10. Wow! That sure takes me back ... Earth Angel!
The Dell Vikings, the Platters, Buddy Holly, early Chuck Berry, the Coasters and all that wonderful pre-Motown R&B music of the 50s. I grew up on them and Bo Diddley, Richie Valens, Fats Domino, Bill Haley, Santo & Johnny ... yeow.

27. Yes, and penguins are wise beyond their anticipated species smarts.
Some penguins are special indeed. And they understand us.

11. It's the republicans who pushed him out of the Senate, not the Dems
not that many of us are going to miss him, mind you.

I suspect the cop was a republican, even.

13. Poor Larry, no credibility after 27 years of serving in Congress.
I guess one could say his career went into the crapper.

LoL

15. Sex sells -- because the urge to reproduce is fundamental to life.
And when the sex is, shall we say, "unusual," it arouses our curiosity to boot. Everyone is absolutely amazed to learn about the "activity" that Craig is accused of soliciting. Most of us had never heard of anything like that, so we are very curious.

As for Vitters, I think we just view him as another phony fool. We all make mistakes, but the mistakes he made are really easy to avoid. And then, on top of all that, there is the hypocrisy.

I remember that Democrats as well as Republicans were angry at Clinton. And remember Gary Hart. He was a Democrat who was ruined by a sex scandal.

20. Lordy, Does This Ever Nail It!

Next time some well-meaning DUer pleads that we have to make nice and not let ourselves "sink to their level," this strip needs to be trotted out. Thank you, Tom Tomorrow......

Their hypocrisy knows no bounds.

Everyone here realizes of course that if Idaho had a Democratic Governor we'd be having an entirely different discussion.

29. well i would love to get a Senator
under my control, so lets say Craig, enters the bathroom does those I want to suck your dick passes and I say sure. While he is doing this i record him and then blackmail him to do my bidding in the Senate. I say America should be grateful a police officer got him and not someone from lets say China, Russia, Israel. Get my point
