Not as long as they keep trying to step all over mine.

As long as they are not lying and cheating and being total hypocrites they are.

Yes. In some respect. I believe they should be able to attend school functions and have family life without interruption. But politically no

yes :+)

Of course +3

Yes ... so long as it does not effect their work

And deprive us of wacky sex stories? I thought that was on the application...

To an extent; but if they chose to be in the public sector, it should be limited to the time they are not working.

As far as the media was concerned, they kissed their chance goodbye when they got important. But I think that there are certain things that should be kept private.
by N I C K on November 22nd, 2009
not if they're keeping something private that we wouldn't approve of, like receiving oral sex from an intern.
by adamjohn on May 20th, 2010
Of course they do.

Yes, unless they are trying to legislate morality. Then all bets are off.
Once you start preaching "family values" and attempting through statute to impose your professed values on others...then it is all fair game, public and private.
Talk the talk then you better walk the walk.

Yes. We should stay out of people's privates

If they continue to insist that we be judged by a certain level of government intrusion, then they have no right to complain about private intrusion.

Yep, but not as private as the rest of us. All choices have consequences & that one price they have to pay.

No. Politicians constantly aggrandize themselves by making references to their public service. The key word there is public. Of all people on earth, those bozos should be under scrupulous scrutiny.
Will the black mark of Gitmo ever be obliterated from the American story or is it a stain we shall never eradicate?

Who is going to ask Weiner to resign? To do that, the politician must not have any skeltons in his/her closet. Loll Ain't none or very few.
