Is anybody getting sick & tired of ANY stories about our pols in bed (or elsewhere) with people they aren’t married to? I was too young for JFK & Marilyn (now THAT’s a good choice - if you’re going to cheat, go with the best); Bill, Monica & the cigar was a national disgrace; McSleazy & his queer tryst - utterly sickening - we did NOT need to hear about that; Spitzer-nauseating, if only because of him; now we have to relive McSleazy again???
Why can’t we go back to the days when the bedmate of a politician was his business and his wife’s, not that of the nation? There are enough financial and influence-peddling scandals to go around - why can’t the press concentrate on those? They are, after all, a whole bunch more relevant to whether someone is fit to hold power than their choice of bedmates.
It’s pretty big news when a president is impeached for lying or a sitting gov hires a gay lover for Homeland Security Chief or a arrogant NY gov launders $$ to pay for a call girl.
Well, it is becoming clearer to us li'l folk out here in the heartland why anyone would want to go to a party's national convention...and it ain't for the food...or the speeches.
