We should bombard the media and push for the resignation of
David Vitter. It cannot stand that he gets to hold his seat and Anthony does not. Notice that the democrats always have to try harder and be better than the republicans because we get pulverized if we step one step of the path but republicans get away with everything.

2. That is funny.
How would that be any different, it would be the same wrong.

You would be joining them, not standing against the use of smear, gossip, and the weakness of people in society liking to talk about sex but using disassociation by blaming it on what someone else did.

It would be no different done to Vitter as him. Would be the same wrong.

6. Two points, one, what Vitter did was illegal and what
Anthony did was not. Point two, by pressing for it it would bring to the public attention the hypocrisy of the media and how they hounded Anthony but didn't hound Vitter.

7. I understand the hypocricy point.

But that can be made without pushing for Vitter resignation, there is a difference there.

Do not become like them to fight them, is my view, others might think differently.

I am a Jedi, like my father before me!!!!!

3. You are so right & Vitter broke laws wherein Weiner did not.

5. The Dems Never have to allow themselves to be
politically bullied and blackmailed. They could in reality tell the bastards to Fuck Off!

It is they who Refuse to support our "mission statement" and the pubs love them for it. They are either in it with the pubs in a "good cop/bad cop" kinda way or we have elected the Wrong Dems.
I honestly don't understand Why, with all of the pressure we put on them that they don't respond to us.

8. I doubt that the media would consider that kind of bombardment to be "newsworthy"
It wouldn't get high ratings, so they'd never run it.
