    Here's an interesting take on infidelity and holding office. Supposedly if a military officer is caught cheating they lose their security clearance. The logic is, someone who is cheating on their wife is 1) not someone to be trusted, 2) is to susceptible to blackmail.

    Would anyone disagree with that? Condit also serves on a committee that is privy to some highly secretive government information; does anyone trust this guy anymore? I know I don’t. If he is willing to LIE and betray the people he loves most, why would anyone believe he wouldn’t do the same to his constituents?

    The Commander in Chief is the top military official. Last I heard, he didn't have to resign.

    I was not arguing the topic, I was mearly making a statement.

    I was just presenting a fact. IMO, yes they should.

    -MrPaige, the question is not if we have discussed this topic, its how many times.

    Condit should resign for a few reasons, even if he didn't kill her.

    The fact that he had a relationship with her, then kept it secret during the first half of the investigation is wrong. Anything he knew could have helped to find her. He owed it to the women and the family to help try to find her. As a role model for our country, he owes that to America.

    Once again, this is assuming he had nothing to do with her disapearence. [​IMG]
