Republican Scandals Good for the Country?

As harmful and hurtful Republican scandals have been for the Party as well as the country, yesterday’s Earmark Reform, which the Senate passed yesterday 98-0, may be proof that some good has come from the fallout. The Democrats usually receive a free pass from the Press when it comes to overspending or even scandals. Now, when conservatives act and spend like liberals, the MSM is suddenly outraged, thereby making real reform possible.

I once thought the Press supported Democrats whole-heartedly because they both had a similar world view. Now I’m convinced it is because they can more easily control liberals. Meaning, what can you do with a Republican President who pays little heed to Media inspired polls and editorials, and instead listens to his head and heart in governing the nation?
