It always confused me that LIBS can do these things (cheat, do drugs) and DON'T resign (Clinton, for example), but REPUBS who do this stuff ALWAYS resign...

...and it the answer from LIB apologists is always "we never held ourselves out to have 'family values' or what not." And this was an extremely unsatisfactory answer...

...and now I'm reading "Atlas Shrugged" and I just finished the part where Hank Reardon gives his big speech at this trial (about 1/3 through the book) and he talks abouts how - for people with a moral code, their failure to adhere is used against them - but for people with no moral code, they have nothing to adhere to, so they cannot be criticized, even thoguh they do in fact violate morality.

Do people who call themselves cons and vote repub cheat on their spouses? Yes. Why? You would have to ask them, but I doubt you would get good answers.
I have had a beer before, is that doing drugs? What about cold medicine? Or pain relievers?
Can you ask the same thing of liberals? Or are you assuming all cons are religious fanatics?
Someone asked a quest. earlier of what you think about people that made these broad stereotypical posts. Perhaps you should look into that one. I bet it is still posted!!

you're actual a conservative. you do not could desire to be a Republican in spite of the incontrovertible fact that it would help. undergo in suggestions that bill Clinton did not beat George H. W. Bush (sr) Ross Perot did. Clinton have been given decrease than a million/2 the vote and that's fairly lots commonplace that maximum of Perot's votes could have been for Bush had Perot not been there. i don't think of that Michael Steele will submit with the occasion nominating moderates back. extra registered republicans who vote for the conservative and don't issue approximately his faith will help in making particular we don't submit yet another RINO and supply the persons a genuine determination.

Of course they do .. just because you strive for higher values doesn't mean you aren't going to fall on your face sometimes.
We are all human beings and we all do sin, but we don't dwell on it or make it become norm. The dignity of the human being is what is on trial today.

To say. its okay to be immoral, do drugs, give out clean needles or condoms, support abortion clinics, etc doesn't do any good for a society. It's been proven time and time again.

Its like telling kids in school it doesn't matter if they get bad grades, get hooked on alcohol or drugs or have sex outside marriage, that 'happiness' is so short lived,in no time they don't care about anything or anyone, including themselves!

To give people hope, dreams and goals to make them feel like they can contribute; that is the way to give self worth and make a society great.

Well George W Bush himself was a big cocaine abuser in the 80's along with alcohol, Newt Gingrich had an affair and dumped his wife when she had cancer, so yes they do.
Why because despite the fact they may not want to admit it, they are human and make mistakes like everyone else.

My EX husband is a very conservative Republican. He smokes weed daily AND he cheated when we were married. I could live with the weed but refused to tolerate the cheating.

Easy answer: Rush Limbaugh & Newt Gingrich. Why because they made a bad decision, which ANY human is capable of doing.

I am drug free and am not married, so it would be impossible for me to cheat on a spouse.

The only difference is republicans don't carry their drug use as a badge of honor.
