No Kidding

This is just one of those things that is sad, but obvious:

Republican and Democratic politicians alike have faced charges of sexual misconduct; some have survived, others have foundered.

But the sting is never quite so potent, the irony not nearly so keen as when a self-proclaimed bearer of "traditional family values" finds himself (and it's almost always a "him") accused of engaging in behavior that he has condemned, particularly that of same-sex liaisons.

Read the whole thing.

I wish that we could somehow, some way curb the number of these debacles we have to see year in, year out...
