In reply to the discussion: SC Gov. Nikki Haley Named As Other Woman In Divorce Case [View all]ProfessionalLeftist
(4,982 posts)20. "nail them to the wall for their hypocrisy"
That's exactly the point of bringing attention to Ms. Haley's "dalliance" - to nail her to the wall for her hypocrisy both for her Republican beliefs in general and her assinine statement about contraceptives in particular.
I could care less who sleeps with whom. But when these holier-than-thou pretentious, hypocrite Repukes proselytize to the rest of us about "morality" and "family values" when they themselves are as immoral as anyone else if not moreso (usually moreso), then they need to be brought down upon the sharp edge of their own hypocrisy and whittled to a pile of sawdust with it.
That is the entire point here, not "who slept with whom". Nobody much cares about that - it's the hypocrisy.

The GOP tries to make morality an issue. We help them with that when we react to their dalliances.

Exactly. Focus less on the affair and more on the hypocrisy. I'm all for that.
