The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

And as for trying to dismiss wrongdoing on one side by saying, “But, but, but… Soandso does that too!” is a poor defense.

Let me ask you this Nephy…. If you were talking to one of your children about something wrong that they had done, what would be your reaction if he/she tried to use the excuse that their brother/sister did it too. Would you let them off the hook? No. Wrongdoing on one side does not excuse wrongdoing on the other.

The actions of some Republican lawmakers can not be dismissed because some Democrats have done bad things as well.
