Sen, John Ensign is just another of the dirty monkeys in the Washington Circus where charlatans masquerade as statesmen and clowns dress up as legislators. Free no log-in editorial cartoons on the whole circus at http://www.saintpeterii.com

So how does that family values thing work again? Or perhaps the question is, to whom is it applied?

When the Republicans do something illegal or immoral they merely say they have gotten forgiveness from (their right-wing, conservative, Christian) God and the slate is automatically wiped clean. Democrats aren't offered this "Get out of Jail Free" card: they remain "bad" people.

This man sullies all of us with his continued 'service' to the people of the United States of America.

Scumballs love the company of scumballs.

Because they rationalize it as good people doing bad things and can therefore be forgiven in some public Christian charade. When Democrats do it, the Right thinks it's because they're bad people.

Just a clear case of misunderstanding what is meant by a "big tent party" sen Ensign thought is was " Big Party in my tent"

And one other thing - I hate the phrase "in it to win it". Of course you are. Nobody has ever said that they're "in it to place a solid third".

Dear HuffPo -

I'm glad the article is about this guy. On the main page, you had placed the words "sex scandal" underneath a picture of Murkowski, and that made me throw up in my mouth a little. Please be more careful in the future. Thank you.

Let's see, Willie gets impeached in the House for lying about a BJ. Senator Ensign readilly admits banging his campaign aide and trying to find work for her husband. Ethics committee do your job....

He's a member of the 'C' street chosen. His affairs are mark of his chosen-ness.
