Take a look at the rest of their heroes. Rappers like 50 Cent. People who've raised tacky to an artform with their bling. As long as there is flash, everything is awright, yah.
You are correct that there are similar people on the other side but there is a term for them, RINOs or 'Republican In Name Only'. For that is what they are. They may be paying members of the RNC but they are all for putting the taxpayer's money in their pockets and lining their buddies pockets. They lie, cheat, steal, obfuscate and turn with the prevailing winds as it suits them. And their constituents eat it up instead of calling them on it.
To me, that means one thing. That their constituents, that the Old Media a.k.a. the MSM love the fact that they lie. They see it as a badge of honor. Anybody not doing these things, anybody who actually tries to change things for the better NOW, instead of kicking the can down the road, is vilified and attacked. The whole 'Waterbottle-gate' fracas surrounding Marco Rubio comes to mind. Juxtapose that with the Celebrity-status of the President and First Lady. Getting the Nobel Peace Prize without doing anything to actually warrant it. Presenting an award at the Oscars. Even Nikki Finke of Deadline Hollywood was disgusted with that little drama, just read her live-blog of the Oscars.
Lostboy, that article is deadon. Anti-heroes and outright criminals are the new posterboys and girls for the masses. Heroes aren't welcome anymore.
