Leahy will get a pass in the drive by media.
Of course he will. Which is exactly why the GOP needs to make everyone aware of this at every opportunity. The only question is will they? I don't know about you, but I won't be holding my breath waiting for any GOP politician to smack Leahy and the rats in the face with this.
Therein lies a major problem with the republican party; their seeming unwillingness to fight fire with fire where the rats are concerned.
