[Thruster]

"integrity in NY politics"

Kudos Steve for managing to put these words together in a cogent sentence and not get struck by lightening.

Steve?..... Steve?

I guess that this is now the new norm for married couples in America???

I thought Gov. Paterson's speech before the NY assembly was very well done.

Apparently everyone missed the pun too.

First thing I saw Rip

Apparently he had more than one affair, and his wife also admits to cheating on him during that time period as well.

I saw something like 30-50% married people in America have an affair at some point. When you figure that your typical politician is sleazier than your average person, it's not too surprising.

WOW! I guess i'm in that statistic...I once got both my lovers drunk in the same night...I switched my drink from one hand to the other!

I'll try and find it but I remember seeing a report that showed those numbers to be much higher.
something like 70% for men and 60% for women. With women climbing fast. Up from 45%

Those probably arent the exact numbers but are damn close from what I remember
