The Village Hypocrite

Well, color me amazed - another anti-gay hate-spouting Republican bigot gets nabbed, this time by the Minnesota vice squad.

There is a pattern here. We've seen it in Foley, in Ted Haggard, in Jimmy Swaggert, and now in Senator "Toe-Tappin' Craig. Apparently, when you're posturing yourself as a "family values" guy; but have ...umm... skeletons in the closet; far from keeping your mouth shut, your head down and avoiding the subject; you instead spew out venomous hate against that very skeleton.

So is it guilt? Do these phonies think they'll exorcise their demons if they denounce their secret often enough? Or is it Republican arrogance - spout off any old right-wing line of bullsh*t, and assume that everyone's a Dubya-IQ ditto-head and will just blindly believe the drivel?
