You're on your own, bro

In the latest politician-screws-around-and-gets-caught story, this one involving Handsome John Ensign, a Nevada senator, there was one breath of fresh air.

He came out to admit his affair with a staffer (or a staffer's wife, or maybe they were both staffers) without the most important appendage for these press conferences.

His wife. Nowhere to be found. Hallelujah! No wife, embarrassed and ashamed (why the hell should she be ashamed?) standing by her man. Nuh-uh. His wife stayed home and saved herself the photo op of the year.

Good for you, Smart Wife.

If he's determined to go down the tubes, it's good that you don't let him take you down with him.

By your silence we shall know you. And we like you already. Finally, a woman who said, "You're on your own, bro."

  1. Ensign and Gibbions are cut from the same cloth, both are womanizers. The only reason Ensign came out about the affair with his campaign staffer was because her husband threatened to out him. I'm sure this isn't the first time the Senator has strayed. And it probably won't be the last.

  3. Kind of a dirtbag.

    There goes another presidential frontrunner for the GOP.
