Exactly. But still, I have to wonder here about an alarming trend. Nobody can tell me that the dems aren't up to their eye balls in corruption, yet they are on the offense with corruption charges levelled at Republicans. Yes, Cunningham deserves to go down hard for this violation of public trust, BUT so does every congressperson who has violated that trust.
From a political standpoint, the dems,who are every bit as guilty, if not more, of acts that violate the public trust are getting away with hurling boulders while living in a glass house. The Republicans had better figure out a way to start to take out some pretty big dem names and fast or else 2006 will be a slaughter.
"He was honest about it when he got caught,.."

I can appreciate the distinction he is making.
Take for example, when Bill Clinton was caught with audio tapes proving beyond a doubt that he had witness tampered, obstructed justice, and lied while pounding his fist at us.
Some people are honest
Some are honest, but make mistakes
Some are dishonest and don't get caught
Some are dishonest, get caught, and deny
I think this guys is somewhere in the middle. I am glad he is out and think he has shamed the party. But then again, there are others like McCain, Specter, etc who continue to shame the party in their own ways.
