Politicians and freedoms

So with the latest politician (the governor of NY) getting caught doing something naughty...I can only wonder what everyone thinks when it comes to the "freedom of expression" or speech, or privacy for those who are supposed to be "representing" our cities, country, etc. It seems that we are seeing more and more get caught in surfing for porn or hiring prostitutes (or messing around with an intern). It's surely been going on for years but they are getting caught more because people are listening in on phone calls, reading our emails, scrutinizing our banking activity. What do you think? Should a politician be able to have a private encounter with a call girl as long as he's doing so on his own time with his own money? For these high end services to even exist, there must be a market and a long list of wealthy clients...

This type of behavior opens up politicians to corruption and bribery to cover up or by association with illegal activities. There is more to the story in the connections that are surfacing and connecting to him. How about his three teenage girls. Our society has become so politically correct that we even question if it is ok for this scum to spend over 8 years and $80,000 while nmarried and raising girls the age of his prostitutes and we wonder if its ok. He was prosecuting people for htis very activity. Man he is gross.nbdmrn
