The facts are that the "mainstream" media (NYT ABC CBS NBC Etc. Etc.) ignored this senators anti-gay stance at the time it was reported he'd solicited sex from another male in a public bathroom. It can hardly be called an abuse of power when the media delves into the sex lives of public sevants - though I agree it's not the "right" thing to do!

I agree that the "Media" treated Bill Clinton, Senator Craig and others unfairly. The "Media" react to each other as you well know. As regards abuse of power, you will recall that republican leaders' reason for wanting an investigation was due to their outrage that this idiot whipped out proof that he was a united states senator and attempted to threaten a police officer with a "What do you think about that?"

Hyocracy is not in question when it comes to this particularly immoral idiot - it's about his history of life destroying decisions regarding gay Americans. No marriage is not one of them. This sickening and self loathing gay man actually opposed federal hate crimes law to cover offenses motivated by anti-gay bias. He voted against a bill to outlaw employment discrimination based on sexual orientation!!! That is more in the realm of evil than anything remotely related to mere hypocrisy. Not to mention "bizarre"
