It's late and I'm tired, but I need to rescue something from the memory hole before I go to sleep.
When Senator David Vitter was caught using the services of prostitutes, he refused to answer questions about it or resign. And the ever-hypocritical holier-than-thou American Taliban welcomed him after the scandal with a standing ovation:
From Think Progress:
In selecting the individuals who “make our party what it is,” SRLC [Southern Republican Leadership Conference] chose Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) to kick off today’s events. Vitter, of course, is known for frequenting a Washington, D.C. and New Orleans prostitution service. The married father of four has led Senate efforts to pass a “Marriage Protection Amendment” and bring down ACORN. Today, right-wing activists rewarded Vitter with a standing ovation.
...
Former Sen. Rick Santorum, who followed Vitter, lauded the “principled conservative leadership that David Vitter has shown in the United States Senate.”
Please help me spread this far and wide. Here is the link from Think Progress that you can cut and paste:

Please post all over Facebook and Twitter. Let's see if we can make the media do its job and include the American Taliban's extra-marital sex ovation as part of the narrative.
