couldn't have gone farther? He offered her a Condo...and a job at Politico.

This is a guy who wants to pay women favors for viewing his "part" and it could go further.

Scott Ritter is sitting in Jail...for much the same thing. And, Scott Ritter helped expose that there were NO WMD's in IRAQ. But, he's in jail...and Weiner is running for Mayor of NYC.

Is it only Repugs we are supposed to bring down for sexual problems that could have wider ramifications. But...Dems get a pass?

How is that? Is that not hypocritical? What does that say about us? If Repugs and Former Dem President does it...then those are the kind of leaders we WANT? Maybe that's what got us where we are in this country and the world these days. GIVING A PASS to Privilege...because of PARTY LOYALTY? It filters down...and compromises come from behavior that can be compromised. We are hypocrites when we continue this stuff.
