China replaces finance minister amid sex scandal rumours |
hehe, this actually helps my case.
There was very little press attention. Nobody cared. He resigned because of rumors, not because the public was in outrage. Give me an "Elliot Spitzer" and you have a case. Where the populous actually cared.
He resigned two years before he was meant to retire, the Communist party thought that even the small foot note of a sex scandal wasn't worth the extra two years, especially when the uptight west was coming to visit in a year.

So in other words, point negated. It turns out that America is NOT the only country where people flip out about sex scandals.

The country flipped out? A high profile politician is forgotten within days on a sex scandal. No book tour, no cameras. The world never revolved around this. It did not dominate a news cycle. It was not front line news. Again, give me something like this Wright scandal and I'll concede.

Quote by: chancellor Oh, and by the way, Rev. Hagee isn't McCain's pastor. He's a crony of the religious right to whom McCain is pandering. |
I know, I fixed it.
But McCain has yet to disown Hagee. Obama has disowned his paster.
Again, this isn't the mud fight I want to get into, but there is a bit of a double standard in the public's eye. I just want them to focus on the issues and not this crap.
