"Standing up for what's right"

Almost 24 hrs since the Scooter Jensen conviction came in and still not a peep from the right-wingnut blogosphere.

Charlie Sykes, self proclaimed "champion of the Wisconsin Blogosphere" who "stands up for what's right" can't seem to figure out how to defend the indefensible and now convicted Jensen for fleecing taxpayers. Of course, the expected spin will go something like, "everyone did it" and "it wasn't pay to play." Sykes doesn't seem to have a problem with Jensen and the Assemby GOP fleecing of taxpayers, so the next time he talks about protecting taxpayers keep in mind that when he was given the chance to stand up for taxpayers and personal responsibility, Sykes chose to stand with Jumpsuit Jensen.

Not a word from McBride who is never short on the blabbing. Perhaps she is waiting for her marching orders from "champion." Look for a "I'm a mother, candidate wife, busy state bureaucrat," excuse for her silence.

And only silence from Fraley, Jordhal, McIlheran and just about the entire lot of the Sykes blog roll.

I did find this however.

"My thoughts and prayers go out to Scott Jensen and his family." - Kevin at Lakeshore Laments.

"Aw, shoot." -Wendy at Boots and Sabers.

"The political witch hunt that was the Scott Jensen trial is over."-Badger Blogger .

At Badger Blogger they proclaim "Covering Wisconsin the way the media won't. Covering the media, the way they fear!" Seems to me that they won't cover this because they are afraid.

The choice is clear, taxpayers or Jensen and the right has chosen Jensen. What's so right about that?
