Remember when Arlen Specter told Michele Bachmann to act like a lady on the radio.

Good times.

Yep. And were is ol’ Arlen nowdays?

But Arlen Specter was a democrat. Only Republicans are held to any standard. In a case where a Republican doesn't make verbal gaffes the media will simply make something up or characterize a normal statement as being a gaffe.

In this case Akin didn't say anything at all worth condemnation but you even have Republicans hopping to the Democrat tune of gaffe making.
