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.”

He's about 79 now too
Amazing he is still alive
I didn't realize he was that old but with his girth and lifestyle he IS lucky he's still around.
Teddy has to be wearing an elastic girdle of some type under his suits everyday in the Senate
You've seen some of his photos on his boat
JFK wore one for his back
Yes I recall that JFK wore one. I'm sure the medical supply places have many types as you have to wear a type of one after some abdominal surgeries.
Maybe Gavin and Vicki Gene can attend the same rehab center and share notes on how to live the most outrageous lifestyle and benefit from it.

Only these two (2) sub-human beings could respond like this. And btw, NO ONE is in Clinton's league; except perhaps his murderous wife; "Lady MacHillary"!!
More Populist illogic from SODAM FRISCO!
I agree Nancee!
Teddy needs 3-4 girdles
Tightly wrapped with steel wire and duct tape.
Good day Nancee.
Newsome thinks his behavior is ok because he is not worse than Bubba or the swimmer.
Wow.
I wonder if we can use this line of logic if we get into trouble ?
One of those girdles should go over his mouth, lol!!
Duct tape - the all purpose 'fix all'!!
Makes you wonder if he ever feels humiliated that pictures like that get out to the public?!!
I had a picture of him in a thong as he bent over at a public beach. It was nasty. My eyes still hurt as I think of it.
He has no self respect nor humility...neither in private nor in public.
Oh my gosh, nasty can't begin to describe the thought of that!
His younger wife, Victoria, had to have married him for the name and money!
There is not enough money ...
