So we agree that the main stream media are masters of `special pleading', e.g. NOW and Boy Clinton.
Recall that Bob Packwood was considered a `moderate' conservative, or a "good, acceptable (or at least not evil) Republican" until they got tired of him and excoriated him for playing `tonsil-hockey', I believe, with unwilling female aides. But he did that for years.
Again the issue isn't or shouldn't be a divisive one for us, specific cases like Packwood or Lott; the issue remains, the MSM uses a double-standard when reporting on conservatives and liberals and that standard is dictated by liberal folkways and mores.

I agree. Imagine if Biden's anti-white rhetoric was anti-black rhetoric by a Republican senator... all hell would break loose. Bennett was lynched for a true comment that wasn't even racist, because he is a conservative. And then allowing Biden to get away with something much, much, much worse. Insane.
