Normally I say whatever someone does in his/ her bedroom shouldn't matter to us, but then when you are a partof the party that declares itself the moral majority etc, there is an element of hypocracy when you don't adhere to your party's own guidelines. More to the point these accusations are as yet unsubstantiated. Given his documented history of treatment of other people, however, I would be more inclined to speculate on an abuse history...
To the point, I believe this will get very contentious in congress and we may begin to see some moderate republicans break party lines and vote against him.
I don't even know what shrub was trying to do with this nomination anyway except further distance the US from the UN and continue to attempt to marginalize the UN. Sadly I fear our standing with the world community will take another hit. Also, considering he's a lawyer, does anyone else find him decidedly ineloquent? Speaking of eloquent, Host, I feel you do a small disservice to Obama when you allude to the allegations against his opponent; while they had an effect, he won by a considerable margin, and is a decidedly eloquent and charasmatic individual.
