Well, the prudes at the New York Times have now warned us of the evils of securing a sexually attractive partner in life:
...

Also, what the fuck does this have to do with his politics?

Personally I feel that having an attractive sexual partner is positive indicator of a person's successes not a negative one.

Didn't actually read it, did you?

Especially not where the deragatory comments were coming from other Republicans...

On a morning cable news show last month, Joe Scarborough, the commentator and former Republican congressman from Florida, compared Mrs. Thompson to a stripper.

Mr. Thompson's supporters, on their Web site draftthompson08.blogspot.com, put it this way: "It couldn't hurt diplomatic relations to have a smart, pretty blonde as first lady."

But that comment was quickly attacked. One writer described the May-December marriage as "gross," while others said Mrs. Thompson was an outright liability.

There are also positive coments from other people, too. Overall, it is a serious article addressing a serious issue..

That a successful politician has a wife 25 years younger than he is a "serious issue"

ROTFLOL

No, the fact that some right-wing radio hosts and bloggers are criticizing him over it is the issue. Is it too much to ask that you read the article before rotfing? I realize that it's difficult to click a link, and clearly beyond loudog's powers, but just maybe you could try every now and then?

I'm sorry dude, all that proves to me is they are not worthy of being taken seriosuly either.

I was under the impression it was the LEFT wing NYTs that posted the article.

I did, NYT was in on it too, so?

could be, maybe, if it was worth the bother, after having done so this time I see it was not and my initial judgement was correct.

Yes some silly-billy "right-wing" idiots said ugly things about Mrs Thomson, as did so jackass left-wing idiots. Too bad Senator Thompson is not Andrew Jackson and this is not the early 19th century as far as what they deserve goes.

(History lesson, Andy J. killed at least one man in a duel who insulted his wife publicly)

Stop trying to enslave me, you fucking Marxist. And don't try telling me that you aren't a Marxist. Just look at you with your thoughtful visage. It's clear that you self-identify as a Marxist.

Look at Zarth. That's an enslaving stare right there.

What I want to know is why all the new sites say she's forty, but no one seems to know her birthday, and other sites say she was 29 when they got married five years ago. Hmmn.
