Oh, say it ain't so, BO!

Pretty much all the chorus line is saying is "hey Doreen, I doubt this is true....and if it is, guess what? It's none of my business."

Those are not "excuses," they're people who think that other folks' are entitled to having certain portions of their private lives remain private...yes, even the President, Tiger Woods, and Bill Clinton. Not everyone is a huge fan of water cooler gossip. Do your job. If you can't keep your $hit in your pants, that's between you and your wife, as long as it's not affecting your job, which a 2004 affair certainly wouldn't, you know, unless someone was going around trying to craft another "pre-set" list of reasons why BO should be hated that have nothing to do with his job performance.

And, since you cherry pick one sentence out of my post to respond to, I'll add another sentence that was in my post as to why I think it's different for Obama:

<<I'll readily admit that what goes on in marriages is strictly between the spouses. But somehow someway I have it in my head that men and women seeking public endorsement to an office of TRUST should be held to the light of a heavier candle.>>

And, the pre-set excuse of yours and others is - what goes on between a man and a woman in marriage is no one's business but their own (or words to that effect). You're giving Obama a pass on the chance this story may be proven to be true.
