Sick Of The Feet Of Clay

From Fox News: "Sen. John Ensign of Nevada has admitted that he had an extramarital affair with a campaign aide last year -- a revelation that could sabotage the popular conservative's chance at a 2012 bid for the Republican presidential nominee."

Really? Do you think it will do any damage to his campaign? First of all, I wouldn't have supported him in the first place. Second of all, if he'd been a Democrat he more than likely would have been celebrated. As for me, he not only needs to give up any fleeting presidential aspirations, but needs to step down as Senator. I'm sick and tired of the corruption of our elected officials. If I found out that Cornyn or Perry had been involved in something like this I'd be calling for their resignation as well.

Do you people just not get that you, as our elected officials, are supposed to be held to a higher standard? We're not looking for perfection. We're looking for people who understand the value of traditional morals and ethics, people who can representing protecting and supporting the foundations that this nation was built upon. If you can't do that, then please stay home.

I'm sick of you.
