"A Washington watchdog group welcomed the Republican leadership's decision to seek an ethics investigation against Craig but it questioned why they had not sought a similar probe of Sen. David Vitter of Louisiana, also a Republican. Vitter admitted a "serious sin" in July after he was linked to "D.C. Madam" Deborah Jeane Palfrey, who is accused of running a prostitution ring in Washington. She says it was a legal escort service. "The only possible interpretation of the Republicans' differing reaction to the two cases is that Sen. Craig's case involves gay sex. Apparently soliciting for heterosexual sex does not offend the 'family values' platform in the way that soliciting for gay sex does," the Committee for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington said in a statement."
