Re: Why are Some Politicians Forgiven in Sex Scandals?

CNN brings us a new look upon political sex scandals and claims that when politicians are caught within them, they generally get off on easy street. They bring to play John Edward's former extramarital affair he had with a campaign worker in the 2008 election. It's thought that it is the American way that when a politician is caught in such a scandal that if they apologize, pay a punishment and suffer along the way they can then be forgiven for their "mistakes."

I've never believed very strongly in forgiveness for those who perform such sexual deviances. Most these politicians caught in sexual scandals have a spouse on whom they must be cheating, and that has always been a very large no-no for me. Cheating is one of the most god awful things you can do to a person in my eyes. And for this writer to say it is the American way to forgive someone for such a thing is clearly mistaken. I'm an American and I hate it!
