Michael McManus, conservative author of the syndicated column "Ethics & Religion," caught with his hand in the Bush till

That's like William Bennett -- that bastion of morality, that paragon of virtue -- who was discovered to be a high-stakes gambler.

These ethics and virtue guys aren't doing very well. They preach ethics & virtue & morality, but don't follow it in their own lives.

I think you've merged some apples and oranges; do they mix well for you that way, or are you simply looking for 'ins' to land some cheap shots at Bennett?

Take a vacation, here why don't ya - THESE GUYS JUST LOVE TO HATE CONSERVATIVES TOO!

BTW, we won't ask about YOUR 'ethically led' life either.

Ummm....Last time I checked gambling wasn't illegal, or immoral.

Gambling, in my view, becomes immoral when one ruins their family's financial situation.

Mr. Bennett did not squander his fortune and put his family into ruin. They're doing just fine, thank you.
