It is unfortunate that we have ruined this man's career. Cleary, he could have served this country well, at a time when the nation obviously lacks talented and competent politicians. It is most unfortunate; it is a tragedy. Sexual shenanigans are not a novel occurrence among politicians, so it bewilders me how the nation has decided to demonize an act that is not at all an anomaly in the sphere of politics. It is a commonplace in Europe and elsewhere, where they are not stupid enough to villainize potentially talented civil servants. What a tragic loss to this country and its institutions, and what a sign of degeneracy, as if he were the first to commit such an act.
