    Baron must me very disappointed in the VP nominee. He sounds like a puritanical square.

    Wonder if this came up in tv vetting process.

    It's not the sex, it's the perjurer. Baron's OK with perjury if the perjurer has the right philosophy. Same is true when it comes to sexual harassment ...

    His running mate may not have been pulling for resignation, but I guarantee she wanted to do something far more severe.

    Baron, are you saying some kinds of perjury are OK?

    Point to Buck. I guess I was thinking the GOP was in try anything short of running a strotng candidate to get into the Governor's Mansion, with impeachment as the template.

    OK? No. But there are some kinds of perjury that are more serious than others.

    Perjury about an actual crime? Sure. Perjury about duties related to the office of president? Yep. Perjury about lying about one's sex life. Not really. Roughly the level of jaywalking.

    Says the guy who is OK with plagiarism and cheating on tests, since you're OK with having students who cheat on their significant other attend your class.

    Unfortunately, a lot of people under oath in front of me treat the threat of perjury the same as jaywalking (although most take the oath seriously enough that they will point the finger at someone else rather than take the bullet themselves.)

    It's been several days already. I gave you 10 major reasons why Republicans suck. Now do Democrats.

    From your own story:

    "In the years since then, Kaine has spoken favorably of Bill Clinton. In a 2008 interview on CNN—when he was stumping for Barack Obama, who he endorsed in the Democratic primary—he was positive about the former president’s legacy, saying he “got us out of a malaise.”"

    Yeah, he really sounds like he wanted Bill gone.
