Congress has paid out $17M (Probably closer to $30M - $40M with other lawsuits) in Sexual Harassment against our elected "leaders".

Give me a [BLEEP] break...

It is mind numbingly frustrating  that a jackass can scream "law and order" at the top of his lungs everywhere he tries to drum up votes and then act like a little [BLEEP] moaning and complaining and attacking the judge's family when he is held accountable for actually breaking the law. 

That's the double standard you're lost on here. 

All of our elected officials should be held to a higher degree of scrutiny. It's despicable what they get away with and how we're forced to choose between the lesser of the evils between them as candidates so often. 

The fact that so many have this response is downright sad:
"All he did was lie about what he did with $130,000 so it wouldn't look like he paid off a porn star! What's the big deal?" 

It's sad how far we've stooped to wave off this kind of garbage from the people representing us as if it's nothing.  Left, Right, Center, I don't care. 
The standard should be higher for all of us.  Much higher.
