Philandering Pandering

From John Edwards to Tiger Woods, although the later has not fostered any illegitimate children that we know of, male public figures seem not to be able to contain their most base instincts.  Marriage seems to be no longer considered a theological vow, although still considered a business binding contract and breaking that contract has legal consequences.  This certainty must surely rile the likes of someone who has lined their pockets with gold by winning personal injury lawsuits - that and divorce law are the legal equivalent of proctology.

Presidential candidate - Athlete of the Year.  These are the role models the media cannot get enough of?  You have got to be kidding, oh but you aren't.  What in the hell is going on?  Are people now more concerned with texting while driving, sexting (a felony in many states), public urination (oh those sexual predators), verbal "hate" crimes than they are with public figures who constantly lie, misuse public funds (investigation still ongoing), give false testimony, mislead the public (their cash cow), break vows and exhibit other less than savory behavioral characteristics.

My how times have changed.  If that's the change from our lives total capital -
you can keep it.
