If you had an investment portfolio that was making heaps of money, would you decide to take it elsewhere because the bloke overseeing it had a few affairs? of course not. why not? because someones sex life and someones professional life are two separate things. granted as a oublic fugure you run the rist of people spreading your private laundr around simply because they can, but thats beside the point.

I disagree totally, I would not trust someone with my investment portfolio if they were caught cheating on their wife, if they can lie to her, they can lie to you, i would find someone else,

lol, so if the bloke had been looking after your portfolio for ten years before you found out he was cheating on his wife the whole time, youd change, even though youd been seeing great gains the whole time?
would you give all the money he'd made you back as well, since you don't approve of that behaviour?

[HenryDorsetCase]

I guess it's a difference of how you look at someone.
If you knew someone had had an affair, would you then deduce they are a shit mechanic, and refuse to have your bike serviced by them?

LOL "serviced"

+1 - the real problem for him may be how he paid for the hotel accomodation and frilly nickers.

according to her affidavit (which is a MASTERWORK in how to damn someone by the way - totally worth the time to read) he was not very good at the sex, AND cheaped out on the lingerie he bought her.

You're earning good money, dude, you buy your wife the cheap lingerie and the mistress the expensive stuff. Jeeeez everybody knows that. Plus buy decent champagne AND get some Viagra. Also, manscaping and hit the gym.

Am I the only one who knows this stuff?

The sex don't matter so much but he mixed the two together and fucked up as Mayor, big time! ... Spot the difference!

yep, same goes with my lawyer, accountant, or anyone else i put a heap of trust into, no one is irreplaceable, but trust in someone isn't,

Bring back Banksy, the lizard man!!

He's a motorcyclist you know. Rides a (what else) Harley. Or at least had a picture taken on one.

He's a fucking asshole.

I can catagorically state I've never cheated on a partner and never will, so I can call him a cunt.

So want to give you green for that (no, nothing smutty about what I want to give you) but the embedded vid in the post below is obscuring the bottom part of the bling window. Oh well, it was the thought that counts.

Dipping your wick where it shouldn't be is just a basic animal behaviour. Goes with the survival of the species, Most men have dabbled at some stage ( certainly all have thought about it ), doesn't make them dishonest at their trade.

IHMO one is caught with his fingers in the till (or Kimdotcom) the other gets caught with his dick in his co-worker. Why would anybody want to have any business dealings with people of such low moral character? NZ politics is better off without both of them.

hmm, so, should you be fired everytime you do something at home that your boss doesnt approve of? even if it doesnt have any impact on your ability to do the job you are employed for?
not too far off being the same thing than expecting this guy to resign because he likes asian pussy!

If we excluded all people of "low moral character" because they had affairs we would have bugger all people in Parliament ...

and the problem is?

I read the link to the affidavit, out of curiosity. While it makes for sordid reading, I do have to wonder two things. Firstly, what was the point? ie. what did the publisher feel there was to be gained by it? (regardless of peoples' moral standpoints). Secondly, she obviously wasn't a "young naive person who was under the thumb of a superior" - at 29 (28 at the least) she's hardly a brainless young chicken; she said she said no initially but that she wasn't unwilling; felt the need to comment that the lingerie he bought her was "cheap, I know this because I had to return them to the store as they were the wrong size" etc. It takes two to tango, and I'm picking there is more to the whole sordid mess than meets the eye. Either she's getting something out of it OR the amoral publisher of the affidavit has got some sort of agenda from this issue. I find it hard to accept that she's an innocent victim who had no control over anything.

So this guy would be welcome in Auckland (The City of Semen) then? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-Wal-Mart.html
