Double-Standard AND A Hypocrite

RawStory has this up

Nevada Republican Senator John Ensign, considered a possible contender for the GOP’s presidential ticket in 2012, has confessed to an extramarital affair.

I may not think the Dem senator from Nevada, Majority Leader Harry Reid,  is a strong leader, but he’s faithful to his wife.

Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) said at the time that Ensign’s criticism exhibited a clear double standard.

“I don’t think they’ll ask [Vitter] to resign because, of course, he’d be replaced by a Democrat,” he added. “It’s easier to ask Larry Craig to resign because he’d be replaced by a Republican.”

Sen. Ensign has not resigned.

Of course the douche-bag won’t resign.  He’ll be like Vitter and drag his wife to the presser to show how they’ve gotten past this little affair.
