Comments for Wonkette : Lame Ensign Scandal Getting Super-Funny In A Hurry »

Prop it 41 3 drops Drop it

It was bad enough for sex person John Ensign when his mistress husband (his friend Doug Hampton!) claimed that Ensign paid Cindy Hampton $25,000 in severance when she left his PAC, because this may have been a campaign finance violation of some sort. Damn you, John McCain! But NOW, in the necessary legal response Ensign's lawyer has had to issue, we are provided with High Comedy: it was actually $96,000 and Ensign had to ask Mommy and Daddy pay it. Did Ensign have to mow the lawn in return?

The Acolytes of hypocrisy who darken our towels from the depths of political hubris seem to be an endless resource!

  Perhaps the US's new economy could be built on exporting comedy! The GOP is certainly the worlds leading supplier. And there seems to be a bottomless supply!
  If only there were a viable market for their comedians...it is a warped sense of humor that most don't quite understand. I mean when a guy raises 96, 000 dollars for a political campaign and pays off a wh*** with it...that's funny! Isn't it????

    It's not all that funny when one considers that this woman and her husband were employed by Ensign...and that he also got a GOP job for their 19-year old son.

    The only hypocrite in the bunch you list is Spitzer took down prostitution rings while visiting with prostitutes
    
    Maybe you need to learn the meaning of the word hypocrite.

        You know, I thought I remembered something about Sanford as well but wasn't sure.

        This is "very damaging stuff," Sanford declared at one point, when details of Clinton's conduct became known. "I think it would be much better for the country and for him personally (to resign)... I come from the business side," he said. "If you had a chairman or president in the business world facing these allegations, he'd be gone."

    Blago and Burris have been disownwed by the dems and Blago is already on the way to jail. If he was a republican he would still be in office screaming innocence and getting backed up by fellow republicans. While there are sleazes on both sides the republicans have almost microsoft like prescence in the BS market.

      Though some you mention may be unworthy of respect. Blago and Burris are the only ones putting on a clown show, and I see the Dems have chastized and disowned them. Therein lies one major difference.

It seems any news released about GOP politicians should not really be posted in "politics" but over in the "humor" posts!

I’m sure Mr. and Mrs. Ensign did what they thought was best for their boy.

I wonder if they’ll ground him?

A frontrunner for leadership of the "young" republicans (She's about 40) was kicked off Facebook for racism. I guess she's a shoe in now huh? Wink Wink.

Not my idea of comedy, but definitely funny. The party of the moral minority once again has a long way to fall when it is caught drinking from the same well as those they chastise for partaking in.

Shame, shame republicans for condemning prostitution, and gay rights, to the point were your own party has to hide their deviant behavior (your MORAL rules not mine!). Then you continue to stand by them as solid citizens while hypocritically running after others with torches and pitchforks. Shame, shame...
