The Democratic 'Oreo Gang' rides yet again

Gregory Kane of the Baltimore Sun highlights another example of the double standards that Democrats seem to exemplify. A must read.//JW sends.

MARYLAND'S Democrats are railing and harrumphing and flailing their moral high horse with such vigor these days that the folks in PETA might bring them up on animal cruelty charges.

After Joseph F. Steffen Jr., who worked in Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.'s administration, got caught spreading e-mail rumors about some alleged affairs Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley was not having, Democrats are demanding investigations and apologies.

Those lovable, blessed Virgin Mary Dems -- so named because they figure they're without sin -- have even named the names of those they want to issue apologies. At the head of the list is Ehrlich.

So, the members of the Oreo Cookie Gang now have their underwear in a knot, do they?

You know who the members of the Oreo Cookie Gang are: Maryland's Democrats, the same ones who either:

a.) Brandished Oreo cookies at a gubernatorial debate at Morgan State University between then-candidates Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. and Kathleen Kennedy Townsend in 2002 or:

b.) Haven't uttered so much as a syllable condemning the despicable act.

Well, when it comes to apologies, let's take care of first things first, shall we?

If Democrats are really serious about apologies, then each and every single one of them should line up to apologize to Lt. Gov. Michael Steele for that Oreo cookie business.
