The Public Cares If a Candidate Cheats [INFOGRAPHIC]

SodaHead Infographics 2011/12/08 23:00:00
Last week, we asked SodaHeads what they thought about candidates who cheat on their spouses. Herman Cain's cheating accusations didn't seem to have much of an impact on his campaign in the polls, but it quickly spiraled out of control when the public refused to let it go. Now, it's cost him his candidacy.

Earlier this year, [former] Rep. Anthony Weiner resigned from his position over a cheating scandal, and before the jokes had a chance to go limp, news of Arnold Schwarzenegger's love child got out. It's not an uncommon occurrence, and it's important that voters are able to assess what this means for their country, and how -- if at all -- it will affect their vote.

    If a Democrat cheats and becomes president, he tells every little school child that oral sex is okay and it's not really sex. He redefines sex and starts the largest downhill movement in sexual behavior, just to make what he did seem okay. If a Republican tells a woman she's pretty, he has committed one of the most heinous crimes against humanity possible. He is shamed publicly on all of the major news networks and is forced to abandon his bid for office.

    I care because if they are willing to cheat on their spouse, i'm sure they'd be more than willing to cheat us.

    You forget, in the beginning we were naked and barefoot and willing to serve driven by chemistry and instinct in the Garden with nothing to gossip about. Touching and exploring and feeding each other in the midst of the Angels the only two people on Earth. Shoes and Shops did not become necessary until after we got kicked out for disobedience and knowing our nakedness.

    Hmmm, now who was responsible for getting them kicked out because she just couldn't control her desire to get all touchy feely with the ONE fruit in the garden that God said to stay away from?

    Better quit while you're behind. We both know what the Bible says about the whole situation.

    (But I agree with you, just having some fun because my brain is fried and need a diversion on SH to clear up the cobwebs)

    Well, my friend, in all honesty it was the male, Satan, who was responsible. The Goddess kicked him out of heaven first then made Adam because she was lonesome. He got jealous and made nice with Adam's woman for spite. Eve was the rib from Adam's side. Adam was responsible for them getting kicked out. He should have handled his business and protected Eve from Satan and obeyed God. Please note, they got kicked out after Adam did the deed, not when Eve did the deed. God created and loved Adam. Eve was created to please Adam. Her acts were inconsequential to God who was looking out for Adam when She created Eve from his rib. Adam was first and God trusted him to take care of Eve and the Garden. He failed. Eve became the mother of the rest of God's Children and bore the pain of it all.

    Satan responsible? Nope.

    Is this delicious, warm, gooey, chocolate volcano infused with a hint of of bourbon, responsible for a person's waistline, or is the person who eats the food responsible for their weight?

    Satan is the cake (can't you just smell the bourbon and vanilla notes as they are slowly empowered by the rich chocolatelly goodnes ), and even though it is tempting, we have to make the choice. Just like Adam and Eve. Unless Satan shoved the fruit down their throats, we have a choice to make.

    "The devil made me do it" doesn't fly.
    ----------
    (But to be fair, in this particular case, I'm blaming the cake. God made me, and he made my genes, and he knows as sure as the sun rises in the east, that there is no way I'm going to let this cake slip through my fingers ... but with everything else, I'll blame myself).

    I get your point even though chocolate cake and strawberries are easily resisted for me. Here's a piece of cake that might work better with your explanation.

    Good point about God not kicking them out until Adam screwed up. We all know how women always get a break in the criminal justice system.

    I think the dead sea scrolls had something about her giving God a cute smile and a wink and saying, "God, please don't kick me out, I am ever so naughty ... have you been working out?". Let's face it, she sweet-talked him.

    No way would a Goddess have fallen for it. If a girl is hot enough, we'll do whatever they want, buy a car, jewelry, marry them, even give them a kidney if need be. We can't help ourselves.

    But women?? Let's face it, you know EXACTLY what you are doing.

    (My compliments to your wit, LOL)

    Or, at least I think I read that somewhere ;)

    I think it is more basic as to responsibility allocations. God made man first and gave him the responsibility of looking out for his woman and God's children. Just like in real life, when we leave our children in the hands of a nanny and something goes wrong, we blame the nanny for not protecting our children and keeping them safe. We do not blame the child because they are inquisitive and require watched and kept safe. Where was Adam when Satan was tempting Eve? Why did Adam not resist after Eve gave in knowing the danger since he was suppose to be the responsible party? according to your cake analysis, It was Adam who should have resisted the Cake and kept him and Eve safe in the Garden. While I agree with you, in order for life to have begun and you and I to have the opportunity to experience it, things had to happen the way they happened. Destiny will prevail no matter how hard we try to make things perfect. Choice is the gift God gave that throws a monkey wrench into our plans every time. LOL, if it were not for choice, we would not exist.

    You left me an opening ... As you wrote, God gave man free will. As such, man (and womyn) are responsible for the consequences of their actions. God did not create little worship robots who take orders and can't think for themselves. Free will is a gift.

    So, if the nanny added a risk factor so that this was inevitable (instead of random accident), then the adults are responsible because they made the decision to add the risk.

    God already made it clear that they could eat anything they wanted to in the garden, except for the fruit of the tree of knowledge.

    It was not DESTINY that they ate it (unless you believe it is destiny that Eve would have screwed up a good thing when they had it, because she just couldn't resist having the ONE thing that God said she shouldn't touch)

    God let them know his expectations. God gave them the choice of doing what their "will" and desire he created in them dictated. The choices they made affected the outcome of their lives which is what I am calling "Destiny". Had they made a different choice, the outcome of their lives would be different.

    In other words, life experiences determine our choices which determine our destiny. Because of free will and free choice, our destiny is the bed we made for ourselves during this life. If we make good choices, we end up with the Creator happy and blessed. If we choose a different path, destiny will cause our flesh to burn by our own choosing.

    With that being said, I think we agree our choices are our own fault which is why the Grace of God is so important to the quality of life we live.

    The real problem, is that GOD IS THE FATHER, and Adam is the son, and Eve was the cheating wife.

    Yes, God is the father of the Universe and all that is in it. And Adam was created by God as a human being to keep God from being lonely. God is love and cared about Adam who he had created to amuse him/herself and loved Adam and felt bad because he was lonely in the Garden so as a gift to Adam, God created Eve from Adam's rib to be his friend; not his wife. God asked the Angel's to look after Adam and Eve and make sure they ate and enjoyed life. Satan was jealous of God's relationship with Man and set out to destroy God's love for Man by tempting Eve who was Adam's playmate. When God found out both Satan (her Angel) and Adam (her child) had betrayed her over Eve (the other Woman) she was hurt and cast them all out of the Garden to bear the Devil's Children.
    After God got over Her/His betrayal, she forgave man kind because they were weak, but did not forgive Satan because he knew better.
    Because mankind got started from Satan's doing, God gave mankind the opportunity to deny Satan and accept Her/Him as their one and only Father and love Her/Him above all other.

    As life evolved, God realized man had Satan's Blood line and could not do right and was going to destroy all of mankind to eliminate the evil on Earth. Loving mankind, however, beyond imagination, God decided to save them from Satan's clutches who wanted to be saved. As a result he transformed himself and was reborn through Mary as his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, so mankind could meet him in the flesh and pledge their love and be saved from Satan's grasps.

    It was Satan that turned Eve out because of his Jealousy of God's Love. It was Satan's children God had to save, not Adams. That is why Eve had to bear them in such pain. Adam was only the "Surrogate" The children of the world come from God the creator and father of us all with an evil twin that belongs to Satan to subdue.

    Our job on Earth is to subdue that evil twin and be one with God to make Her/Him happy. My memories of God see a Female. My memories of Satan see a male. Satan and God fought over Adam, the love of God's life. God loved Adam enough to give him a playmate while She was not around to cure his loneliness. Satan got to her first, introduced her to the tree of carnal knowledge that she shared with Adam after Satan showed her the ropes.

    That is why God was so furious and did what She/He did causing pain in childbirth and only allowing Satan's Children to live so long so that God's child contained in the prison of the body created by man could come home through God's Son Jesus Christ that loved God and denied Satan unlike Eve's Children!

    well that does have to do with the party they represent. media is a big factor but i think a republican cares more of what others think about them. Where as a Democrat has the more "its none of your business" or "its between me and my wife" attitude. (this is just a generalization) either way I will never vote for a president that cheats for one it shows he weak at making decisions (either leave ur or dont cheat in the 1st place) 2 its shows you cant trust his word (but then again you should never trust someones word) 3 the other countries already think were evil sinners (not a religion reference) we dont need are leader supporting this claim
