Ben Stein Says Craig Was Lynched Twice (click here to read). I'm pretty sick of hearing the news reports about this doofus from Idaho, but I have to agree with old Ben Stein on this one -- if the thought police can bust someone for thinking about sex, what's next for god's sake?? Shame on everyone involved.

The GOP is rife with sex scandals. It's crazy. A couple of weeks before the Craig story, there was the thing with Glenn Murphy, chair of the Young Republicans National Federation. And the then there was David Vidder and Mark Foley. My theory? This is karma's payback for the stink that the republicans stirred up over the Clinton/Lewinsky thing.

If we could get the government out of the business of legislating morality and running people's sex lives, get religion & church out of the government and get some COMMON SENSE back into our politicians, we'd be all be better off.

Exodus
Karl Rove is gone. Alberto Gonzales and Tony Snow are on their way out. They're like rats on sinking ship.

I wonder if Karl Rove is trying to put some distance between him and the Bush administration so he can hitch his wagon to some other Republican’s campaign (my money would be on Fred Thompson).

It seems Alberto Gonzales picked an odd time to resign. After all the ruckus, I wonder why he finally caved now. I suspect it was because Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert were both on vacation and he wanted to deprive them of the opportunity to poke fun at him.

I suspect that Tony Snow's illness is taking its toll on him. Perhaps he's decided that he doesn’t want his last words to be some bogus Bush rhetoric.

Is the GOP going to implode? One can only hope.
