Bipartisanship

Given the recent announcement that South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford was AWOL in Argentina with his lover, and given that I laugh at the double-standards of both Republicans and Democrats, I wasn’t shocked with all the sanctimonious moralism being espoused on The Huffington Post following Sanford’s admission of infidelity. It was akin to the Republicans crying foul after Bill Clinton’s cigar smoking session with Monica Lewinsky in the Oval Office while he was in the White House.

As such, it’s time to play The American Philosophy Company’s online game Name That Politician!. This is a matching game in which you can draw an imaginary line on your computer screen with your finger, from either choice (A.) or choice (B.) to the correct photograph. There’s no right or wrong answer to this game because it simply depends on your political party affiliation.


(A.) This man is a bad man. He lied to his wife and his constituents by carrying out an affair. Infidelity is immoral, and this man is truly despicable. He should hang his head in shame.

(B.) This man is a good man who had a moment of weakness. In fact, this weakness was brought about by a seductive vixen who preyed upon a poor man who sometimes thinks with his penis. We must cut him some slack and realize that everyone makes mistakes.

Did you win? Of course you did!
