I’m beginning to think that we need to send some really beautiful guys to sound out every candidate, to see if he has Craig syndrome BEFORE he gets elected.
Well, Vitter is heterosexual and has created his own mess. Don’t know I’d limit this to homsexuality or even sex for that matter. Stevens is under investigation back in Alaska over all that pork he’s been bringing home.
What we need is to establish an ethics commission on our own aisle with real teeth. Clear unambiguous guidelines that if crossed should result in your immediate resignation. We vigorously and continuously run checks on our own and if caught, we expose them. Not talking about a Federal commission here either, but grassroots led.
I’m convinced these ethical lapses are why they vote the way they do usually. These things don’t go unnnoticed in D.C. and are used to control them on votes that typically end up screwing us. No pun intent here.
