Sex and lies
Anthony Weiner lied about sexting. Gen. David Petraeus lied (by a factor of five!) about the number of "Taliban" captured in Afghanistan. Which one got more media coverage? Oh please, you know you don't have to ask, and the difference in coverage was a lot more than a factor of five! Oh, and which of the two cases of lying has prolonged U.S. involvement in a war, costing hundreds of billions more dollars and hundreds more lives? Obviously you don't have to ask that either.
