Today's headlines

Here is the state of affairs, as told by today's headlines:

This, of course, is only a slim sampling.

There are Republican scandals that seem to be erupting regularly now. (The latest is the head of the college Republicans accused of giving a blow job to a sleeping guy. His defense was that it was mutual. It wouldn't matter if they weren't so holier than thou.)

There are Republican political dirty tricks, showing that their leaders lack both moral and ethical standards

You say, "But they all do it". Actually, no. They do not all do it. The current crop of conservatives set high records of low behavior. It is not because they are conservative. It is because they lack a moral and ethical compass, are intellectually dishonest, and suffer from hubris.
