110. I think she is a Bad Person and so is He.

HINT: Knew he was married, that his wife thought it was monogamous, slept with him anyway.

HINT ON HIM: Married, told his wife it was monogamous, slept with another woman anyway.

I don't give a crap about the teenage hormone justification. Keep other people out of your relationships unless you have consent.

Hussy. Slut. Home-wrecker. Asshole. Adulterous Scum. Untrustworthy Selfish Liars.

Think I'm just talking about *HER* - ? Wrong. These are people of Bad Character who have demonstrated that they will lie, cheat, cover up and steal for their own benefit with no concern for anyone else (including those they purport to love and cherish) because they really believe the world revolves around them.

What kind of moron thinks this man should be trusted with access to the public's purse strings after he used public money to hide his affair from his wife? Who doesn't think he can't be controlled by blackmail when he gets caught by someone in his *NEXT* indiscretion?

This is a no-brainer for me.
