"People could have been victimized while they waited, but they didn't care."

Absolute total nonsense! Whatever the Democrats knew the Republicans knew it before them. I totally reject conservatives choosing this line of moral reasoning in order to avoid responsibility. If the behavior is unacceptable in Democrats, it is doubly unacceptable for conservatives. This is not a time to go wobbly on values.

Whatever the Democrats knew the Republicans knew it before them.

Incorrect.

The evidence given in this article shows that the information which proved wrongdoing was new to the GOP.

If the GOP actually knew that he was committing crimes months ago, they should have turned him in to prosecutors the second they had the evidence.

But the hard evidence seems to have been held only by CREW and ABC and revealed to the GOP only days ago.
