Adultery punishable by life in prison

[dems_rightnow]

Under Michigan law, at least in theory.

"The law states that any sexual penetration "under circumstances involving the commission of any other felony" is 1st-degree criminal sexual conduct. Adultery is still a felony in Michigan but there have been no convictions under the law since 1971."

1. Wow. With that clause, Capitol Hill would be empty in about 5 minutes...

That or they'd nix the law. Hell, they may have to! :wow:

2. Uh, what was the OTHER felony you're claiming Edwards committed?

3. None, adutery is the felony

Penetration in the commission of that felony can trigger the life in prison punishment.

As I said, in theory.....

4. You had to use the word 'penetration', didn't you? Still,

does all this mean Edwards, McCain, and the rest won't be allowed to vote this year? :crazy:

5. Unless there's a DNA test

You have no proof of penetration. Maybe all they indulged in was mutual masturbation. Unlikely, but possible.

6. Do they still cut off your hand for stealing?
