If you are a person that is in the media they will find out. DOH!
Not even the possible loss of career, money and reputation keeps these men in-line.
Jon Gosselin of Jon and Kate plus Eight is one of the most famous dad's in America!
His wealth and fame are dependant on his being the best dad in america. But no, he finds time (shockingly) to have an affair with a 26yr old. There are videos of him leaving her house, if you are
famous people will tape what you are doing!Jon getting caught gives me some happiness because they are SUPER religious and belong to the Assemly of God evangelical church. They gave their kids bible action figures http://tiny.cc/JogQy for Christmas. It was so funny and kinda cute to see these little 3 year olds, I'm Moses watch out…
Of course I was sad to watch this happen to John Edwards and really not smart on his part. It's obvious after hearing from about his mistress she was a loose cannon, and whe
n you are running for office they will find your mistress who is living with your exstaff member. It wasn't too hard to connect those dots. DOH!
New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer paid for sex so there was a money trail, Ted Haggard of church who preached monogamy and gays are sinners, slept with escort Mike Jones who eventually did right by his community beause of the negative preaching by Ted Haggard.
Where are they now? Eliot Spitzer says his days are joyless. http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2008/09/so_what_does_eliot_spitzer_rea.html John Edwards career is over and his reputation ruined. Ted Haggard reputedly broke but somewhat "cured" by the therapy his fellow evangalists gave him to knock the sinful gay from him.
I will say this is rare for women to lose their jobs, reputation from sexual activities. Recently country sweetheart LeAnn Rimes was unfaithful but it didn't hurt her, the general attitude is "she married young, and he's HOT!" But entertainment industry careers survive cheating all the time. Jude Law, Robin Williams, Hugh Grant, Woody Allen have all admitted affairs without any career repercussions. Hollywood is not using their morality as a badge so when we discover indiscretions it doesn't surprise. Mel Gibson will be interesting as he's been "mr catholic" and I'm pretty sure adultry and divorce aren't part of a good catholic regimen.
Maybe we just don't have enough women in politics and positions of moral authority to make the same mistakes. Although I somehow think women would use more brain, commen sense, restraint when their career and livelihood were on the line.

I think that women in politics, like mothers of eight, are too damn busy for sex.
agreed!
This Jon and Kate situation reads like a Hollywood movie. The moral of their story: Go back to simpler times--life was probably better before that damn TV deal. He wouldn't have been able to afford the hair plugs that made him look younger to get that co-ed. He would have been seen as a creepy father of 8 hanging around bars if it wasn't for reality-fame. Whatever. The reality show became the job for Jon and they were able to afford a very large house and get speaking gigs on parenting across the country. Perhaps this will rattle them to stay out of my damn TV set forever and stop thinking their parenting skills are worthy of $20 a ticket? Would the cheating John Edwards story have any legs if the wife wasn't writing a book? I don't understand what's happening here. Where's the raw anger and hate for their cheating husbands? And where is the remorse from the cheater?
