It is the same world-wide with the left - just look at Britain.

Yes the Conservative Party had it share of scandals when in power but a least the minister resigned at the first whiff not waited until the press because so rabid that they could not stay any longer. The press in the case of the Conservative scandals were then running the stories after the resignation.

Our Labour government ministers hang on as long as they can and then some even survive such as the education secretary found wanting after sex offenders are found to be working in some of our schools.

The same thing happens here. Conservatives resign and liberals stay as long as they can, hoping to MoveOn.

Thank you for your stand for conservative principles over there and being a friend to the U.S.

One day, more British will wish they had been our friends.

Off topic: One of my adopted U.S. soldiers was assigned to Basra to work with British troops towards the end of his deployment.

He is back in the states and says his next assignment is to UK. I think he has really taken to your culture. I wonder will he run into Harry? LOL.
