Infidelity in government leadership

Why do we have government leaders? How did they get to their office? What job did we give them? How well are they doing at that job? I don't ever recall us asking any of them in advance any of these questions:
1. Are they going to commit adultery?
2. Who are they having sex with?
3. What's their sexual preference?
4. Are they into group sex?

And so on. Do you ask yourself these questions? Why does the American media sensationalize infidelity of government and military leaders? They are in their job titles because we put them there to do a job. Why does that seem to get lost when the media gets wind of what they think should be an issue? Any takers in my question? My guess is that as a society built on what are suppose to be Christian values we are very hypocritical. We rarely let the media down in the category of judgment. So regular they can the gauge how much their sales will boost if they run the story. Even if they aren't first. Like piranha they have a feeding frenzy and destroy anything good that person has done.

Why is it news worthy anyway? I believe that we should only be concerned with how they do the job we gave them to do The rest are life choices that we should not even be involved in. An argument is that they are leaders and role models to our children. Why are the role models for our children people we haven't even met? Why aren't we the role models for our children? Maybe we have too many faults of our own to be a good role model Maybe thats the fascination with leaders falling from grace That we get to see them not being as perfect as we thought? Maybe we feel better about ourselves when we see it. It lessens our own faults in some pathetic way.... Just saying.

You have to decide for yourself what it is for you or if you're just as disgusted with it as I am. Good luck.
