Please don't apply american fundamentalist puritan standards to everyone, please.

Yes, you're right. I don't know why I ever thought raping hotel maids, attempting to rape journalists, or going on trial for pimping would ever reflect badly on a politician [1]

Clearly only a fundamentalist puritan would object to those things. I'm so old fashioned.

1. Those are all allegations. In fact, the whole DSK mess is extremely unclear and the case presented against him is highly suspicious, although it is clear that he is a bit seedy. Some believe it to be a political machination for a number of reasons.

2. One politician's behavior means ALL politicians of that country behave wrongly?
