Yet another news story -- ad nausea -- this week about a politician behaving badly. Once the obvious jokes die down, he can line up behind our former president, several former governors, a former presidential candidate and, don't forget, the former House speaker who was motivated out of patriotism.
These scandals are becoming so common there should be a nationally televised competition for Cad of the Year. Contestants earn points for the event itself. Originality counts. Remember, the intern, the housekeeper, the high-priced call girl and the South American mistress have already been done so get creative. Score points for the press conference that most humiliates the suffering wife. Additional points for best denial. Bonus points if tears -- yours -- are shed.
Contestants show their talent for lying, covering up and back-pedaling.
Who would judge the pageant? Women every where a la American Idol.
Who would sponsor such a pageant? I'm thinkin' Viagra -- or does that send the wrong message?
