"political weapons" - You may be right.
Do you believe that such things as ineptness, misfeasance, malfeasance, oral sex in the Oval Office can be matters with legitimate political implications?
In other words, does the fact that something may have negative political fallout for a politician render that fact something which should be kept from the public? So that it won't be a "political weapon"?
Serious question. You seem to say that, over and over, that if it may reflect poorly on a Republican it's none of the publics's business, just a "political weapon", but if it reflects badly on a Democrat it's fair game.
If that's true, what would be a one-word name for it?
And if it's not true, explain what you mean by "political weapon", if you would.
