Liberals are always cheering for the wrong people.
Have you ever noticed?
In our war on Islamo-fascism, they ask America to withdraw. When Hugo Chavez smells sulfur at the United Nations, liberal Democratic senators "understand" him (i.e., Tom Harkin). But no one is a liberal's hero the way an adulterer is.
You would think in a world shaped by modern liberal feminists that liberal media types and liberal politicians would be rushing to the aid of the poor wife and kids, offering them welfare and state-funded counseling and beating the offending man to within an inch of his life. But not so.
The original love affair with adultery happened with the former president who to this day cannot be offered a cigar without a range of comments flooding through people's minds. Yet by comparison, William Jefferson Clinton's adultery was a little bland, even unimpressive by the new superhero, extra-marital fornicators of our time.
Who are they? Men who engage in same-gender sexual activities!
This is why Bishop Eugene Robinson of the now nearly defunct Episcopal Church is revered by those on the political left. "He was true to himself," they say with almost breathless whisper, as if this act of discovering his belly button was some form of epic courage.
Forget the fact that he has ruined an entire denomination of Christian faith; the fact that he can go home at night and engage in sick sexual perversion makes him a legend amongst the political left.
But now there's a new kid on the scene. Having done all he could to ruin the state of New Jersey – a state he took a solemn oath to protect and serve – the new adulterer liberals all love is Jim McGreevey. Just in the last week alone he's held hands with Oprah and shared New Jersey rest-area secrets with Matt Lauer.
He's also invoked God's name about 300 times.
And now he says, "It's all about telling the truth."
But I'd like to know, "Since when?"
It wasn't important enough for the governor to keep his pants zipped after pledging to do so before God and man ... with his wife – twice!
There was no commitment to "telling the truth" or "confessing" (a reference to the poorly titled book the ex-governor is now pimping) when he's arriving home from the busy day in Trenton and telling his wife and child everything but the truth – only then to whisk himself away under the late night guise of more work to go have an anonymous tryst with psychopaths along turnpike hide-a-ways.
Enough!
There is no need to tell us about the prayer cards you read before you made your big press conference announcing your resignation.
While Oprah, Lauer, McGreevey and the throngs of Democrats who "support" him may be holding hands singing "Kumbayah," some adult needs to come along and ask a few serious questions.
Questions like why should you be praised for your "honesty" now when you were putting sexual pleasure ahead of the security of the state you served? Who can trust you after you named a lover to the post of homeland security czar who was neither an American citizen, nor was qualified to even attend homeland security meetings?
But what about the deeper questions that no one ever asks these jokers?
Robinson, McGreevey and even Clinton to a certain degree became sympathetic figures because of this "true to your self" mantra. But in the grown-up world, don't we try to instruct our boys that the definition of a hero is someone who overcomes his own natural fears to accomplish more and be more and do more than they think is possible? Isn't it good to teach our young men that when they enter into a marriage they should strive to be their family's superhero?
Isn't it a healthy thing for a father to leave the home in the morning thinking, "I'm going to go slay the dragons of this world so that my family and the sacredness of my home won't be victimized by the evil in the world"?
One of McGreevey's actual excuses, as relayed on Lauer's interview, was to mention that his parents were not role models for him because they themselves did not engage in homosexual activity.
Is he listening to himself? Did he want them to?
If they had, he would not even be here!
In the whole spin cycle of garbage about sexual behavior and why we're "made a certain way" we forget that choices are made for every single action taken. With Clinton, the issue was "come on, every body does it." With Robinson and McGreevey, it's simply, "I'm being true to myself."
In truth, it's selfishness coupled with the refusal to curb their sexual appetite. It's the refusal to make the choice not to be a slave to their impulses. Basically, they are still little boys who do not know how to discipline themselves – only now they wish the world to feel sorry for them. And in McGreevey's case, he's openly seeking to work with kids for his life's mission now.
Uh, no thank you!
I don't understand the attraction, but one thing is true: Liberals love adulterers.
And today, if you break your vows of commitment to your wife and children, abandon them and get kinky with rest-stop lowlife, while simultaneously endangering a populous state in the midst of a war on terror, you're a rock star!

No pun intended I presume? :-)
oh no, not at all . . . why do you ask? :)
Don't leave out the Right that worship McCain, Newt and Rudy.
BTW, I agree with you that if a man can't be faithful to his family, he will not be faithful to his country.

The liberal love affair with adultery goes back at least as far as JFK (wink, wink, what a guy!), maybe even to FDR.

It's the crackers, in his jeans ... the impeached one.
I don't know if that's necessarily true.... I think Dwight Eisenhower was VERY faithful to his country.
Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack
I went out for a ride and I never went back
Like a river that don't know where it's flowin'
I took a wrong turn and I just kept goin'
Everybody's got a hungry heart...
And don't forget they once wanted to make this dope's "Born To Run" the NJ state song.. until it was pointed out that the song was about getting the HELL out of Jersey.
Yes, that was a brilliant idea of the New Jersey legislature's, until someone realized that elementary school children would be singing the song in assembly....
"I want to guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs round these velvet rims
And strap your hands across my engines
Together we could break this trap
Well run till we drop, baby well never go back..."
Like the brilliant person on the Reagan campaign who wanted to use Mellencamp's "Little Pink Houses" because of the catchy "Ain't that America/Home of the free" refrain, but that's not really the message of the song.
"And there's winners, and there's losers
But they aint no big deal
cuz the simple man baby pays for the thrills,
The bills and the pills that kill"
Lyrics, people. Pay attention to the lyrics. :)
