Where do you get this stuff, and depending on the county, "banging hookers" is perfectly legal, married or not.
Should you be fired because you regularly get pissed off on your lunch hour by drive through staff?
Again, I am not defending him, but if you want to attack him, attack him on his job performance, not his personal life.

How about reading what I actually posted, instead of making up your own meaning to my words.
"the person that's supposed to be busy running the state" doesn't say "Gibbons". I don't know the specifics about him, other than he's got a reputation for being a tool box, so I was making a general statement about elected officials. My point was that if the person that's elected for a position has a fuck-ton of personal problems, at some point they do become the public's business.
Again, for example: if the president is a crackhead, don't you think that's potentially significant enough for the public to care about?
You argue that a person's personal life shouldn't be factored into their ability to do their job, and I say that's bullshit. Someone may be totally capable at doing the job, but if their personal life is such a wreck that it might affect their job performance, that's info that should be public so we can vote in an informed manner. It's the same reason presidential candidates release their health records.
