Take for example, the Clinton trial....
Never before have a group of people been so adamant about finding out what someone has done in the bedroom and demanded such rigorous honesty.
Now, take a look at Charlie Crist, he is the 3rd "closeted gay" Republican to be outed down in Florida and they don't want to pursue it because it would cause him to lose the election for Governor this November.
What are your thoughts?

Hahaha. I like you because you're so funny. The world would be more peaceful if more people were funny like you.
When you say held to a different standard, I'm assuming you mean held by someone else. So how Republicans treated Clinton compared to how Republicans treat other Republicans isn't the current topic of conversation. You're talking about how the press treat the parties, and is there a different standard. Yes, there is a different standard, as demonstrated by the media coverage.
Which party do you think gets more favorable coverage by the media?
Hmmm...

I like your point. I don't think it was fair what Clinton went through because of his little trist either. I remember traveling abroad alot that year and the europeans just thought it was fascinating that our president was going through the ringer over here over a sexual encounter. I explained it then as I explain it now. It's simply an excuse to sell newspapers and air time. It was a huge waste of tax money to have that seedy little lawyer spending close to a billion dollars of tax money uncovering a sexual affair. Get real. What did that ever have to do with presidential duties. It had everything to do with his duties as a husband. But, that and is between Hilary and him.
As for the recently uncovered republican gays and child molesters. Well, it could mean that those who protest the loudest could be the most guilty.

Of course Republicans are held to a different standard, they are supposed to be "conservative." Anyone who knows gays or are gay would usually not consider themselves to be conservative although we all know not to give in to stereotypes right?
Democrats are stereotypically "liberal" so they are expected to be gay and judged for it.
Even when it comes to Dems having sex period, it is always some exploited scandal, meanwhile their republican counterparts are all undercover doing the same thing. It is what it is, the world is not fair and all men are "NOT" created equal these are just lies fed to us through the years. Don't plan on they system changing any time soon.

to a pair quantity, I accept as true with all those factors. If a female is the only criminal participant who can pick despite if or no longer she could have the youngster, then why isn't the guy the only criminal participant who can pick despite if or no longer he may additionally help the youngster? i'm involved by adult adult males having extra rights with regard to the abortion itself, yet i'm no longer sensible adequate to be sure a thank you to place that into suitable law. with or with no courtroom order, if a guy needs the youngster and the girl does not, there is no longer something that anybody can do to end the girl from terminating the being pregnant despite if she sees extra healthful. I do carry adult adult males and girls to the comparable common, as I understand that the two events are in charge and that contraceptives are actually not a hundred% effectual. while you're actually not waiting to develop a baby, you're actually not waiting for intercourse, and this is no longer proper despite in case you have a vagina or a penis, or the two if it somewhat is your element. yet i assume that as long as there is organic and organic inequality, there heavily isn't gender equality.

Yes, and they should be. Republicans preach morality more and should be held accountable when they don't respond to moral failure adequately. Besides, historically republicans are corrupted by money and democrats by sex, that is just the way its supposed to be.

Of course. We don't elect perverts to the presidentcy, or give them Senatorial seats in NY. Florida is the second land of fruit and nuts (Californina is the first). You can't blame the entire Republican Party for a couple of fruit loops.
