Really? You don't say? If that moron knew a fucking thing about human psychology he'd know that his infidelity is an evolutionary trait, and not a label trait. His lying was the problem, not the sex act itself.
AND men with power in general, regardless of political label, even just in private business, can and do have affairs because they think their power can allow them to avoid getting caught, but that is also a risk taker mentality as well Clinton did it for the same reason.
However, I wouldn't condemn him for being human just a hypocrite. Dems are willing to leave the private life of a politician out of the issue of their preformance. If anyone's wife choses to stay or divorce them it still is their choice beyond what I would do in their place.
Right wing nuts hate bug government when it comes to regulation that regards other classes as humans, but love big government when you touch your own body or someone elses body with concent.
Adultery is not a criminal offense for a reason. Otherwise he should self deport himself to a prison.
