Vitter came under a lot of criticism by conservatives, but he survived because he did not violate federal law. Spitzer violated at least one and perhaps one more.
How do you figure he didn't violate federal law? I thought it was because the statute of limitation ran out on Vitter. I'm thinking that buying sex is buying sex. Both are models of hypocracity. Vitter demanding that Clinton resign because he had "no moral authority to be president of the United States" and Spitzer because he prosecuted others. But, republicans didn't by and large didn't want Vitter to resign because a democratic governor would appoint a democrat. Where's their principles?? Aren't the moral majority (who Vitter cowtowed to) were big on principle. All hypocrites
Spitzer ordered up a New York call girl, put her on the shuttle to DC to have a wild weekend in his hotel room. he crossed state lines. Violation of the Mann Act.
That clears that up, thanks Red. Both of these guys are hypocrites. But to me anyway, the religous right is the ones who look the worse to me. Liberals tend to be more tolerant anyway, but when you sit in judgement of others, you'd better walk the walk.
