Shortcomings...short memory...short...

Time for Vitter to change his diapers.

Yeah! But she was cute and I had the money.

Did he have his diapers on when he made this call for Burris to resign ?

There's nothing like trying rebuild your house, after it's been burned to the ground by an arsonist, than by employing the very same arsonist to rebuild the house that was just burned to the ground....

Geeze, Dave. Sure Burris is ethically challenged, but it's not worth filling your diaper over.

This rash of diaper jokes is really starting to stink.

Is it just me, or are the Republicans acting especially bizarre today? Did someone dose their coffee with LSD?

"Vitter, who's has spent years lecturing others about morality and the "sanctity of marriage," arranged extra-marital liaisons while on the floor of Congress"

So, if Vitter went to a whore after piously chiding the rest of the country about marriage, where's he going to go now that he's scolding Burris about political corruption?

Diaper Dave is from Louisiana. A state that has produce a few "colorful" senators in the past.

Yes but the DC Madam is conveniently dead now so.. Jesus forgave David Vitter and she is burning in Hell forever, right? Isn’t that how it plays out?

What would Jesus screw?

One begins to suspect that GOP hypocrisy is a feature, not a bug.

Yes, but his wife and his God have forgiven him, so it's all OK now, don't you see? Like it never happened.

It is SO crass of you to mention it again.

Vitter: The joke that keeps on making us laugh!

Thanks, Dave. BTW, does your wife still have that smokin' hot leopard skin dress?

I can't look at the good Sen. Vitter without thinking about that horror classic with Angenette Comer and Ruth Roman (who someone described in the movie as a cross between Joan Crawford, Bette Davis and Ernest Borgnine)...The Baby.

speaking of Vitter, anyone see the story about Jindal in the Post today? I think we may have found the source of the diaper problem...

"At the time, I was feeling I was on a good career path," recalled committee member David Vitter, a Republican who had just won election to the state legislature and now is Louisiana's junior senator. "I came home and told my wife, 'I just met somebody today who makes me feel both stupid and old.' "

"Come and gone."

Ah yes, ejaculate and evacuate...

Tough reelection race? Uhm, really?

There are too many stupid, brainwashed people in LA who spend far too much time listening to the Limbaugh's of the world and voting against their own interests. I see them every day when I read right-wing sites. Vitter is tres popular by his right-wing supporters.

Future headline: Jindal turns down money for constitutes and wins re-election. Meanwhile, thousands continue to starve.

Vitter wins re-election on pro-family platform. He hasn't seen a pro in two years!

Friggin' ADD of the electorate.

The Post assassination cartoon would have been of service, if the victim was a white man wearing a diaper.

Ah but in LA what Vitter did isn't all that much of a problem even for a Republican. According to Edwin Edward he would have to have been caught with a "dead girl or a live boy" for it to truly have been a problem. Of course considering LA what Burris did/didn't do isn't that much of a big deal either......

Pot, meet Kettle....

Cal Gal: Thanks, Dave. BTW, does your wife still have that smokin' hot leopard skin dress?

Ah, yes. The wife who made a big point of publicly announcing in the late 1990s that if she were Hillary Clinton, she sure as hell wouldn't be such a doormat as to stand by her faithless man.

I'm getting a strong whiff of presidential aspiration off Vitter, who has been making love to the cameras (hand him that Johnson's baby lotion and the pacifier) for weeks now. Oh, god, please, please, please...

It wasn't just the DC madam, was it? I was under the impression that he also had a regular account with a whorehouse in Louisiana, back home where his wife was.

I was under the impression that he also had a regular account with a whorehouse in Louisiana, back home where his wife was.

Correct. David is a serial John.

Vitter reminds me of the father who gets caught effing around on mommy, goes into an emotional tailspin, drinking every night and failing to go to work most days until he's fired, standing in the living room in his underwear (or in his case, a diaper), waving a nearly-empty bottle of gin "I am still the man of this house and I demand respect!" Because, you see, if you fail to acknowledge you did anything wrong, then presto! You didn't! Easy & fun and really, who suffers?

I'm not kidding, this is EXACTLY the kind of person I think of whenever I see Vitter open his prostitute-tasting pie hole.

Boy, what a bench the GOP team has -- Vitter, Larry Craig, Jim Bunning, Norm Coleman. Oy. They need a sub with a good three point shot.

Is Jindal angling for Vitter's seat?'

I haven't had strong feelings for or against Burris, but now that Vitter has entered the fray I definitely want Burris to stick around long enough to let them 'fight it out' in the press. This can only make Vitter look more ridiculous.

But then, it does distract from the Dem agenda.

Okay okay, so I'm still undecided. heh.

Seeing Jesse Jackson Jr after Obama's speech tonight, just as the PBS commentators were tlaking about Roland Burris brings up the question:

Why isn't anyone asking Jackson to resign? He was right in the thick of the Blago Senate-seat-selling scandal (the BSSSS). But here we are pointing at Burris and Burris alone.

What am I missing? Why is Jackson getting a pass?

Certainly, Burris has made things tough on himself, but so have dozens of other Senators and Congressmen over the last several years. Hardly ANY have resigned. Why should Burris?

From toe-tapping to hookers to bridges to macaca to wishing Strom Thurmond had been elected back in 1948, and lots of others, most are still around, and only the voters kept some of them from still being in the Congress.

Disgraced? Yeah. Gone? Not many.

Burris is within his right to stay right where he is.

Remember Teddy Kennedy and the events of 1968? He is still there, isn't he? Burris isn't any Teddy, but scandals pass.

We just - FINALLY - got rid of the biggest embarrassment this country has ever had to endure, so what Burris is putting us all through is NOTHING.

Is he perfect? Hell no, but who in Illinois politics IS?

We just sent the best Presidential material to Washington in our state's history, bar one.

SO our new one isn't Abe or Barack. But he also isn't Dick Cheney or George Bush. Or Blagojevich.
