When public officials betray their office and screw around with common street dirt prostitutes, they end up lowering the standards of all of us. The principal may be a little difficult to support in theory, and that statement may ruffle the feminist feathers. After all, we are supposed to be egalitarian and think that all people are created equally and worth the same no matter who we are or what we do ... but really all I am saying is that our wishful thinking and dreams of a brave new Utopian world are naïve at best and laughable at worst. There is inequality for a reason. Look at what happens when the governor of New York can't keep his python in his pants:

  1. Has sex with a prostitute.
  2. Gets caught.
  3. He crashes and burns in infamy (but he'll be back when everyone's short attention span is exhausted).
  4. She is suddenly the celebrity of the instant (but she'd better hurry, it's that short attention span thing again).
  5. She gets a book deal (no, I am not making that up) and an offer of $1,000,000 to pose nude in Penthouse magazine.
  6. His elected power is supplanted by her populist power.

See how she, a hooker, someone who spreads her legs for money—rents out the use of her genitalia to the highest bidder—is now the celebrity and she can turn it into cold hard cash if she hires the right rep and hurries up about it. The whole moral fabric has just become a little more threadbare. We are now celebrating someone who sells sex instead of being led by someone intent on imposing some vaguely Christian moralistic imperitive on the world.

My opinion for the record: There are no side to take in this; they are both completely dreadful people.
