Ensign should have resigned with this issue came out. You can bet this will not be the last time the media will ambush him on this. This is baggage the Republicans do not need.

Why didn’t he return the favor and ask Sanchez about his DUI hit-and-run manslaughter?

The Dirty Sanchez...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_for_Radicals

In a separate chapter he suggests that the perennial question, “Does the end justify the means?” is meaningless as it stands: the real and only question regarding the ethics of means and ends is, and always has been, “Does this particular end justify this particular means?”

Alinsky continues by stating several rules of the ethics of means and ends:

* The judgment of the ethics of means is dependent upon the political position of those sitting in judgment.
* In war the end justifies almost any means.
* Judgment must be made in the context of the times in which the action occurred and not from any other chronological vantage point.
* Concern with ethics increases with the number of means available and vice versa.
* The less important the end to be desired, the more one can afford to engage in ethical evaluations of means.
* Generally, success or failure is a mighty determinant of ethics.
* The morality of a means depends upon whether the means is being employed at a time of imminent defeat or imminent victory.
* Any effective means is automatically judged by the opposition as being unethical.
* You do what you can with what you have and clothe it with moral garments.
* Goals must be phrased in general terms like “Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,” “Of the Common Welfare,” “Pursuit of Happiness,” or “Bread and Peace.”

Who cares. Either sex scandals apply to everyone or no one. Pravda media hitsquads can’t pick and choose. We have read the playbook.

I guess he’s not going to become John Lieutenant (JG) anytime soon.

Republicans need to resign and surrender everytime an interviewer asks a tough question or edits the tape to make them look stupid.

/sarcasm

That would be a good idea, I think to pull this one off though you'd need a very good prep team which can have all that information at his fingertips for handy reference.

Sanchez is as partisan as they come. Ensign is a dumbass for falling into this trap.

I can’t stand Sanchez - the DUI Murderer - but, Ensign only has himself to blame. What he did was scummy. Not only did he have an affair, but he betrayed a fairly long-time friendship in the process.

esp. with Sanchez he has been talking about him for awhile. Sanchez is so dramatic, like a drama queen. Oh and didnt he run over someone or something, lol. R’s are so stoopid I would have shot back something about his background.

Exactly. Rick Sanchez is a cancerous pimple, but Ensign was an idiot douchebag who crapped in his own food because he was too stupid to keep his wick dry. If the GOP had any brains at all they would relegate this dork to the back bench where he can do less harm in the future.

Although now that I ponder it some more, perhaps Ensign could have said something along the lines of this:

That's true. I was indeed doing something terribly wrong, but when I was indeed doing this wrong thing, I knew that no terrorists were trying to bomb our planes out of the sky because we had a president who kept us safe.
