Now I note the darling of the talk radio jocks (I need hardly preface that with “right-wing”, do I? It seems redundant these days to do so) for AG is under investigation for misconduct.

The same Jocks, when the current AG screwed up, went on the warpath for weeks, even months. A good case could be made for their boy’s screwup being worse than the one they were complaining about, but even if you don’t buy into that, there’s still a burning question to ask:

Why the silence? Can you say “Double Standard?” None of them have had the guts to stand up and say, “I was wrong for supporting him for AG. He would have been a bad choice.” And what’s worse, no one’s called them on it.

Charlie (your silence bothers me the most; I’ve always respected you even when I disagreed with you), Jeff, Mark: Next time you want to start raising your voices in outrage at misconduct in office, I have three words for you: Pot. Kettle. Black.

(Disclosure time: I am acquainted with the current AG, before she became AG, through her son, whom I’d often meet at chess tournaments. The acquaintenceship, however, probably only goes the one way; I doubt she could pick me out of a lineup. And this acquaintenceship did not keep me from agreeing that she screwed up.)
