However, I am loath to hear anyone take pot shots at the Republican party for ethics violations... considering the vapid response democrats had to a comander in chief who actually perjured himself.

go bark under a different tree.
The point is that the Republican's of SC held an all day conference call over a month ago and never could come to conclusion on what they wanted Mark Sanford to do. Is it really unclear what he should do? Being the upholders of all things, right, moral and fiscally sound they should have called for his resignation, but they refused too.

NOW it will be in the hands of the AG since it looks like he may have broken the law.

Bill Clinton perjured himself and yes, Ken Starr spent $62 million to prove he lied about sex. He was impeached but never convicted. It certainly wasn't swept under the rug Ferd. It was a full blown circus courtesy of the Republican party.

No one's taking pot shots at the Republican party. Mark Sanford is the one who chose to leave the country without anyone being in executive charge of his state for four days. He apparently is also the one who chose to waste tax payer dollars illegally all the while pretending to champion fiscal conservatism for every cable news network who'd give him air time. Sounds like he "pot shot" himself to me.

I don't care about Republicans having moral lapses as long as their moral lapses aren't a hindrance to their official responsibilities. What Mark Sanford, Newt Gingrich, Bob Livingston, Mark Foley, Tim Hutchison, and David Vidder do on their own time is a private matter.

Now the Republican party tries to portray itself as a bastion of family values, Godliness and morals so when one of the family values boys proves to not have any, the public finds it hypocritical.

When laws are broken and states are left with no executive in charge, that's a different story.

No the point is, the Republican party isnt on the hook for this and anyone who keeps up with American politics ought to know that the DEMOCRATS have caused a complete abandonment of morlity by political parties.

You people want an uneven playing field. Democrats can do anything they want but Republicans have to live by the moral standard of a cloistered nun!

THAT IS JUST PELOSI! (read my thread on my new cuss word).

The FACT is that the republicans in South Carolina dont have a roll to play in this. Sanford lives and dies by his own deeds. if he is guilty of a crime then the AG of the state needs to file charges. If the AG doesnt file charges then everyone needs to shove something in their pie hole and stop acting like every repbulcan in the country shelped an hispanic woman.

I am about sick of this double standard. You and the libs dont get to be the moral po-po when it comes to what Republicans do or dont do.

we will handle our own affairs ourselves.

thank you

the non-management.

I disagree. The Republican party of SC definitely has a vested interest politically in what one of their members is doing. It will affect their fundraising efforts and their credability to all of the "family values" folks who are sold on the Repubs.

There is a double standard because the Repubs have sold themselves as moral, upright, and family values folks. Afterall, that's what most Republicans vote for right?

Dems and Indepedents don't vote on values issues as the main cog in the platform.

The double standard is exactly what the Republican party has developed for their benefit right?

Re: The hypocrisy of Mark Sanford continues

TRENTON, N.J. – State Republicans on Friday said Gov. James E. McGreevey should step aside immediately, one day after the governor revealed he is gay, had an extramarital affair and will resign in November

Briberies did him in. As a gay, he was a faithfull democrat

Sorry your team lost the moral high ground when Bill perjured himself. You dont get to play in this game. we dont want your input.

So Ferd because Bill did wrong it is OK for the SC REPUGNANT to lie, cheat on wife and steal money from the tax payer for a hair cut that cost over a Thousand dollars?
