What Was He Thinking?

If you had aspirations of becoming the POTUS don’t you think it would be a good idea to keep your dick away from interns?

Some will say it doesn’t matter. Some will say this is just about sex, just like Bill and Monica was only about sex. Well, they’re wrong. On both counts.

Bill & Monica was not about sex. Bill and Monica was about an educated, seemingly intelligent lawyer who lied under oath. You might think that a Rhodes scholar would understand the importance of truth under oath and clearly that he would understand the consequences.

If this story is confirmed it’s going to create another unholy media feeding frenzy that we’ll all be sick of in no time. And the important message and lesson that we should be learning from this will be glazed over. It’s a simple lesson really, but it’ll be lost on us, just as it was when we were first heard about a former Governor of Arkansas and a women name Jennifer Flowers.

Character matters.
