		<description>BSR,
We get your point,yes Democrates and Republican should be called on the carpet for unethical behavior.
But what the public is seeing is corruption at a massive level by Republicans.
Democrates have never been the party of business,that been the Republicans cause.(The RNC is a .com and the DNC is a .org if you havent noticed)
You can try to drag your argument about Democrate corruption into a forum about Republican corruption but its seems to me that you just refuse to give up on the Republican Party and you refuse to accept the fact that you are in a party designed to screw the little guy and fatten the rich.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s hypocrisy when Rick condemn Boston because of the action of priets in Boston.  However, he didn&#039;t say a word about Philadelphia after the big priets molestation scandal hit the Philadelphia Inquirer.  Funny thing, the States that are so worried about homosexuality destroying marriage are the States that have the highest heterosexual divorce rate.  Go figure - humm, no connection between homosexuality and divorce rates.  It&#039;s more like a connection between heterosexulaity and divorce rates.  The very MORAL CHRISTIAN states that support Bush have the highest divorce rates.</description>

		<description>Time for some Rick Santorum quotes:

&quot;And if the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything.&quot;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2003/04/22/national1737EDT0668.DTL&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Sen. Rick Santorum&#039;s comments on homosexuality in an AP interview&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

&quot;The idea is that the state doesn&#039;t have rights to limit individuals&#039; wants and passions. I disagree with that. I think we absolutely have rights because there are consequences to letting people live out whatever wants or passions they desire.&quot;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2003/04/22/national1737EDT0668.DTL&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Sen. Rick Santorum&#039;s comments on homosexuality in an AP interview&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

&quot;I would argue that the future of our country hangs in the balance because the future of marriage hangs in the balance. (...) Isn&#039;t that the ultimate homeland security, standing up and defending marriage?&quot;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/07/15/politics/main629772.shtml&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Same-Sex Ban Falls Short In Senate&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

&quot;Priests, like all of us, are affected by culture. When the culture is sick, every element in it becomes infected. While it is no excuse for this scandal, it is no surprise that Boston, a seat of academic, political and cultural liberalism in America, lies at the center of the storm.&quot;

		<description>Santorum has always gotten himself into goofy shenanigans! A while back he claimed that homosexuality leads to bestiality with animals, which is completely nutty idea!

He claims to be a devout born-again Christian, but he is very close-minded! Supposedly he brought his stillborn child home, for his other kids to see, before burial?

He is a very wishy-washy guy to be put in a position to clean-up lobbying problems in Washington, DC! I do not believe that he is honest enough to remain in the Senate!</description>

		<description>I agree with NR as far as this comment goes. Republicans have to hold their leadersâ€™ feet to the fire, and they are. But the needed reforms will have to be bipartisan to be effective. Thatâ€™s why the liberal grassroots have a vital role to play in the reform process. Hold your own leadersâ€™ feet to the fire also, or hold your tongue altogether!

Fool State inb&#039;Red,

You won!

What happened to that?

&quot;We won&quot;

Remember that?

Now, get over it. Your party&#039;s in power.  Your party&#039;s corrupt, and treasonous...

Don&#039;t try to paint us Dems with your DIRTY BRUSH!

Be the PROUD, SUPERIOR, and MORAL party you are!</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;TP should devote equal time and energy to ALL the corruption issues out there, not just those involving Republicans. 
Comment by Blue State Red â€” January 17, 2006 @ 7:14 pm &lt;/i&gt;

But since -as you have kindly reminded us, over and over again, using the cute nickname &quot;fever swamp Left&quot; when talking about Think Progress- Republicans control the White House, the Senate, and the House, it stands to reason that most of the criticism would be directed towards Republicans. 

Devoting equal time would be disingenuous, misleading, and irresponsible, as RightPunch rightly pointed out.</description>

Comment by Blue State Red 


When I see wrong doing by a  democrat, I  will gladly  hold his feet to a fire.Ihate corrupt  pols, whether  dem or  republican. If they violate the law, ther need kicked out of office and  escorted to the  nearest jail cell for violation  of the public trust. 

 Untill then  , I  will not hold my  tongue, what you are  asking is infringing  on other&#039;s  first amendment right.
Quit trying to defend you  crooked republicans, frankly  Iamastounded that you would defend  their blantant  breaking of the  law and their lies.

Hold my  tomgue? Hell no.</description>

		<description>&quot;My only request - and it was directed to Judd - is that TP should devote equal time and energy to ALL the corruption issues out there, not just those involving Republicans. Otherwise, Judd will wake up one day to find a large number of skunks still residing in the Democratic woodpile. Blue State Red&quot;

Equal time implies that there&#039;s equal corruption - which is not the case.  What you want is unequal emphasis to distract from the rampant republican corruption.  That would be irresponsible - something you don&#039;t have a problem with?  Clearly not, too bad.</description>

		<description>Oops - looks like the paid neocon Bushcos are here again spreading disinformation.  What&#039;s the matter - can&#039;t you have an intelligent chat with your neocon conservatives on your right wing blogs?</description>

		<description>LOL - Keep opening your mouth, intelligent design Ricky.  With every word you speak you lose one more vote in PA.  Enjoy your last 11 1/2 months in the Senate Ricky because you won&#039;t be returning in January.  Asking Rick Santorum to defend the K Street Gang is like asking a fox to guard the hen house.  Oh, sure, the fox says, &quot;the chickens are safe with me&quot;.</description>

Since when are you so concerned for the well-being of the &quot;fever swamp Left&quot; -as you have repeatedly called us?</description>
