Nevada Sen. John Ensign admits affair with staffer

Left out of the CNN article is the philandering senator's affiliation with the secretive group of would-be theocrats known as The Family. Scary stuff, but apparently even the anointed ultimately have feet of clay...

Sen. John Ensign of Nevada admitted Tuesday an extramarital affair with a woman who had worked for him. "I violated the vows of marriage. It's absolutely the worst thing I've done in my life," the Republican senator said outside his office in Las Vegas. A member of the party's Senate leadership, Ensign last year took over as chairman of the Republican Policy Committee.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
