Double Standards, Part Two

The other recent conservative double standard comes with the recent Deep Throat revelations. Conservative pundits are now going off on how Deep Throat was a bad person, and how Nixon had been wronged. On a tangent, what's funny is how they dig up felons, like G. Gordon Liddy, to attack this guy.

Anyway, so what is the conservative standard for impeachment? We had the impending impeachment of Nixon, which was over breaking and entering, conspiracy, lying to congress and the people. We had the impeachment of Clinton, which was over a blow job. And we have the should be an impeachment of Bush, which would be for lying to the American people about the war, as well as for a variety of other reasons. So where is the line? Do blow jobs rate above burglary?

When will the conservatives and the Republican leadership have one set of standards that they apply to everyone. And frankly, when will they start to reign in their dogs in the executive branch.
