While 90 percent admit that adultery is morally wrong, according to a Time-CNN poll, 50 percent say that President Bill Clinton's morals are "about the same as the average married man."

These are the 50 percent who will vote for predators like Klintoon no matter what, this is BJ's legacy and it shows.

I agree with you. I cannot imagine a scenario where I would even be tempted to cheat on my husband. Not only is it WRONG, it would be the ultimate betrayal. I could never do that to him.

I'm sure he feels the sameway.

I have definite convictions about adultery; the spouse that commits adultery should be executed. Period.

When the occupant of the Oval Office is telling the entire world that oral sex isn't really sex (and if it isn't really sex, it isn't really adultery), then by extension, pornography and other immoral behavior is okay too.

Having an affair simply doesn't carry the social stigma that it once did.

Therein lies the problem. The left works hard to end the shame associated with any number of issues for that very reason. I say we should embrace disgrace!

Psychologists cite subjective issues like loss of love and feelings of alienation. Certainly the media pressure of our sex-saturated society is a significant influence. But a major factor is the easy availability of cheap and plentiful Internet pornography.

Yeah, no one had affairs before tv and the Internet. Please.

If the left had their way, only hate crimes (and then only against the left's favored groups) and corporate malfeasance (which would eventually include such things as showing a profit) would be illegal.

It's rather dishonets to link internet porn as the causal facotor for affairs. Obviously people had affairs before the internet and do so in the absence of the internet.

They might as well have linked obesity to internet porn.

While 90 percent admit that adultery is morally wrong...

Don't forget that adulterers don't necessarily approve of what they do. The way Jesus defined adultery (a matter of the heart and imagination), we are all adulterers...except for that dull few.

And Salvation pulls us out of that mire of conceit. And Salvation heals us from that and a million other diseases.

Ain't that a shower on the parade of the self-righteousness of the non-adulterers.
