Michigan Republicans are demanding that Dave Agema, a Republican Congressman from the west part of the state step down as a National Republican Committee member. Agema has made some controversial and bigoted statements about gays and Middle Easterners.
It's hard not to laugh at these Republicans demanding the resignation. These are the same guys, including the governor, who engaged in underhanded activities over the past few years. Remember the NERD fund? How about limiting what courts can hear cases, those pertaining to a certain party? Then there was locking the capitol doors while considering a bill. Let's not forget using the capitol police to keep Michigan citizens away from the capitol another time. The list seems endless--and growing.
Yet, these guys are all upset about Agema, most likely because they perceive he will cost them votes, not at all due to any moral, ethical, etc. concerns. Agema needs to go. But he's not the only one, not if we're concerned with morals, ethics, honesty, and integrity.
But when it comes to the two major parties, I'm talking to myself.
