No, I will not buy into this "he served, he's untouchable" school of thought. He did the crime, he'll do the time, he just needs to take it like a man and quit crying like a *****.[/B]
Interesting approach. Personnally, I love it when people put words into others mouths. I've seen no one claim Duke's innocent. I've seen no one claim he's "untouchable" with respect to his crime. Quite the opposite actually, he's been roundly condemned by both sides and I've seen nothing to indicate that anyone, least of all Republicans, have defended him or said it's an unfair attack on him. Nothing in that article says it either
If the guy wants to make up excuses, blaim others and plead for lieniency than isn't that his perogative? Does that make him any different from any other convict? As far as how people feel about him personally, well that's also their perogative. If, when remembering what he's done both good and bad they're a bit more prone to forgiveness that is also their perogative. Personnally, as both a conservative and someone who knows Duke I'm not prone to forgive any of what he's done and believe he's gotten what he deserves.
