whoa- bad example.

Foley resigned.

Clinton continued to serve.

Stubbs was censured- and continued to serve and be re-elected.

Etc etc.....who protects their sexual predators?

Not us- Leo castigated him- we all did. No one said what he did was right.

Everyone is a hypocrite- at some point.

I guess to some it is ok to be immoral- as long as you make it public.
