I don't get why pleading guilty to a misdemeanor is resulting in the Senate Republicans calling for an ethics inquiry into the allegedy horny allegedly homosexual senator from Idaho.
Is it because it's a crime of moral turpitude, or whatever?

Two possibilities:
Did he fail to comply with a Senate ethics rule requiring him to report the conviction?
He's said that he lied under oath, in essence, in pleading guilty.
Both of these seem like pretexts, though.
