I'd love to see one of those political wives who are trotted out to stand beside her husband who has been caught in a sex scandal wait until he finishes telling the world how sorry he is and how hard he will work to mend his family's hurt and then...
Give him a hard shove right into the orchestra pit of reporters and photographers.
Not a very Christian attitude, Diane.

It just might be, Larry. Remember all the tables overturned in the temple?

It was wall-to-wall coverage on the Spitzer scandal last night. Dave Letterman always finds comedy material in a sex scandal.
I think that you are quite right in your comment. The man deserves public ridicule because he is such a hypocrite. He publicly fought against prostitution and used call girls.

I don't understand why the spouse in a situation like this (almost always wives it seems) is even willing to stand on the dais during the mea culpa.

She didn't push him, but if looks could kill, Mr. Paterson would already be Governor of New York.
