John P,
Mav, I am just asking you to be a better person. Defending your actions by saying that others do the same thing so it's all right if you do it is not a step in that direction
Sir, in case you haven't noticed, we (Republicans) have a reputation for allowing the bullets to rattle down around our ears without ever firing back.
Much of this is because the press and the democrats can hurl all the disinformation and spin at us without any consequences, but let a GOP member show a little spirit or screw up in any manner and they are fair game and it's hunting season, no bag limit.
Trying to get the press and the opposition leadership to like us is nonproductive, illogical, stupid and very OVER!
Please take responsibility for your own actions.
I certainly take plenty of heat for them and I'll also take responsibility for my reactions.

PS. Evan Novak just said that (in his opinion) Senator Torricelli (the Torch) may be asked to leave the Senate in exchange for his not being prosecuted on massive corruption charges.
