Rethuglican Family Values, Cont'd.

Think Progress has the details of the story of Rethuglican State Senator Michael "Bend It" Bennett, who was observed watching porn on his State-issued laptop during a debate on an anti-choice bill in the Florida Senate. When figuratively caught with his pants down, Bend It says that the porn was in an e-mail sent from a former female colleague.

For decades now, the Rethuglican / New Confederate Party has portrayed itself as the party of strict morality and probity. This is a small reminder that it's not, and really never has been. It's also another small reminder that one political party actually takes debating issues and governing seriously, and it's not the Rethuglican / New Confederate Party.
