You keep ignoring everybody else's point to fixate on your own "point".
We can CHERRY-PICK cases all day.
You naming ONLY cases involving "liberals".
Others naming ONLY cases involving "conservatives".
The more honest and objective approach would be to analyze ALL of the issues.
One of the more amusing things I read about the year "2000" scandals is a claim that there were more "Republican" scandals because people don't approach the group NOT in power in order to commit a "good" crime.
Republicans don't own a corner market on "morals".
The fact that you have repeatedly IGNORED people pointing out corruption in your own party (and associates) helps underline exactly how PARTISANSHIP can help people to ignore the bigger picture.

Shouldn't I be saying that to you?

Nowhere have I excused criminal conduct. NOWHERE.
What I HAVE done is try to stop false blame where none belongs.
I feel like I should take a mirror approach and start up a new thread on Republican pedophiles. And then when you try to perform some tricks to ignore the issue, or you refuse to even broach it, I should then accuse you of something similar...
But I think the bigger picture lesson would be lost on you...
YOU are trying to negatively attack DEMOCRATS for what is, in reality, a CASUAL relationship.
NOT a causal one.

I'm sorry, but again, why do you think you own this message board?
Repeatedly, you ignore the points of others to insist that they HAVE to talk about what you want to talk about.
Here, you IGNORE the detraction of others to complain that people aren't fixating on your myopic view of "let's look at only the democrat problems and declare a specifically negative democrat conclusion based on my myopia".
If you can't handle the detraction, maybe you should consider blogging.
Otherwise, I'm going to continue to point out the holes in your claims.
I'm going to continue to point out WHY your claims are ridiculously flawed.

They are intensely aware of problems, other than their own. Where is the cry from the left for integrity within their own party?? Why isn't the left demanding an explanation for maintaining of criminal connections among thier leadership?

A while back, Tom DeLay should have stepped down BECAUSE OF the Republican's OWN RULES.
But for a ridiculously long time, he ignored those rules. Little to nothing was done...
George Bush stated he was going to get to the bottom of the Plame affair, and that the people under him were going to cooperate. But then when one of his own was found to be OBSTRUCTING JUSTICE, people on the right cheered as Bush pardoned "Scooter".
Your categorizations are as convenient for you as they are lacking in REAL substantiation.
