Over at the Chronicle, bitter republicans are lecturing us Democrats on corruption (Rep. Jefferson)
...and I just had to cut and paste a response from an astute reader whom I feel should be a DUer:

WoodyBombay wrote:
After they covered for a Rep who preyed on underage pages, shrugged off the likes of Duke Cunningham and Bob Ney, whining that poor, poor Tom DeLay is being railroaded, claiming they never heard of Jack Abramoff, outing a covert CIA agent who was helping determine whether Iran had nukes, and saying "So what?" to the White House's illegal politicizing of the Department of Justice (and all the lying, perjury and destroying of evidence that went along with it), it's nice to the Republicans FINALLY concerned about ethics and corruption.

It's also utterly laughable, of course. Getting lectured by Republicans on corruption is like getting lectured on marital fidelity by Bill Clinton.


:rofl:
