"Our families were close," a weary-looking Ensign said. "That closeness put me into situations which led to my inappropriate behavior. We caused deep pain to both families and for that I am sorry."

I hate when that happens. The excuses are getting really ridiculous. The idea that your family being close to another family would just allow this to happen is beyond incredible.

Perhaps the blackmailer pimped his wife. He certainly found value in their affair after the fact.

Wasn’t the “teenager” who outed Mark Foley was a Democrat aide? The DNC shared the IMs (which were saved) with the media in the springtime and then sat on them until the fall election only to proclaim that the GOP “knew and did nothing” (just like the media and DNC).

Entrapment doesn’t excuse the behavior but more seems to be afoot than mere sex.

Agreed, it actually shows just how far down the line this POS senator is in moral values. I would like to think and know a friend of mine could trust me with his wife.
