Redefining Innocence

Another month and another sex scandal. Another family stands in the shadow of marital ruins because another generic self centered politician hyped up on testosterone and immortality did not have the self restraint to keep another penis from taking a walk.

I was comforted to find out after listening to his public statement that Governor Sanford's indiscretions began innocently, as if brakes can never be applied once an accelerator has been stepped on in good faith. We might as well blame this whole mess on inertia.

Enjoy your fame Mr. Sanford. You deserve it, though your family does not.
