Dear Pith Reader, let's play a little game. On the moral turpitude scale of 1 to 10, which of the following is worse: (A) A politician who lies a lot to get himself elected speaker of the state House? (B) A politician who gets drunk and tells a female colleague that he'd pay to see her naked? (C) A politician who's constantly grandstanding as a patriotic God-fearing conservative while renting a condemned shack to college students, refusing to make repairs, threatening to sue them if they break their lease and pumping raw sewage into a storm drain?
