They have flouted their own ethics because Republicans did it. What do you want, a pat on the back? "I was a good person until it became difficult so I stopped". If your ethics and beliefs are dependent on the circumstances you find yourself in then you don't have beliefs. You have conveniences. Now you all weasel out of our responsibilities for accountability by using the same language as the Republicans. "Why should we play by the rules when the Democrats don't?!" The reality is you never wanted to play by the rules, just like them. You wanted to win. If that's how you want to live your lives then so be it. As snakes who shed their beliefs as easily as they shed their skin.

If you cannot fathom being good when it is difficult then you were never good to begin with. You just wanted the prestige of it. When the prestige of righteousness is no longer useful to you you discard righteousness as a burden. Then you look at me with contempt?
