I am unaware of any such Rep that has been given such leisure while charges continue to build against him.

then you must not pay attention. as for your bias being irrelevant, i would disagree-you are stating as fact that both sides don't get treated the same, when in fact they do. they engage in these behaviors, and sometimes they get caught-they being POLS-regardless of party.

I disagree with your assessment......seems like Reps err with sex entanglments and Dems(with the exception of Bubba) just steal the citizen blind!

Um ... that stealing part goes both ways. For example, the last four year of US dollars given by our government to Iraq, to help them "rebuild the country", given with zero accountability?

Billions, just "gone".

And Haliburton.

i'm not surprised you disagree at all. you suggested your bias didn't affect your opinions, but if your bias skews your perspective-as it does-then obviously it will affect everything you think about your party.

as i mentioned a few posts ago, john mccains name was all over that savings and loan scandal back a few years.
then there's iran contra, nixon and watergate-none of those are sex scandals. i'm pretty sure that while keating and company were taking their lumps, mccain remained in office. reagan did his eight, nixon chose to resign but was pardoned by his former vp....etc, etc
