While I don't usually comment on politicians, or anyone else for that matter, who are found to be having an extra-marital affair, the story of Senator John Ensign, (R) Nevada, and his affair with staff aid Cindy Hampton will be an exception. I only feel compelled to comment because of the hypocrisy displayed here.

You see, Senator Ensign was a big opponent of the same-sex marriage controversy. He is quoted as saying, "marriage is an extremely important institution in this country and protecting it is, in my mind, worth the extraordinary step of amending our constitution."

Hmm???

It would seem that the good senator was also quite vocal in demanding President Clinton's resignation for what was it??? Oh yea, an extra-marital affair with an aide.

Hmmm???

What's the old saying?? Practice what you preach.

P.S. Senator Ensign says he will not resign from his position of trust as the senator for the good state of Nevada.
