Very sporadic left-wing hackery from the world's laziest blogger

Matrimonial Bliss

I just couldn't pass this up.

Being so new, I don't do much for amplification, but any opportunity to expose right-wing "Christian" family values as hypocritical piffle I will gladly take, ineffectual or no.

Just to make this clear, I could really care less about the marriage and divorce habits of political figures. I don't consider it my business. If Rudy, Newt, Tommy and Johnny want to plaster their clammy, doughy, pallid bodies onto consenting, nubile Young Republican starlets, or fill their empty husks with new, improved trophy wives, well, that's their own affair. They're hardly alone in that.

But, no one should ever forget the unbelievable waste of time, money and energy that was the Clinton impeachment and the Republicans' relentless pursuit of the wayward penis. It would be nice if the "liberal" media would hold Republican leaders' feet to the fire over the way they so easily cast off inconvenient spouses with the same kind of zeal they covered the Clenis. In fact, you would think that might have come up more, considering how generally well known this information is. But, not really.

I, for one, am more interested in seeing how Christian conservatives vote in these elections, considering there is no one even remotely on the same page with their worldview religiously. Will they stay home? Or will they exercise their famous proclivity for compartmentalized thinking and vote for someone in large numbers? Given the way they equate conflict in the Middle East with the End Times, chest-beating big-dickery and clash-of-cultures puffery may trump all.
