Rep. Talking Points: D.C. Madam Scandal

Get ready for them because they're going to come hard and heavy and they're are going to start coming RIGHT NOW. What will they say:

Talking Point: "You're the ones who say prostitution should be legal! Guess you're not so liberal after all. HYPOCRITES!" 


Response: Completely beside the point. Any member of today's Republican "Morality Police" Party should be dragged into the street with their pants around their ankles if they're caught with a prostitute. Legally or illegally.

Talking Point: "It's the Liberals fault, because they say prostitution should be legal. They've decayed our values and it's even affecting good people (Republicans)."

Response: Shut up, idiot. (What else can you say to such lunacy?)

Talking Point: "I guess your precious "right to privacy" isn't for Republicans, huh? HYPROCRITES!"

Response: Are you saying that buying a prostitute should be protected as a private act? It should be legal? If not, then you can't claim a right to privacy here: criminal acts, whether you think they should be criminal or not, are not protected by the right to privacy. And again, publicizing brazen hypocrisy by public officials is good for our country.

Talking Point: "Bill Clinton! Bill Clinton! Bill Clinton! Kathleen Willey! Bill Clinton! Juanita Broaddrick! BillClintonBillClintonBillClinton!!!" (Chris Matthews will become hoarse shouting this this week. Limbaugh too.)

Response: Bite me. And when you're done biting me, what do you think about your prostitute-loving Bush administration officials? Don't they seem like hypocrites? Don't they? Huh? (Not a great response, but pulling the One-Size-Fits-All Bill Clinton Strawman is so weak it's hard to know what to say to it. Bite me.)

Of course if there are Dems snagged in this - and there will be, I'm sure - they'll scream their names and say that going after Repubs is hypocritical since there are Dems on the list. Screw that. This is about the fundamental dishonesty and hypocrisy that lies at the heart of today's Republican Party. This is about the Rush Limbaughs, Bill Bennets, Ted Haggards, Mark Foleys, Tom DeLays, Newt Gingrichs, David Driers, Bob Livingstons, Dick Cheneys, Karl Roves, and George W. Bushs who have incessantly portrayed themselves as God's Own Cleanup Crew who will fight the depravity of the Democratic Party while proving again and again to being so fundamentally and unrepentantly deceitful that you sometimes have to wonder if they have lied so perfectly that they believe their lies themselves.

This is about exposing them for what they are. Don't hold back.
