Why Promote Immorality

There has been quite a lot in the media about Arnold Schwarzenegger's adulterous affair while he was married to Maria Shriver. The news has focues on how it might affect his career, how well Maria is handling it, how it is hard on his kids and whether or not he may have used his job as Governor to assist his mistress. There have been others who have chosen to justify adultery. Yep.

An article in the LA Weekly basically says that men cheat and biologically must spread the wealth. There is another article in a differant publication that says that monogamy is unreasonable.

The LA Weekly article says that "Powerful Men Screw Around", it then proceeds to say that Arnold's real failing was not keeping his campaign promises. The author states that this is not so in Europe. We all know about the former head of the International Monetary Fund being arrested for attempted rape, it turns out tha the proudly was known as a adulterer, it is more accepted in Europe and Latin America we are told. Accepted, by whom, not the wives, tolerated.

Do the husbands accept their wives cheating on them, would Arnold accept Maria cheating on him and having kids for him to take care of that were not his? I don't think so. Adulterers never accept being cheated on, they have a double standard, they want to have their cake and eat it too; but, that is not the point of this post, noooooooo.

I was talking to a Union Steward and complaining that the unions should not give contributions to politicians because if they take it then they are compromised and you should never vote for someone who would take it. Arnold is a liar, he lied to his wife, to his children and the public, the fact that it was about his cheating changes nothing, liars are liars. If he is corrupt to that degree then he is corrupt in other areas. We are not talking about his telling his wife that she doesn't look fat in that dress (and she of course does not look fat in anything, just an example). No, he is corrupt, not mistaken, not confused, corrupt. He knew exactly what he was doing and kept doing it.

Bill Clinton was the same way except people accepted it. They liked how the economy was doing; but, he was no more trustworthy. If you vote for people who you know lack morals then you get immoral politicians. They are open to blackmail and corruption. People complain about Obama or Bush; but, we knew they were liars, some people thought they would be truthful in other arenas.

When you say that you understand that a Politician has to lie to get elected then you have said he can lie AFTER he is elected, he doesn't have to keep his campaign promises because you knew he was a liar. Vote for integrity and you will get it, vote for anything else and you will get corruption. Politicians by and large try to give the cookie that will get them re-elected, we know this. If we vote for them for the cookie and ignore all else, they will ignore all else also.

People in aerospace will vote for conservatives because they believe they will spend more on the military and planes and satellites. That is the wrong reason.
