...why it is considered 'abuse' if he is a Catholic priest, but an 'affair' if he is a Democratic politician?

EvolvedKW: Exactly. You don't see the rape of a 14 year old by a Republican minimized and dismissed as an "affair."

Well, for starters Catholic Priests are not married and therefore cannot have affairs. For married Politicians it should be abuse and an affair. If a Politician or anyone else for that matter does this it should be abuse and subject to criminal penalties akin to sexual predators.
When a Priest or other religious leader does this act they should be de-frocked permanently. They should also be subject to criminal penalties as with any other deviant.

Humanity is Inhumane yet.. Dirty politics rule the world, and double standards are every where.. America is fighting and declaring wars for "freedom of nations" though she's supporting Dictatorships in the Mid East... The British came to Africa with the bible and said: "Don't steal.. this is a commandment of the 10.. don't steal a cigarette even" and they stole the whole continent... The terrorist Taliban were called by the US media "freedom fighters" while fighting Russia, and suddenly turned to terrorists when they Fought America...
Biased - Double faced - unjust nation, shame on humanity that it rules the world...

Strictly terminology. Either way, it is against the law in most if not all states in the U.S. Even if the girl or boy is a willing participant, it is considered a form of rape and carries a mandatory prison sentence in most states.

you should say that about muhammed. He had a 7 or 9 yr old. And he is trying to get people saved with his beliefs. I call him the child molesting false prophet.
