But do Republicans not claim to be the party of traditional values and morality? Nothing reeks more of hypocrisy than claiming the moral high ground in public, but being very immoral in private. Republicans tried to crucify Clinton because he lied about his sex life. Yet they defend Foley and those who covered up for him. Can you not see the double standard?
