    Nothing says tranquility, wilderness, trees, and marsh quite like a diesel-powered air-conditioned country music-playing piece of earth moving equipment. Moron.

    The "party of God" and "party of family values" strikes yet again.

    But we had millions of working class voters voting GOP because these guys were seen as the party Jesus would back.

    Hilarious, if we did not have to suffer Reagan and the Bushes due to this.

    At least he resigned from *some* head. Sheesh. (If I was going to turn it down, I'd start with that Association also...)

    Watched the press conference. While you can admire this guy's openness, he's a little too open for comfort, almost to the point of being pretty cold and not real.

    Same old story. Guy meets girl. Girl has a problem. Guy tries to help girl with problem. Both are emotional. They become really good friends. He's there to comfort her. They're too close. And, you've cheated.

    Should be a lesson to those who are married to not have a person (of the opposite sex) other than your spouse that you have as your "good friend", that you talk to all the time. Just stupid.

    This is a perfect example of why I don't date women who claim that their "best friends" are from the opposite sex. It might not be a problem in the beginning, but a few years down the line it can come back to bite you in the butt.

    I don't trust that either. He probably would decide in the future to go straight or Bi just for her. When you have two emotional people from the opposite sex crying to each over the phone everyday about their relationships, there is no telling what line they might cross together.

    is there seriously a more idiotic way to try to cover this up? I mean, just disappearing and then telling people that you're hiking is stupid.

    I would take the high road, and say that this isn't a partisan issue, but I have a hard time believing that if a democrat did this, then Republicans would just let it be. He campaigned pretty heavily about "returning to conservative values." He wrote this after the election and the Repubs widespread defeat.

    lol... in the end, this just shows that you don't have to be of a certain party to have a hard time keeping it in your pants.

    Whether D or R, I do not give two *****s about the love life of my elected officials.

    Exactly, again.

    It's two people, extremely emotional, one's hurting, one's there to help. You tell the other person your problem, they say they understand. You get the connection. Before you know it, you do something stupid. It's just a bad idea.

    He should have paid for his mistress to fly to South Carolina. Too dumb to be president.

    i like how this on the front page of cnn and msnbc's websites, but just a side column on foxnews.

    if this were a democrat it would be the opposite. it would be huge front page news on fox, and a side note on msnbc and probably cnn to.

    its all BS. politics sucks.
