If you run on a values platform YOUR values are up for criticism not your Senior in high school making a mistake.
Watch out Aquilla you can't seem to handle it in the political threads seems its a bit to rough for ya.
iI agree it's a completely different situation with a family member as opposed to an elected official. Now, the problem I have is that this same mindset was being used last year when the strong "family values" champion the highly esteemed Senator David Vitter (R) of Louisiana was caught patronizing prostitues. Given what he said he stood for and what the Republican party says it stands for, his colleagues should have pushed for his resignation and demanded he step down from any committees he served on.
Many of the conservative talk radio goons and quite a few of my Republican friends were anxious to sweep it under the rug and "let the family deal with a private issue." When it's on publicly elected folks like him, is when the whole "private issues" thing reaks of hypocrisy.
