Something I don't understand? Help? (GonzoGate)

[Singular73]

Ok, so the obvious trails of deceit are un-ending in the Bush administration.

There are acusations that are unparalleled, both in the past and present (I would start a list, but I don't have that kind of time).

Someone explain to me:

Why is it that THIS is the issue that Republicans decide to stand up for? That THIS is what crosses the line for them?

Lying us into war, no prob, caging, no prob, domestic spying, no prob, but OH NO, GONZO may have lied! OH NO! Throw him to the fishes!

My only assumption is:

1) Its much worse than we thought, Dems know it, therefore are latching on.

2) #1 can be proven.

The politics of it all don't make sense to me, unless there is something we don't know.

I mean for Gods sakes, they are still supporting, to a large degree, this idiocy in Iraq...what does Gonzo know?
