Paul Gibson versus Michael Coutts-Trotter

Speaking of fluffy wuffy double standards, cop this one:

NSW Premier Iemma dropped Blacktown MP Paul Gibson because he was accused of committing domestic violence (and not by the alleged victim!) many years ago.

Almost simultaneously Iemma elevated Michael Coutts-Trotter to the post of Education Minister, even though he was convicted of drug dealing many years ago. 

Clearly, all closet skeletons rattle; but some rattle a helluva lot more than others.

How dodgy is that government?  (And how pathetic are the NSW Libs, that they can't beat 'em?)
