Family Values: Swinging and Soliciting


Well, more evidence that "values voters" were the proverbial suckers born that particular minute...let's see--

Repub operative Tim Droogsma gets picked up in a prostitution sting, claims it's all just a misunderstanding...well, I suppose I'll give him a few points for knowing how to lie with a modicum of discretion, unlike fellow Repug Bob Allen, who's getting more bizarre with every excuse.

Meanwhile, not necessarily related to their swingers lifestyle--and I wonder if the family values types think swinging is a matter of choice or genetics--but certainly indicative of just being a plain old dick, Roger Simon's back in the news, having made some threatening phone calls to New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer's father. TalkingPointsMemo's been covering, no pun intended, the details.

Simon's decided to go with the Bob Allen-style excuse, claiming his house must have been broken into and his voice somehow duplicated.

Any takers on how long it'll be before he blames space aliens?

You know, if they'd just do their thing, sexually speaking, I wouldn't give a half a damn. But I guess claiming Rethuglican status must be their way of trying to elude Johnny Law and keep clear of the pokey.

And again, as I've noted, old Diaper Dave in comparison is a case study in modesty, restraint (no pun intended here either), and decorum when it comes to his own affairs...which is probably one reason why he's not politically dead yet.
