[StBernard] Jindal says Craig should resign but not Vitter?

Only because he was not charged.  Isn't solicitation of a prostitute a crime
in DC or Virginia?  That's why they have under-cover operations with female
cops posing as prostitutes so they can arrest the "Johns".

Actually I consider them both equally hypocrites, neither practicing what
they preach to everyone else.

Also John, don't forget the political side of this:  In Idaho, Craig can
resign and an interim Senator (Republican) can be appointed by the
Republican governor.  Do you **really** think the Republican National party
would have called for Vitter to resign only to see a Democrat interim
Senator appointed by Blanco serve out the rest of Vitter's term?  I don't
think so.

	There's a big difference here. Senator Craig legally plead guilty to
an
	offense, Vitter has not. Also, growing up Catholic I learned there
are in
	fact different levels of sins. A marital affair, or prostitute
affair for
	that matter, doesn't strike a nerve as that involving homosexual
activity.
	You can argue that and try to paint it anyway you won't, but the
fact
	remains that one wrongful act can indeed be far worse than another -
maybe
	that's why different crimes have different length jail sentences?
	
	Or to put it bluntly as only a wife (mine) can put it in proper
	perspective..."if you're caught with another woman, I'll be mad as
hell at
	you but I can eventually forgive you for that. But if you're caught
with
	another man, I'll despise you and never want to look at your face
again."
	
	Folks, I think that just about sums it up why Jindal can call for
Craig's
	resignation and not Vitter's.
