For the record, I never supported him, but get back to me when the War and Economic criminals are being prosecuted. Until then, an affair pales no matter how despicable it was, by comparison to the torture and the hundreds of thousands of lost lives, and the destruction of the millions of lives caused by the Wall Street Criminals.
We are not a country of laws. So until the law is applied equally to those whose crimes have destroyed the lives of millions, I really can't get too excited about a politician having an affair anymore.
Cheney got a new heart. How nice and what an indictment of our so-called judicial process that only Democrats appear to be get indicted.
Since we're 'looking forward' regarding these major crimes, seems to me that equal justice under the law would require 'looking forward' when it comes to extra-marital affairs even if they were paid for as alleged, something he denies btw. Considering the trillions spent on Wall St and the illegal wars, I simply don't get the outrage over this relatively, please note the word 'relatively' minor 'crime'.
