San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom said he cannot understand why people are so upset with him. News of Newsome’s sexual affair with his former appointments secretary, Ruby Rippey-Tourk, wife of former Newsom adviser Alex Tourk has sparked criticism and calls for his resignation. Unsurprisingly, the criticism has not been ameliorated by Newsome’s announcement that he is going to undergo treatment for alcoholism.
“I don’t see what all the fuss is about,” Newsome complained. “President Clinton had lots of affairs, but he’s ‘Mr. Cool’ with the media. Senator Kennedy got drunk, drove off a bridge and killed a young woman he was having an affair with and nobody’s calling for him to step down. I’m no worse then either of these guys.”
Former President Clinton shrugged off Newsome’s remarks as “sour grapes.” “The man is obviously jealous,” Clinton said. “He’s had one affair and he thinks he can compare himself to me? I’m America’s favorite ex-president. My biography’s a best seller. Everywhere I go, women throw themselves at me. Newsome’s what, mayor of ‘Gay Town, USA?’ He’s not even in my league.”
Senator Kennedy was not as forgiving. “Mary Jo’s been dead more than 30 years,” Kennedy said. “It’s ‘old news.’ I’ve moved on with my life. It’s mean-spirited for Mayor Newsome to bring this up at such a late date. It shows a real lack of decency on his part.”

All satire aside, there is no chance Newsom's job will go to a Republican. Thus, he is fair game for San Francisco's politically ambitious Left.
From what I've seen of him on TV, I'm still getting over the shock that he had an affair with a woman. At least I'm guessing it's a woman, this sort of thing isn't as clear cut as it used to be in California and New York.

REPEAT loud and often.
Cheaters, rapists and murderers. What a great politial slogan. "I'm no worse then either of these guys." What a load of crap! No you aren't any worse, JUST AS BAD!
You know that the article is satire and the quote is fake, right?
"All satire aside, there is no chance Newsom's job will go to a Republican. Thus, he is fair game for San Francisco's politically ambitious Left."
Exactly. By national standards Newsom is very liberal, by SF standards he's Newt Gingrich.
Yes. I know. But I consider them all in the same boat and I wish someone would sink it.
