5. Add in Sen. Craig of Idaho
And Rep Foley of Florida, Rep Newt of Georgia, Rep Henry Hyde,
and Tom Delay of Texas.

It is not the sex but the hypocrisy.

So when do we get to put McCain in front of a grand jury and ask him about
his sex life?

6. I think that may have been a political vote -- pretty much went down
party lines for the most part.

8. You're not inferring he's another Republican hypocrite are you?
I'd prefer to think of John as the designated caretaker of the SS Republica Titanica on a course to the biggest goddam iceberg the 'pubs have ever experienced,

11. All those who have broke their marriage vows to God are guilty of PERJURY!
My guess is, it's about 1/2 of the republican hypocrites who voted guilty!

17. The impeachment charges were for lying under oath...
...about the BJ...not for getting the BJ in and of itself. Light and stupid as far as a basis for impeachment....but better than just going after BC for getting a BJ from Monica.

JMHO

19. And here's his (snicker, snicker) statement
Edited on Fri Feb-22-08 11:34 AM by Mabus
Mr. Ethical strikes again! :rofl:

"All of my life, I have been instructed never to swear an oath to my country in vain. In my former profession, those who violated their sworn oath were punished severely and considered outcasts from our society. I do not hold the President to the same standard that I hold military officers to. I hold him to a higher standard."

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bob-geiger/gop-senators-who-voted-fo_b_55010.html



You mean like you upheld yourself to the high standards of the Senate and the committees you're involved with? Oh, maybe, Senator, you're standards change depending on the situation and the benefits you can confer your lover and her clients.
