Demublicans or Republocrats?

Once again the hypocrisy of Republicans is revealed. Idaho Senator Larry Craig pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct in an airport men's room, the undercover cop who witnessed the scene described Craig's actions as solicitation of sex. Craig is now backpedaling and saying the he only pleaded guilty because he wanted the whole thing to go away, the Boise newspaper Boise Statesman was conducting an investigation into Craig's "sexual orientation", for the past eight months.
Several Republican senators have called for Craig’s resignation and I agree…call the newspapers I agree with John McCain! If any Democrat was caught in such an act (not that he would be, the Democrats have experience avoiding detection, and if they are can always bribe the witnesses) I would expect nothing less, which definitely means that Senator Craig shouldn't get off the hook.
I’m beginning to think that the Republican Party needs to start over from the ground up; too many Republicans are indeterminable from Democrats except that when Republicans are caught it makes headlines, Democrats tend to have their stories buried on page 12 right next to Soap Opera reviews. Republicans are becoming more and more like Democrats, which is why they lost the 2006 elections, voters couldn’t tell the difference except that the Democrats ostensibly were more conservative. Republicans spend taxpayers’ money like Democrats-take bribes like Democrats-are as corrupt and immoral as Democrats-in my book it’s starting to become a no-party nation.
President Bush’s best response to this could be borrowed from Warren Harding, “I have no trouble with my enemies. I can take care of my enemies in a fight. But my d--n friends, they’re the ones who keep me walking the floor nights.”
