So, to recap: in Louisiana, Vitter carried on a year-long affair with
a prostitute in 1999. Then he ran for the House as a hard-core social
conservative family values candidate, parading around his wife and
kids as props and leading the public crusade in defense of traditional
marriage.
Then, in Washington, he became a client of Deborah Palfrey's. Then he
announced that amending the Constitution to protect traditional
marriage was the most important political priority the country faces.
Rush Limbaugh, Fred Thompson and Newt Gingrich supported the same
amendment.
As always, it is so striking how many Defenders of Traditional
Marriage have a record in their own broken lives of shattered
marriages, multiple wives and serial adultery. And they never seek to
protect the Sacred Institution of Traditional Marriage by banning the
un-Christian and untraditional divorces they want for themselves when
they are done with their wives and are ready to move on to the next,
newer model. Instead, they only defend these Very Sacred Values by
banning the same-sex marriages that they don't want for themselves.
