It could've been worse, it could've been with an underage intern.

Why did he have to use public money? He really f**ked up in trying to cover it all up.

But again, open relationships are now the clear solution Wink

It's been a while since we've had a good corrupt redneck governor story, so it's refreshing to see one in these uncertain times!

It's still a sex scandal. It has little bearing on the GOP nationwide except to ensure that he does not succeed  Sessions in the Senate.

Congrats to Alabama's first woman governor who wasn't a placeholder puppet.

Should be easy to understand, anyone that forcefully preaches "family values" is usually a POS. If you want family values look for those that actually live it and don't try and shove it down your throat.

That was more than just sex...that was true love

Oh, yes -- hiking on the Appalachian Trail and getting so lost that one gets into Argentina.
