James Smith and Alan English are two pigeons from the same roost. They do what they are told. They are far left wing liberals

Whew that man has a really bad toupee!
I once sent a negative email to him regarding a show that was supposed to be on that night and they cancelled it with no warning and put on a local fireworks display. Anyway no big deal just thought I'd vent. Well much to my surprise a couple of days later he highlighted my email and read it to the public! I was truly shocked because I had not been asked in any way shape or form if they could use my email on t.v. I learned a big lesson that day that nothing is private!!

I just don't equate Vitter to corrupt Louisiana politics. Corrupt morals, maybe....but not corrupt politics like so many other politicians before him that Louisiana is famous for.

Vitter has done no political crime. The DNC is nothing more that a attack dog that is all about tearing down any one from the GOP. Liberal crap and LA has a long history of that pardon the French Mary, Mary will be next to go and oh what a great day that will be. No more Moon Pie for LA

I emailed Vitter and extended my personal support(forgiveness). I also urged him to use whatever political clout he had left to support Ron Paul.

I don't think you can equate the two things these men have done in terms of which one is more wrong. However, you must be reminded that soliciting a prostitute is against the law in 49 states I believe. So in truth David Vitter did break the law, did he not?

I do not support the left sided comments of this editorial for the most part and I would love to see the Louisiana politics cleaned up. You did have to look at it all for what it is though and a crime is a crime.

I think both men are crooks. Jefferson is a political crook and Vitter is a moral crook. Both are equally wrong, Both in different words use people. I used to work at a place that was like 3 businesses together. The left side of the building was a liquor store, the middle section a restaurant, the third was a motel all divided by a thin wall. I use to have deacons, preachers and so fourth come into the restaurant order liquor by the bottle and say they would be back to pick it up. They would go out the back door to the post office behind our business. They then would come back through the restaurant to pick up their booze. They would always tell us they could not go through the liquor store doors because the other people where watching that door. If they came through the restaurant then they could say they were getting food. I find it appalling, to find people hiding the very thing they preach about that are suppose to be bad. As in Vitter's case. I have nothing against church, but there's a saying pratice what you preach. I think all politicians are crooks to a degree, some worst than others. If this offends someone I'm sorry, but by working in public this is what I've seen.

This kind of illustrates my point. Has anyone heard of a single case where someone emailed Jefferson extending their support and forgiveness for taking bribe money and stashing it in his freezer? I haven't.
