Falling

Dinesh D'Souza blogs today that hypocrisy is the tribute vice pays to virtue. It's a kind of support, I suppose. Don't be suspicious of the hypocrite, he writes, but of the one who levels a charge of hypocrisy not to raise up a sinner but to toss out the principle violated by the hypocrisy.

That Dinesh. Love that confident sinner talk. How could anyone eat at the same table with that?

I asked my friend Bob: Is that really how gay men proposition a stranger in a bathroom? Is that the code? Bob nods and brushes it off at the same time. "It's so sad," he shakes his head, "that in this day and age this is breaking news."

And I was right there, all ready to take that position too. Except I still haven't gotten over what they did to Bill Clinton.

Yes, that's how it works, and every guy over 15 knows it, so there is no way this man is going to convince me this was an accident!

Sorry, Charlie...

Hey, When I heard that it was a Senator, I prayed it was someone with an "R" following their name. They are all so high and mighty and it is time that they start tumbling.

BTW-Your kids are adorable..... Did they start school yesterday?

I went back yesterday and the kids come next week.

The point was never whether or not he was gay, the point was he was accused of behaving indecently in a public place.

If this had been consensual and private I wouldn't have any issue other than Mr. Craig's hypocrisy.

Sex in public is tedious at best.

Let's get back to the war shall we.

The Senator from MN is calling for him to resign. The question should be, if the Senator from MN comes on to a woman in public, other than his wife, is he behaving appropriately for a Senator????

The Senator.

In the men's room.

With a piece of paper.
