs during the rough patch in their marriage."
      --Sadly, when Democrats forgive the transgressions of their spouses, this often seems to enrage right wingers even more than the actual sin being forgiven. Consider right wing women as well as subhuman creatures like Katherine Harris, for a moment. Note that I said, "consider" them --not *visualize* or get an image of them in your head. Now, these disgusting, ignorant servile sheep who are willing to vote for McCain (a doddering, finger-counting, imbecile who isn't even afraid to tell them he believes women deserve to be paid less than men) despise Hillary Clinton. Why? Because she had the courage to keep private her feelings about her husbands moral failings. Oh, do the wingjob women hate Hillary. Why won't she melt down in public? How dare she allow this experience to make her stronger. Damn her! ;-x

      Well at least they will have a lot of friends in hell. Although I don't think they will be applauding. LOL

  I loved this quote:
  "King said Republicans "who are supposed to be his friends" should be giving the Staten Island-Brooklyn Republican "the time and opportunity to make that decision" -- whether to resign, to serve out his term but leave afterward or to stay in office and seek another term -- "himself."
  --What King means is that the "liberal media" needs more time to manufacture another "controversy" about Barack Obama potent enough to shove Fossella out of the headlines for a couple of weeks (much like the Wright story did for Spitzer--albeit a little too late for him, unfortunately), and give him time to cry and bite his lower lip on cue on camera and announce he's going into rehab.
