There is a situation here with the mayor of a large city in our state...

It is quite a deal and involved, but it appears that there has been a long history of partying and such at the mayor's mansion.

However, the major deal seems to be this...from the Associated Press...

"In a trial over a lawsuit against the city brought by two police officers who said they were wrongfully fired (they were investigating money matters and more), (the mayor and his former top aide) denied under oath that they had been romantically involved."

The crux is that sexually explicit text messages have been made quite public, showing that at the time they were testifying, they were deeply involved sexually. The transcripts have been shown and read repeatedly on radio, tv, and in newspapers.

The prosecutor is "deciding whether to charge (them) with perjury."

Seems to me it's a no-brainer...if they lied under oath, that's a crime.

On top of all of that, city funds were used, it appears, for hush money purposes, and deals under the table have been...and possibly much more...every day it seems there is a new development.

But through it all, the man stands strong that this is between he and his wife, and he refuses to resign, calling it, "lynch-mob tactics."

It's ridiculous...there has to be accountability for sin, regardless of who it is in...president, governor, mayor...whomever it may be.
