I wonder how much he would have raised by now had he been a Gop presidential candidate.

Inches or money?

Money (Cain) or standings (Gingrich). It seems sex scandals do wonders for Gop candidates, and the more perverse the better from the party of Family Values. Too bad Sandusky wasn't a Gop candidate when the news broke, besides building up a nice treasure chest of funds for his defense he'd be enjoying the backing of FOX, Rush and the rest of the conservative media. The one thing they do well is deny. I'm not saying Jerry is guilty, all I am saying is he'd have a better chance of being shielded from the hysteria.

I think the Kennedy's and Clinton did pretty well, don't you?

But the point is that the Gop claims to be the pristine party concerning sex. The funny thing about it all is the fact that they are unabashed about the hypocrisy while their followers just keep dancing to the music. The Gop insult their faithful members terribly in the face.

You have sources for these claims?

Well?

What parts are you disputing? For general claims there's no need to look any further than the behavior and gullibility of the faithful. Are you one?

YOU said you had sources for your claims. Now you are hedging around like a typical liberal. Next, you'll tell us you are not a liberal, that you are some combination of something else, since no one wants to admit to being a stinkin liberal anymore.

But to your question, do the Repubs still claim family values? I haven't heard that term used in ages, and Santorum isn't polling very well.

They'll start with the family values thing as soon as the general election campaign begins probably. But if the nominee is going to be Newt or Cain, that will be one tuff road to ho.

Speaking of Santorum, I never really noticed before how much he talks through his teeth ala Clint Eastwood. I wonder if it's intentional.

Family values is going to stay on the shelf this time. You have a first-marriage faithful father of two young'uns for competition. It would be like Michael Moore saying he supports a healthy lifestyle more than the local aerobics instructor. Actually, if Newt gets the nomination, it'll look like Michael Moore saying he supports a healthy lifestyle more than the local aerobics instructor.

I might be gritting my teeth like that, too, if I was dissed as badly as he has been this campaign. I'm sure he figures it's his turn, dangit!

And I thought this thread was about the Penn State scandal...........my husband, an alumni, is still shaking his head over the shame of it all.

I was a bit wary about the title as it were and was ready to take it down had I been asked to by management.

Innocent till proven guilty which I believe her will be proven guilty. This creep should be behind bars. He has admitted to taking shower with 10 year old boys and horsing around makes me cringe, he is a sick pervert.

Is there a 15 year statute of limitations? The allegations only go back 15 years. Seems an unlike hobby to have picked up at the age of 52.
