Politicians need to be shown that they are not above the law and are going to be held liable. Like the slap on the wrist Mark Foley got for sexually inappropriate solicitations with his pages.
And then there's Sen. Craig who pleaded guilt to sexual misconduct, then decided that he was confused about the plea and changed it to not guilty. Then, was allowed to submit a guilty plea for misdemeanor disorderly conduct.

Yup. And then there's Jim McGreevey, Gary Studds, Brock Adams, Fred Richmond, Eliot Spitzer, Willliam Jefferson, Mel Reynolds, Charley Rangel, Diane Wilkerson, Bill Richardson, Diane Feinstein, Rod Blagojevich, Jack Murtha, Tom Daschle, Ted Kennedy, Barney Frank, Bill Clinton, John Edwards, Tim Mahoney . . . and so on.

I see what you did there... clever.
The utter lack of non-partisan thought by some people is amazing to me. Can't have a general discussion about liability without some nitwit being ridiculous.

What partisan? Just helping you flesh out your non-partisan list. It is fun, though, to be a clever nitwit.

I listed two names, not much of a list.
Not to mention names of people that were actually reprimanded, one of which initially had criminal charges brought on him.
