    I find it sad that we treat celebrity gossip as newsworthy. Sure, they’re hypocrites. That’s like telling me touching water will get you wet. What else is new?

      Normally, I agree. But when this sort of thing is uncovered about politicians who constantly bleat about “family values”, it becomes immediately relevant to the public discourse around our state and national politics - specifically, how one particular party has a pattern and practice of extreme hypocrisy and gaslighting.
