I have defended the man to the hilt from a lot of people that aren’t Conservatives, and there was a contingent of RINOs on FR that would often bash him on policy. I stated again that I did not like, indeed, I abhorred, a rush to judgment on this before we knew the facts. It was a lynch mob mentality, and I won’t apologize for that. You want to call him names and bash him NOW over his admittance of guilt, that’s up to you. I wanted the man to be able to answer the allegations before passing judgment. If you think that is somehow wrong or misguided, what can I say ? I thought being a Conservative means giving a person the benefit of the doubt until such time as we know the facts, especially someone who has done much for our cause.

If you wanted to defend the man, that's your choice. I have no problem with that. What I have a problem with is the way you've treated fellow freepers, me included, under the guise of defending him.

Too bad it turned out this way. Now the MSM won't have to make something out of nothing. It is his private life as far as I am concerned. It wasn't clinton’s sex life that I held against him and I am not holding Sanfords sex life against him, I would if I was his wife, but I'm not his wife. A democrat could come back from this but a Republican, NEVER!
