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.

Brain Not Working
I had a thought, or at least I thought I did; but, perhaps I was wrong. I saw that the Catholic Church is now telling it's leadership that they should fully cooperate with the police when they believe one of their own has molested a child. I applaud this and believe it is a good first step. It is about time that believers stopped hiding our mistakes and start correcting them and not worry about what non-believers think.
The head of the International Monetary Fund was arrested in New York for forcing sex on a worker at a hotel. Arrogance is no longer being rewarded in the same way. The man was married and prided himself on being a ladies man. Pride goeth before a fall.
On another note, Mr. Stephen Hawkins spouted out that he thought God was a "fairy tale" believed by people who were afraid of death. I told you he is a douchbag and nothing has changed. Who cares what he thinks God is, I didn't know he had special knowledge. He will, he will know when he dies and we all die. He is an arrogant, vile, little man. Genius doesn't make you right or nice.
He discounts the importance of you. That is not what I say on this blog. YOU MATTER. He says because there is no God and no afterlife that therefore we don't matter. He said our lives our meaningless, his may be, yours and mine are not. YOU MATTER. If you speak to God and are wrong, you are just a series of mechanical experiences deluding itself that it matters. Guess what, you are still right, you exist right now and you feel and you matter. Math is a lie, you exist. Bees fly. You matter and your feelings matter and your experience matters because YOU FEEL IT. Stephen Hawkings is still a douchebag. He believes math is more important that people.
A Note to All Readers
I have to clarify something and I wrote about this long ago. This is my blog and I will write about what I. want, this blog will not be hijacked by anyone. I am solely responsible for what I write and the comments that allow. I choose the subject matter, it is not a forum, it is a blog and it is mine.
If people have issues that they wish to present to the world, this is not the place, they need to use a Forum on something like Above Top Secret or start their own blogs, I highly recommend both; but, the direction, tone and tenor of this blog is mine.
I allow anonymous comments and have only refused a few, I have explained why to the audiance each time. I edit my words and the words of others, it is not a right to post comments, it is a privledge as this is a blog. I have a friend who is an ex-professional poker player, he was upset when the poker sites went down. I showed him how to get on Blogger and create his own, his place to raise his issues. This is a place for me to raise mine.
I have a friend who owns a website, I was kicked off the site for not following the rules and the rule was, it was her site and she made the rules. We are still friends and I think the world of her. I never went back and have not tried to, I know and told her that I would break the rules again and I know which rule I would break. I find it annoying when people attempt to use my bully pulpit as there own, it is not.
