Why is it?

That Larry Craig can be accused of inappropriate behavior and be labeled as a 'sexual deviant' by the MSM, yet people like Barney Frank are 'brave homosexuals'?

Your guess is as good as mine...i guess cuz this country has made it "ok to be gay"...another sign of the decline of western civilization.

gay ppl are given alot more liberty in what they can say and do in north america, cause if anyone trys to stop them then they just cry discrimination.

I think because republicans have chosen to say that they (repubs) are the party of morals and values and the democratic party is against family values. We painted ourselves into this corner. I think conservatives have picked this battle and now we must deal with what comes along. We can't rale against the homosexual agenda and then expect people to understand when one of our "leaders" is found to be gay or have homosexual tendencies or is just looking for a bj or whatever. Most people on "our side" have decided that homosexuality is a learned behavior not genetic. If indeed that is the case then we can't expect mercy when someone on the Repub/conservative side is found to have those tendencies.

Simple...different political affiliations.

That is the best explanation...but I find it ironic that Larry Craig has a problem being judged by the same moral platform that he and other Republicans ran on to begin with to get elected in the first place. If you live by the sword, you will die by it too...and after Larry Craig has made a living by condemning the same behavior he is being ridiculed for now...he should just fall on his sword as far as his career in politics goes.

If the Republicans are soooo moral then explain the Log Cabin Republicans? They're just booting Craig because they're afraid he'll make them stumble in the elections. Not much difference between the parties IMO. Republicans just play the game to sway a voting bloc and they fall for it and then get slapped in the mouth after election time.

Has anyone checked the info that has been forced out about special interest funding? Most are just alike. It is the dollar. The oddballs attach themselves to one group, the straight to another. "I'm against abortion, but I'm also against funding the poor kids education. Then they just have more poor kids." "I'm also against the funding for feeding the unwanted babies." It would be more kind to kill them young than let them live on the streets. Let them grow up to compete with a country that pays a buck and a half a day? Where did the morals go that got them out of the womb? Oh yeah, they are in the political restroom, trying to get them to work for tips. The vote needs to come back to the people, and away from the 500 that are bought and paid for. The country runs better when it is just sealed off and left alone. The energy crisis would have been over if we didn't import oil, we would have had to fix it.
