Who is yelling out about the "culture of corruption"? Is that not the same thing as claiming a higher moral ground? It is saying "you are corrupt and we are not".

Who has defended Foley?

I won't bother to go into Clinton, but the situation to me was not about his private sex life.

There is no shortage of hypocrisy anywhere in politics. It simply comes down to whose is more palatable to you based on your own politics.
