Same argument form you use almost every time you wish to complain about any Democrat.

"IF it were a Republican, you WOULD be saying 'X', 'Y', and 'Z'."

Sorry, Bruce...it just doesn't track. Wait until someone DOES, in fact, accuse a Republican of something. IF you wish to complain about Inouye, argue directly about the facts:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"The statement did not address Inouye's personal role in the inquiry, including whether he directed the aide to make the call or knew at the time that it had been made.

Even if Inouye were directly involved, it would not violate the rules the Senate sets for itself, experts said."

---------------------------------------------------------------

And you have never heard of any Republican politician seeking special treatment for his 'interests'? Let's see how this plays out. Seems to me like the answer would be "change the rules", and not shouting "See? He's a Democrat?"
