Family Values

This is just too precious. Republican congressman from Staten Island Vito Fossella, in fallout from a DUI incident, was found to have been keeping a second family in Virginia. In addition to having a wife and three children, he has a mistress and a "secret love-child." (Can't a child of an above-board relationship be a love-child too, I have to wonder?) What was our first clue? Well, his mistress, Laura Fay, showed up to bail him out, when he was arrested for DUI while on his was to visit the 3-year-old love child.

Just because I can't NOT say it...now we know what they mean by "Family Values." It's like a two-for-one special. Who knew? Or buy three kids, get one free-love child.

My conservative friends assure me that a key difference between Democrats and Republicans is that, when they are caught doing something wrong, the Republicans know enough to resign in disgrace. Not so this time, and minority leader Boehner seems to be giving up on trying to get this guy to do the right thing. He's starting to make Spitzer look good, by those conservative standards!
