If he's guilty, the courts wil take care of it--and should. No one on the Democratic side claims all Democratic politicians are honest.
There are two differences, however, between the Democrats and the Republicans when it comes to scandels, however. The first s that there are a lot more crooked and perverted Republican politicians and officials.
The second is that, unlike the neocons, wwe DON'T try to excuse or cover up wrongdoing. Which is the main reason WHY there is far less corruption on the Democratic side.

Why should this be a partisan outrage? Where is the outrage from both sides of the isle? Where is the prosecution of these kinds of acts. Remember neo's people in glass houses shouldnt throw stones. We should join together and prosecute. Though i'm betting it would open more seats for Dems.

Although I am not a liberal, but a moderate, I am outraged at this man's behavior. But what exactly is your point? Liberal politicians are probably outraged too, but since they are politicians, they basically remain silent so as not to irritate their base. This is what politicians do. The liberal "man (or woman) on the street" is probably outraged too, but he (or she) has many other issues to be more outraged about, I guess; I don't socialize with liberals. And after all, "The Washington Post" -- hardly a right-wing newspaper -- did publish this story, on their website at least.

Jeff...Babe
Well we 'lefties' think he should be set free because he is obviously the victim of conservative hit-men, sorry, hit-people. You darn vast right wing schemers.
Get a grip. We like justice too and even respect its exercise. This guy, if guilty, and he appears to be, deserves whatever he gets. Hopefully, it won't be a country club sentence. I can't stand the thought of him and Scoots being cell mates. That could be cruel and unusual punishment.
Guilty is guilty. Let the ax fall. Sorry, too liberal for you?

I am outraged, convict him quickly, then let President Bush commute his sentence.

I'm actually surprised to see that story on the Washington Post's website.

He's accused of a crime. If he's guilty he should go to jail, just like all the Republicans.
