Picture of the Day - 2

















I really feel for this woman. She's just had the worst day of her life, and then she has to go stand next to the man on national TV.

Unlike alot of these photos, she looks like she just heard about it today.

  • But he's wearing a massive flag lapel-pin, so he's got that goin' for him.

    I just don't get these guys. I mean, it's like there's something sociopathically wrong with them. Forget the damaged career, think about what this does to your family. And, like, as a major figure in American politics you're not already walking around with a target on your back, to entertain prostitutes....!?

    My sympathies go to his wife and three teen-aged daughters.

  • I don't get it either.

    And in my book, prostitute is way worse than affair.

  • They think they're above ordinary mortals epm. I do feel sorry for his wife.

  • Yeah... about his wife. What's up with her standing by him at his press conference. My wife would be holding her own presser while she simultaneously reloads...

    It's a whole different paradigm. I guess.

  • Some women are more forgiving than others. My own wife forgave me, more or less, after I went off the rails. A wonderful woman she is.

  • I'm stepping out of this.

    Being single by choice, I don't really feel too qualified to talk about this.

  • Jeez, does no one feel any sympathy for horny politicians? It has to be very frustrating--just when you get powerful enough that you can have lots of women, it becomes too dangerous to have them.

  • with a face like that, I bet he's had to buy a lot of "personal introduction services"...
