Richard Mellon Scaife, billionaire media mogul who financed the never ending effort to bring down Bill Clinton for adultery, is getting divorced from his second wife, Ritchie. The reason? She caught him having an affair.
Not the first time either, since Scaife was seeing Ritchie for years in the 80s, while still married to his first wife.
In the past few years, Scaife has had his wife arrested for tresspassing at their house, and then had her arrested after as scuffle over ownership of their pet labrador retriever.
This is the guy who brought you The Arkansas Project, dolling out money to anyone who would alledge an affair with President Clinton. He was the financier of the "Great Conservative Conspiracy of which Hillary Clinton spoke.

The Republicans have given us Larry Craig and his "bad, naughty boy" comments about Clinton while he was tapping his toes outside toilet stalls; Newt Gingrich leading the charge for impeachment while he himself was having an extramarital affair; political advisor Dick Morris leading the "family values" brigade while he was paying protitutes to walk him around on a leash and lick their toes.
Richard Mellon Scaife - yet another one on the list.

Ruth, Mr Scaife is every bit a politician. He runs a newspaper chain to put conservative ideas into the public realm. He finances political operations to torpedo democrats. He puts himself in the political arena by his actions.

Harryd - it is interesting that Republicans who attack the action are all to often engaged in the same action they are attacking.

Scaife is also mentally unstable, he sent a reporter to investigate a possible Soviet invasion that was going on in a near by forest. Scaife supposedly declared that all the people the reporter talked to and had no idea what he was going on about must have been in on it.
Scaife has also been accused of "Vince Fostering" a political opponent, Steve Kangas.
Ironic, no?

historical relatives values. females have been usually in charge of the enjoyed ones and elevating the little ones. they're against gay couples because of the fact a relatives is "meant" to be a father, mom, and young little ones. no longer 2 fathers or 2 mothers. i could wager that it began in early biblical circumstances, while they first got here up with the anti homosexuality element. however the females elevating the little ones and stuff became probably considering waaaaaaay returned in historic previous.

Don't understand Americans and their preoccupation with sex.
People like to get freaky, nothing wrong or immoral about it.
It's silly that people care that Clinton got head from a chubby intern, just as silly that people care about Larry Craig liking the fellas or this dude cheating on his wife.
Human nature is a funny thing.

The fact is, who cares. The oter fact is, Clinton is having sex in the WHITE HOUSE with an intern 30 years his junior. Great judgement on his jpart. Clinton's do nothng attitude about teh growing terrorist threat in the 90's had a lot to do with 9/11 happening in the first place.

I suggest we stick with politicians in our mud-search. Unless the Liberals intend to scrutinize their own party equally.
The Lewinski scandal involved the oval office. Lest we forget.
Human beings come in all behaviors. I don't appreciate being condemned along with these kinds of men and I do not live in this manner nor associate with anyone who does.
I've rubbed shoulders with plenty of Republican Congressmen lately. I've met their wives and heard them speak of their children.
I don't know what goes on behind people's closed doors, and I'd like to keep it that way.

It's very revealing that liberals will only attack the hypocracy, repeat, the hypocracy of conservatives who engage in such behavior, but they will never ever attack the behavior itself, for fear of alienating Democrats, who feel that any behavior whatsoever, gay sex, abortion, promiscuity and infidelity are perfectly OK and criticizing such behavior is strictly taboo.

This borders on gossip. Are we suppose to take sides in the upcoming divorce proceedings, or what?
