Hypocrisy, noun, see 'Republican'

Following Sen. Larry Craig's (Republican-Fascist-Hypocrite-ID) admission that he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of lewd conduct after being arrested for soliciting sexual encounters in a mens restroom in Minnesota;

Following Mark Foley's solicitation of 16-year-old male pages while representing Florida in the U.S. House of Representatives;

Following Bush darling Ted Haggard's fall from grace after smoking crack and "getting massages" from a male hooker;

Following ANOTHER male hooker's (Jeff Gannon) unparalleled access to the White House Press Room via arrangements made by Karl Rove...

Shouldn't the Republican Party and their right-wing Fascist supporters really just shut the fuck up about gay and lesbian issues? I'm all for free speech and open debate, but Craig, Foley, Haggard, and Gannon (and others like them) have drained every last iota of credibility from the Republican side of the debate (which was already lacking to begin with).

(Special thanks to Scott for this story's shout out yesterday.)
