Dear media, about David and Michelle Patterson ....... mind your own fucking business
They've said they had affairs. They said it was consensual and commonly known between them.

That sounds like a private matter between grownups.

There is no smell of hypocrisy.

So mind your own fucking business. There are no young hookers being used by a Jewish Calvinist.

1. Yeah, this IS their business. They weren't throwing people in
jail for sex.

2. The Patersons were smart...they brought it up right away...not that
there was any reason for them to since, as you note it is their business, but by talking about it right away, I believe it begins and ends the issue right there.

4. And good that they brought it up while the media had the Rev. Wright thing
going full blaze. By the time the WRight stuff dies down, everyone will have forgotten about the Pattersons.

I actually think the Pattersons demonstrate that with courage, marriages can get back on track after a rough patch and that forgiveness and mutual love can overcome a lot. That's the real family values...

also Democracy Now. Don't blame MSM for this.

And worse yet, state funds may have been used. Please be warned.

7. As it stands now - no problem, BUT if state funds
were used than it becomes a BIG, BIG problem!!

In your own bedroom on your own time, then I guess it is okay in this day and age (assuming consenting adults), however mix in use of state funds to pay for a hotel/motel bill for this and now you have crossed the line of misuse of government funds, and that ladies and gentleman is illegal in most states.

Have to see how this shakes out.:shrug:
