And the irony meter pins:

Louisiana Sen. David Vitter (R), who survived a 2007 sex scandal, called on Sen. Roland Burris (D-Ill.)  to resign Tuesday for his ethical shortcomings.

Vitter was connected with a prostitution ring two years ago and  dismissed any suggestion of hypocrisy given his own refusal to resign in the wake of that scandal.

"I honestly don’t know anybody who would compare these situations," he told The Hill on Tuesday. "They are dramatically different." 

The uppity negro  also examines the Burris situation, albeit without Vitter’s crushing lack of self-awareness.
