Presidential fidelity scorecard
As far as I know...

Roosevelt: Affair
Truman: Don't Know
Eisenhower: Affair
JFK: God Lord... don't even go there.
Johnson: Affair
Nixon: Probably not. Not a very sexual being
Ford: Don't Know. Willing to believe the best
Carter: Unlikely.
Reagan: Definitely cheated on first wife. (And only divorced President)
Bush: Sex with Mexican prostitutes under 15... does that count? Kept women stashed in several cities simultaneously in the 1960s.
Clinton: Affairs, but nothing like Bush and JFK.
Chimperor: Don't Know. (See Nixon... I wouldn't be surprised if W isn't very sexual. Mental age of about 8.)

2. Don't forget about Poland
...or the Ambassador to Poland. Don't remember the guy's name off hand, but he and the Chimp were said to be very close.

(DISCLAIMER: Chimpy is a vile criminal dumbass piece of shit, regardless of sexual orientation. So I'm not bringing up allegations of a gay relationship to slander gays.)

3. I considered that, but it's not in the 'known' category yet... at least in my mind.
Partly because it would make me think better of W, not worse. At least it would be human. I don't give Nixon much credit for probably/maybe being faithful because he was such a mutant he probably wasn't even tempted.

4. Truman, Ford, Carter: I think definitely not. Betty and Rosalynn were hot, hot, hot. Photos here.
As for Bess? Harry really loved her. Actually, one of the great, underrated love stories of the 20th century. Here are photos of all three as young women. Pretty easy to tell who's who.

13. I just liked the pics. No, they cheat because they fear death.
Per Moonstruck, of course.

7. Not infidelity, though. (I consider 1,000,000 post-natel Iraqis of more import than one fetus)

8. I don't know about Clinton's being "nothing like Bush & JFK"
I think he is right up there with them.


Agree about the boy Chimp.

9. Nah, not even close.
Clinton is a conflicted needy type of cheater, and not even very good at it.

JFK was known to have sex with more women in one night than Clinton probably did during his entire presidency.

JFK and Bush were real users... hard core recreational fuckers who thought of a woman as just something you ordered up, like calling Domino's.

10. As far as Reagan goes, despite his flaws, he did seem to love Nancy very much
Edited on Fri Aug-08-08 06:52 PM by galaxy21
so you can probably put him in the unlikely column.

I heard Ladybird once caught LBJ at it with his mistress in the oval office once. So that room gets a lot of action.

JFK sounds like a sex addict to me, (he once said he needed 3 women a day to be satisfied) so it might not be totally his fault. I was also shocked to hear he was rumoured to have banged Audrey Hepburn (everyone knows about Marilyn, but that one was a suprise).

Didn't Monica say Bill told her he had had literally hundreds of affairs prior to deciding to clean up his act when he hit 40?

14. The childish desire for our leaders
to be super human and above temptation is silly and at least somewhat dangerous. We pass over one flaw to get to a host of others.

Incompetent has proven to be much worse than dishonesty in public officials. A dimwit can screw up the best intentions and somebody with even the worst ideas can at least implement them effectively.

16. I always felt a bit bad for Bill
Its obvious he loves Hillary very much, but he has...compulsions. Gerald Ford apparantly urged him to get help for his sex addiction once.

JFK and Jackie were a great love story as well but most can't really get past the fact he was banging every woman with a pulse, and see that as evidence he didn't love her or it was a passionless marraige.

17. What about Washington?
I understand those wooden teeth were the result of Martha having knocked out the originals after finding him in the livery stable with a milkmaid.

:rofl:
