Sit down for this one[/url]...
Remember this?



So what is your point?

Your 'ad-up' of identifications would make more sense if Democrats had an equal number of scandals as Republicans. Not that it matters anyway. Perhaps you're afraid that people are as dumb as those who watch Fox News and associate the actions of a few with the many. Not only that, but if you're really stretching this as far as you do, why aren't you complaining about the fact that the media never labels Bush as a Republican after his shitload of scandals that are much worse than someone getting a little action?

Also, please notice the times when they give the appropriate nomenclature; when they're members of Congress. The "D" or "R" comes after their state designations. E.g., it doesn't make much sense to say "NY- R" after they already said "governor of New York". Whilst "Rep." or "Sen." requires some clarification.

Please, do us a favor; shut up and take your tin foil with you.
