Joseph L. Bruno, a Republican. Think there might be some incentive to remove the Gov.?

Joe Bruno. Who will likely be indicted for tax fraud stemming from a company he owns getting state contracts.

Just a heads up, group.
I am about 25% sure of this.

Not counting the guy out, but it appears that his affairs occurred during a time when his marriage was going through "a rough patch" (I believe that's the phrase he used) and evidently both he and his wife were taking advantage of the situation.

This will be something that just disappears. It has no legs and will be forgotten. He will be good for the state.

For some reason, I thought that he was messing around with employees, which might be considered unethical behavior.

There is nothing unethical about dating your employee. It is only if you harrass them into it or use it when you break up to make their work life miserable.

How could most people find dates if they couldn't date from the work pool?

Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.
