		<description>Another off topic comment.

This bit is from the &quot;Top Ten Conservative Idiots&quot; section of democraticunderground.com.

&quot;What&#039;s the difference between bathroom-botherer Sen. Larry Craig and prostitute-humper Sen. David Vitter? Simple: prominent Republicans everywhere were quick to condemn Craig for his actions and call for his resignation, but when David Vitter recently apologized at a Republican Senate luncheon he apparently received a &quot;loud standing ovation.&quot; Believe it or not, Vitter is still Rudy Giuliani&#039;s Southern regional chairman.

This, despite another accusation last week by a woman who claims to have had a sexual relationship with Vitter in 1999. The woman alleges that Vitter visited her for sex &quot;two to three times a week ... between July and November 1999.&quot;

But of course there is one other major difference between Larry Craig and David Vitter: the governor of Idaho (Craig&#039;s state) is a Republican, and therefore would appoint a Republican to replace Craig if he resigned. However, the governor of Lousiana (Vitter&#039;s state) is a Democrat, so the GOP would lose another seat if he were to resign.

And so it&#039;s pitchforks-and-torches for Craig, and a standing ovation for Vitter. Nothing to see here - just Republican party politics as usual.&quot;

I thought this was a nice point that you might appreciate. The full list is at http://journals.democraticunderground.com/top10/306

On topic... well... if it wasn&#039;t for senses of humor the truth would be fully intolerable.</description>
