William Bertel (Edison) - Sex Lives of Politicians?
Bill Clinton. Eliot Spitzer. Mark Sanford. What do these three politicians have in common? They all admitted to having extramarital affairs. Bill Clinton’s political career seems to have recovered. Eliot Spitzer and Mark Sanford ended up resigning. Does who these government officials have sex with necessarily affect their performance of the job that they were elected to do? Not necessarily. Why, then, do we make such a big deal when something comes out about their sex lives? I believe that it is our culture’s fascination with celebrity and celebrity scandals. We are so quick to judge other people because, for a moment, we forget about our own problems as we watch someone else experience their own.
