Nancy Pelosi and her pack of flying monkeys

Former Rep. Gerry Studds passed away recently without too much fanfare anywhere except Massachusetts. This gentleman was given a congressional hand slap when he was censured for sexual relationship with an underage male page in 1983. Not only did Mr Studds(such a wonderful porn name if I say so myself) not get brought up on statutory rape, sexual assault, or a host of other felonious acts that applied, he did not resign, get fired, leave after term, NOTHING. He barely received a hand slap for his indiscretions. In fact, the wonderful voters of the state of Massachusetts returned him to office for six more terms, nearly 20 years. What makes this story even better is that when given the opportunity to show leadership and ethical fortitude, Nancy Pelosi chose to offer a handslap to Mr Studds. She voted on no fewer that 3 occasions to give him the handslap ONLY. This is the same person that is calling for the heads of anyone(as long as it is a republican) who knew of Mark Foley's past. She wants leadership in the House, Senate, etc to come down hard on those that knew that he had a problem, yet did not come forward. Well please tell me how an inappropriate Instant Message to an underage male page is worse than an actual SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP with an underage page? Except that one is a FELONY!!! Once again Pelosi proves that she believes what ever the conservatives do or say is wrong and that their actions are satanic and their words are as shallow as a West Virginia Gene Pool. Rep. Studds' actions should have led to much more outrage and the calling for heads of the democratic leaders as well. This never happened. Why? Because it was a democrat and not a republican. This partisan politics is about as senseless and unproductive as it gets. One side says its raining and the other claims the sun is out. No one seems to be able to take anything done by the other side and give an ounce of credit if it is due. Are you telling me that G. W. Bush has done NOTHING in the past 6 years correct(or Clinton the 8 years before that)? I know some of his choices have not turned out to be the best but for Christ's sake, he has done numerous good things that will never be admitted by detractors. Why again do we elect these people?
