Hey conservatives, I've got your family values right here.
While Bush had the Girls Gone Wild twins, and suggestions that he was having an affair with Condoleeza Rice, you were running around as a party suggesting that Republicans had the high road on morality.
This while Mark Foley was trying to sleep with teenage boys. While David Vitter was frequenting hookers. While Vito Fossella from Long Island had two families. While Larry Craig was slumming for a blow job in an airport bathroom.
And for sure the Dems have Clinton, Edwards, McGreevey, et al, but the Democratic Party isn't advertising itself as somehow morally superior to anyone else.
And most recently, of course, Nevada's John Ensign not only was having an affair with a staffer, he was paying off her, her husband, and their son while publicly calling on Craig to resign at the same time for cheating on his wife.
Hypocrisy.
But enough of this filthiness.
Today we have a president who loves his wife and loves his children. A man who speaks out on the values of good parenting - on being a good father.
This comes to mind for me as CBS's Sunday Morning gave an interview with the President on the subject of fatherhood. If they ever link the video I'll pass it along. Good stuff.
And now, time to go chase after Gabriel this morning. Happy Father's Day!
