‘Guess That Scandal’ Game!
The New York Times CityRoom blog released this hilarious photo montage of the politicians from the past couple decades who got caught in the midst of sex scandals, all rocking the classic “I f***ed up and got caught” face. The first at top left is obviously our most recently disgraced pol Anthony Weiner, who did not follow our Sexting 101 rules and accidentally tweeted his peen to thousands. However, can you recognize the other five shameful guys?
Let’s play GUESS THAT SCANDAL!
See if you can match the scandal to the name and picture!
The scandal:
1. This governor reportedly spent over $80,000 on high priced prostitutes, including one who has gone on to have a “music career.”
2. This famous democrat had an affair with an intern in his offices, who was given away by a certain blue item of clothing.
3. This representative resigned when allegations surfaced (which he eventually admitted to) regarding him sexually harassing a member of his staff… a young, nubile male member.
4. This very right-wing politician openly called for the resignation of another politician who had an affair, and then was caught having an affair a decade later…with the wife of one of his top aides.
5. This politician was married twice and had two children when he resigned, and at the same time admitted his homosexuality and the fact that he’d been having an affair with his homeland security adviser. He is now working towards becoming a priest.
The politicians:
1. Bill Clinton
2. Eliot Spitzer
3. James McGreevey
4. John Ensign
