Mark Souder Resigns

Indiana congressman Mark Souder resigns after affair with aide comes to light.

So what's new? Another US politician, another affair, another scandal. Makes me wonder, if all the politicians in the world who are having affairs or have had affairs before were to suddenly disappear, how many percent of them will be left? 20%? 30%? 50%? I really don't know. While I do not disagree that, being leaders, they are suppose to set good examples for the people, especially the younger generations, to follow, but as the saying goes, nobody's perfect, can't a person with certain character flaws still make a good leader? Bill Clinton was a good leader and president for the USA!

So, what do you think? Are leaders and politicians suppose to be perfect? Should they be given a second chance? Or, better still, should we just accept their flaws and let them continue in their role as leaders if they have been doing a good job all the while?
