More Colorado Monkey Business from Gary Hart.

"Monkey Business" . . . was an 83-foot Broward motor yacht custom built and owned by the developers of (a) luxury resort. . . The ship was used by USA senator Gary Hart during his campaign for President of the United States in 1987. Around the time that Hart challenged the press to provide evidence of his infidelities, reporters for the Miami Herald, in a controversial move, staked out Hart's townhouse around the clock, and finally spotted the Senator with Miami model Donna Rice. The ensuing report sent the media into frenzy, and within days photos of Hart and Rice on the opulent yacht were flooding international media, and consequently his shot at the presidency had sunk. -- Wikipedia.

In other words, GOP statesmen reach across the aisle to vote for pet DNC projects, and you idiots endorsed a guy who would never do that. If people like you had your way, we'd never become a properly Communist nation.

"Follow Gary Hart on Twitter:"

He want's us to follow him? If I recall it was his challenge to the Miami Herald to follow him that lead to the townhouse stakeout that ended his campaign. Some people learn from their mistakes. And then there's ex-Senator Hart.

Wouldn't it be more newsworth if political hopefuls did NOT chase tail?

It is not as if the lack of standards has not already been set ...
