I typically don't care what someone does in their personal life.  One of the exceptions for me involves people who are in positions of public trust.  I'm paying this guy's salary.  I don't want someone like him making decisions that affect my life if he is that reckless in his personal life.  Incredibly poor judgment.

OK- I see your point of view  - only you know as well as I do this isn't a one off occurance
& there's very many in positions of public trust doing exactly the same.
Hell, look what Bill Clinton was up to in the oval office !!

Oh I know it's rampant.  But we keep electing and re-electing these clowns.

I see it both ways. For the most part, I don't care what these guys do in their personal lives. We all have to set our own standards for what we expect from these politicians.
Liar!!!!Filt!!!!

I draw a distinction between what they do before becoming a public servant versus what they do while in office.  And it depends on what is going on at home.  If a guy is trying to use his family as props and portray a big happy family, but is actually doing hard drugs and taking it up the tailpipe, I don't want him anywhere near public office.  (Andrew Gillum).  But if a guy is married to someone like Katie Porter then I would totally understand.  lol

His President probably is.  Having affairs seem to be ok with him.

LMFAO!

What has that got to do with looking silly because some want a member of Congress to resign over an affair but yet, not the President?

Did you also want Bill to resign or were you okay with his carry on.

Bill was and always will be a piece of shit.  The democrats should have tossed him in 98. Because it would have been the right thing to do.  Additonally, Gore probably would have cruised to a victory in 2000 and the Bush global nightmare would never have happened.

Clinton was impeached.  As he should have been.

Yes - Correct only he wasn't removed from office - so it didn't achieve
much if anything. Just a waste of Time.
