Gee, nice of Duvall to spare his wife and two children. I'm so reassured because he's already on the road to rehabilitation. I'm also reassured by the nice story that it's just fanciful talk, and we should get off the notion that he actually did that stuff. The difference between refuse like Duvall/Sanford/etc/etc/etc Republicans and the others who succumb to their animal urges is their... HYPOCRISY. Get it? They sell this snake oil to the sniveling, voting marks, brag about the way they've procured their office through pathological lying, and laugh all the way to the bank. You did get one thing right: It's all about getting caught. Maybe you got one more thing right: They are indeed like weeds. One more will grow right back again. Nice thought that luck might intervene to change the status quo, but I wouldn't count on that to alter the party DNA.
One parting thought: What about the guy practically slobbering all over himself that Duvall was talking to? What was his name? Ah, yes Jeff Miller. Now there's another guy who deserves the family values Republican vote, wouldn't you say? Do you ever wonder how much time these sludge buckets spend thinking about how to change our current dysfunctional status quo so that the government finally does something resembling responsible leadership? Is it any surprise that California is rotting from the inside out under the thumb of these ersatz leaders, who don't give a hoot while they brag about what's really important?
