“Before people start gloating in the comments about the GOP having a spate of high-profile stupid adulterous politicians, two names for you: John Edwards. Elliot Spitzer. Yes, people, thinking with your dick is a bipartisan activity.”

Uh John,
Perhaps it is because the Republicans tout themselves as the party of “F*A*M*I*L*Y* V*A*L*U*E*S*

There is a very simple reason why disgraced politicians should immediately resign no matter what the offense, or the talent they may possess which could benefit society: in this partisan, acrimonious, political environment in which we currently live, and at this point in time in our nation’s evolution, any elected official needs as much support from his constituency which he or she can gather. After the offense, that support base will undoubtedly diminish, and render their service less effective. As for resignation, you might check out this.

@not_scottbot:

Bisexual would definitely be the wrong word >.> Perhaps “unisex activity”?

‘Yes, people, thinking with your dick is a bipartisan activity.’

I don’t think ‘bisexual activity’ solves the problem here – because many partisans are simply dickless, even before becoming partisans. I assume you are trying to include women in this, since a number of people don’t accept the idea that sex is an exclusively male province.

wendynyc @108 – if you end your sentence at the first comma, I think you will see the problem.

@ Craig Ranapia: guess I’m confused. The chief law enforcement official of the U.S. is the AG. Plus, I’m all for people lying, under oath even, when they’re asked about their sex lives. Now
“I’m one of these cranks for whom being an adulterous, hypocritical douche-nozzle is not an impeachable offence. (That’s a matter for the wronged party to apply the not-at-all loving mallet of marital correction as they see fit.)”
I can certainly agree with.

Hypocrisy: the universal pastime. Let all the perfect people step up and take their place on the throne of earth and I will bow down. Where is the grace?

On another website it was suggested this would be a great time for some schadenfreude pie (JS was quoted). Now, if we had pie for every sex scandal we would be a) spherical and b) sick of pie, which is a terrible state.

So, John, may we have some new baked goods? Perhaps some kind of layer cake where the number of layers indicated the level of strange? Standford is one, Spitzer is 2, foot-tapper is 3 and that poor guy who died in his wetsuits would be 2-tiered?

My favorite part is that Fox ‘erred’ and made the man a democrat:
