Sen. Ensign's Resignation Seems a Bit Late

Whenever I think of Sen. Ensign or Louisiana Sen. Vitter, I marvel at how these "family values" types survive politically.  I suppose straight adultery (prostitute diddling for Vitter), coupled with shady payoffs, and possibly violating the lobbying law, are not things that get you to think "I should just resign now."  Now, Sen. Craig made the mistake of taking that "wide stance" in the men's room.  Maybe he could have survived politically, if he'd slipped into the ladies' room instead.  Regardless, I was glad to hear of Ensign's resignation.  Though, Sharon Angle might find her crazy self in the U.S. Senate after all.

These cats have nerve, you have to say that. Standing on morality while sleeping with concubines, and not having the common decency to resign when caught.

Ahhhh, the spawn of the Moral Majority come forth to gift us with fresh hypocrisy and the deft ability to not take ownership for their actions in spite of overwhelming evidence that they embody everything they claim to be against.

I'm just sayin'...
