Under your theory, until every murderer is convicted of murder no one should be convicted.

Not sure that's how it is supposed to work.

No shit, sherlock.

We are not talking about a regular man on the street. Instead, Zabel is an elected official. Standard for behavior should be higher for him. I can be ok with giving him a second chance, but there is that 2nd woman. And there is the GQP controlled Ethics Commission which did absolutely nothing.

Which is one reason why I believe the GQP ought to shut up until they address the wife beaters in their midst.
