From the Republican Party that holds itself to a higher "values" standard, I give you Tom DeLay - leader of the house (via the NYTimes)
WASHINGTON, April 5 - The wife and daughter of Tom DeLay, the House majority leader, have been paid more than $500,000 since 2001 by Mr. DeLay's political action and campaign committees, according to a detailed review of disclosure statements filed with the Federal Election Commission and separate fund-raising records in Mr. DeLay's home state, Texas.
Most of the payments to his wife, Christine A. DeLay, and his only child, Dani DeLay Ferro, were described in the disclosure forms as "fund-raising fees," "campaign management" or "payroll," with no additional details about how they earned the money. The payments appear to reflect what Mr. DeLay's aides say is the central role played by the majority leader's wife and daughter in his political career.
How did the party of "values" respond - clearly they called for him to come clean. Call for him to respond honestly. Umm.. No.
My favorite is that most Republicans I know aren't even embarrassed. You know what, when we all found out Clinton got a hummer - we Democrats were embarrassed. We thought less of him. We didn't want him impeached, but we vocally wanted him to set the record straight.
