I was just talking about this yesterday. Conservatives have moral standards and are trashed if their behavior does not PERFECTLY match those standards. Liberals often do not have any moral standards and therefore are allowed to live a wreckless imoral life.

Barney Frank can have a prostitution ring in his basement - no big deal. Larry King can get divorced 10 times and they laugh. Bill Clinton is revered because he treated imorality as a gift. William Jefferson can take a bribe without consequences because he comes from a poor background in the South. Sandy Burger can steal national secrets and just get a slap on the wrist because he was helping Bill Clinton.

However, for a conservative, if you commit one sin in your entire life, your political and public life is OVER. Slight exaggeration, but not far off.

Ok, here is the punch line. Why does this happen? These radical liberals who cry hypocracy do not believe in the forgiveness of sin through the blood of Jesus. Therefore, if someone has moral standards and fails, there is no awareness or idea by the radical liberal that forgiveness is available. If someone has no moral standards, then there is no hypocracy, and that person gets a free ticket from the MSM.

It is the news media that has no moral standards, and we should call them on that fact every chance we get. Mark Rich gets a pardon for trading with the Iranians, and Scooter gets prison time for a bad memory. I think a new prosecutor should indict the reporters, who published the national secrets, Plame’s job, and other national secrets about the WOT and then keep the media off balance, fearing for their own jobs, and reporting the trials.
