Does anyone recognize the hypocrisy of going after Massa, which
I'm sure is justified, while pretty much ignoring Ensign? Where's the outrage there? Has anyone seen any? :shrug:

2. um., there IS a difference in what was done
One is a serial groper and the other an idiot who let his dick lead to being blackmailed.

One similarity: Both showed bad judgment in rather large amounts.

3. Ensign did more than that, but that doesn't answer the question of
why this durned librul media is ignoring the trouble he's in. For instance, I haven't heard anyone mention this...

4. wasn't Massa like a 24/7 walking laugh gaff?
Massa left on his own then drew attention to himself on purpose in a string of highly quotable insanity. Where as Ensign circled the wagons and waited for the 24/7 news media to find easier stories. So I'm not sure if they compare. Massa seems more like the person trying to get Doctors paid in chickens.

5. There's one of the differences right there
And to OP: I never said Ensign shouldn't be held accountable. But, Massa did crazy en mass, so of course his antics get treated differently
