It's either stupidity or arrogance. So far this year the following federal elected politicans all did something totally stupid:
David Wu (D-OR) for unwanted sexual advances
Anthony Weiner (D-NY) for posting pictures of his "slong" on the internet
Chris Lee (R-NY) for posting pictures of himself on Craigslist and sexual emails to several women using his own name and Congressional email
Mark Souder (R-IN) for having an extra marital affair with a staffer while preaching abstience and family values
Eric Massa (D-NY) for groping male staffers
All these are reasonably intelligent individuals that convinced thousands that they were intelligent, moral and dependable. Either they were so arrogant that their public standing was such that they could do anything they wanted and not get caught or they were VERY stupid.
