Republican arrested--keep the story going. Democrat arrested--make it go away

OK, we've been hearing for the las week about Republican Larry Craig and whether or not he was trying to solicit sex with an undercover cop (via McPaper). He pled guilty, said his actions were "misconstrued", yada yada yada. I guess he's right. I mean so he was playing footsie with the guy in the next stall, and reaching his hand under the stall divider. I mean, maybe he was out of TP and needed a new roll. Of course I'm being sarcastic!

That said, let's consider the curious case of Democrat Bob Filner shoving an airport employee (via Seattle Times) out of the way because she just wouldn't step-and-fetchit fast enough for his liking. What, you haven't heard much about it? Of course you haven't. That's because he's a Democrat, and the media have to watch out for their own.
