Read the comments to today’s Washington Post article on this subject. The leftists could care less about the breach of ethics since they hate Chaffetz for giving the Planned Parenthood CEO a hard time.
At one time in this nation there were commonly held standards for ethics and people believed those violating laws and ethical rules should be punished no matter their race, creed, color, social status, or political affiliation. In today’s world we seem to adopt a standard that what was once considered unacceptable behavior is admirable if it is engaged in on behalf of the right cause.
A society and culture cannot survive if every behavior is politicized and there are no moral or ethical absolutes.
There still are commonly held standards in America, but not among the anti-America left - which is represented by the current administration.
