Odd ABC News Oversight ?

ABC did a little article on politicians who have led double lives.

It seems they forgot one… or at least there seems to be one politician who has affairs that is missing…

Not that huge of a deal but it is kind of odd to me.

    They even titled it “The Top Eight Politicians Who Led Double Lives”. Funny that guy couldn’t make the top eight.

    After watching Newt’s response to the question posed about his second wife at the start of the CNN debate, I thought that at least reporters and news organizations remained independent and could ask our country’s leaders (and potential leaders) difficult questions. Of course Newt isn’t going to like the question, but the fact of the matter is that there is this allegation out there and he needs to respond to it. Not that I liked Newt’s attack on the media, but for what he needed to accomplish for himself, his answer was sheer genius. But at least we had news organizations (at least some) who would still try to suss out the truth and not be intimidated by politicians. This change in ABC shows that the OWS supporters are proving to be right. If you have money and power, the rest of Americans be dam*ed.

    One?

    Would that one be Clinton, JFK, Ike or FDR?

    Get real, we’re dealing with a bunch of alpha males who have women throwing themselves at them regularly, there all going to have a little nookie on the side. As long as they are discreet about it, do a decent job and don’t run on a holier than thou family values platform, I don’t care, I’ll vote for them.

    Well I was looking at Clinton since he was fairly recent.

    Is this a April fool’s joke on ABC’s part?
    Clinton, for sure, deserves a top spot.

  6. StockBoyLA says:

    I would say both Clinton and Newt. Top ten.

  7. PATRICK EDABURN, Assistant Editor says:

    Well since the article was tied to the Newt articles I’m not sure he had to be listed but either way its odd

  8. dduck says:

    How about that NJ Gov., that’s a big one.

    Well, at least none of the 20th century jerks put the mother of their child in an insane asylum – as far as we know.

    And none of the 18th and 19th century Presidents were impeached for covering up a sexual peccadillo; so are we going forward or backward? Sometimes it’s hard to tell.
