And the Republican of the Week is....

Vito Fossella!

Mr. Fossella is declining to run for a sixth term to the House of Representatives after not only being arrested for drunk driving, but admitting to fathering a child out of wedlock.

Let's give a round of applause for what may be a unique sort of Republican... one caught in a sex scandal with... a woman! On the other hand, he is so homophobic as to not even attend family gatherings when his sister, a lesbian, attends. So it's probably only a matter of time before some male hooker comes forward with tales of Fossella's love of the gimp mask.
