OK. Let me get this straight: McCain is FamVal's newest Superfriend. Isn't he the same John McCain who left his disabled wife for the 25 year old Paris Hilton prototype he'd been having an affair with?

The "traditional families" mantra from the GOP has gotten old as they keep having closets burn down around them or experience mistress eruptions. They point to character failings of Democratic contenders as if the have contracted leprosy while chanting "Pay no attention to the little man behind the curtain" regarding their own misdeeds.

Let's face it: "character," as a campaign plank, has never impressed me. We have a rank history of pols (Democrat, Republican, Tory and Whig) who had no problem discriminating (or failing to act to prevent the same) in policy, practice and law against...

• Africans and then Black Americans
• Asians
• Native Americans
• The French and Their Descendants (though, regardless of the simple-minded "freedom" fries period we've experience of late, we do like their descendants more than those of the Spanish)
• Spaniards and Their Descendants
• The Irish
• Italians
• Jews
• Women
• Jewish Women
• Jewish Afro-Italian Women
• Gays, Lesbians and Bisexuals
• ....

We've had a collection of very nasty men serve in public office who, along with their arrogant views on the people listed above, also claim moral superiority and champion "traditional family values."

A supportive, nurturing, loving home--something that the Republicans by their actions has done little to support even among straight members listed above--has been the only bulwark against the actions of the GOP.

Maybe they should stay out of it, since they've done so much to damage them...their own.
