Ted Kennedy killed a woman while driving drunk and never missed a beat, other than the fact that he can't be President.

Show me his conviction.

Bill Clinton impeached but one of the leaders of the democrat party.

Vito Fosella, the subject of this thread. Called the Clinton impeachment "A great day in American history."
So, while you list Democrats who have done bad stuff, this guy is even worse, because of the overt hypocrisy.

Jefferson accepts bribes but still in power as the dems protect him.

He was booted from comittees and stripped of all party funds. He narrowly won reelection.
He'll face his own day in court soon.

I want him gone for being an idiot and doing things that are not acceptable from someone in his position.
|
Don't we all? And it's not the affair, but the drunk driving. Guy should go to jail.

He probably will, but that doesn't matter.

If he does, he's going to cost the GOP a seat.

Ney as convicted, unlike any of those democrats you keep referring to, and after being convicted, (

Ted Kennedy still sits in a seat of power, Bill Clinton the same and Jefferson will not leave until he is in prison or he is not re-elected.

I want anyone who is in leadership that is a criminal dealt with regardless of party affiliation.
|
Don't we all. But, in our legal system, and in the court of public opinion, it certainly isn't for conservatives to simply decide that a Democrat comitted a crime they were never convicted of, or vice versa.

So you are saying, those that expect greatness in individuals should be dealt with more harshly than than those that justify any type of behavior.
|
No, I'm saying, let he who has no sins cast the first stone.
It's not about expectations for yourself, it's about projecting yourself as better than others, and the inevitable fallibility of human beings.

Well, that's all well and good.
Vito Fossella is F'ed.
