You know, when the hypocrisy of someone you admire comes up and bites you on the ass it really takes the wind out of your sails. This must be what it feels like to be Republican.
Cheap shots:
The FBI has a reminder for Florida.
This should make the next Summer Olympics very interesting.
Dude, according to the lawyers I know (and I know a few) this actually increases the odds that you're going to do some jail time.
I've said it before about Republicants and Democrats alike - I don't give a damn about your sex life. Do what you want as long as it is safe and consensual. It's the lying that pisses me off.
And because I love you, Wax
While I agree with you that politicians' sex lives shouldn't be important and as big a deal as our media makes it out to be, the fact is, our media does, and our public does. Otherwise, tabloid papers and paparazzi would be out of business.
ReplyDeleteSo, knowing that it is a huge deal that is totally blown out of proportion, and knowing that anything once put on the internet is forever on the internet, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE MEN? I mean seriously, is it that hard to keep one's sex life private and off the computer? Is it that hard to stay faithful, or have an agreement with one's wife?
These men have to know that every moment of their life has the potential to be scrutinized and publicized. If they don't want to be public figures, then stay out of politics. You can't have it both ways - obviously. They obviously know what they are doing won't be viewed in a good light, that's why they lie about it, which of course, makes it worse. And naturally, those lies will be exposed. You think that makes people view you better? Now you've exposed yourself in some way and you lied about it. Way to go.
If you want to have your sex and politics, move to France. Otherwise, buck up, live within this society's prudish morals for politicians, and keep it off the internet.
