I called out your bias because it was unneeded here. You saying, "well what Weiner did isn't bad compared to what this one republican did ten years ago" is just dumb. I think this story can hold on it's own and doesn't need comparisons drawn between Spitzer or Vitter or Clinton or whatever politician. You shouldn't give the guy a pass because of his politics.

all the politicians only resign when they're going to be found guilty of ethics violations or when they are coming up for election soon. I can name a handful of GOP members who didn't resign just like I can name a handful of Dems who did, AND vice-versa.
My amusement usually comes because it's family values candidates that get caught with a rent boy at the airport.
