California lawmaker Mike Duvall was caught on an open mike bragging about his extramarital escapades and has thankfully resigned from office. He had been stripped him of his committee posts and an ethics probe of his actions was launched after the unintentional audio was released.
"I am deeply saddened that my inappropriate comments have become a major distraction for my colleagues in the Assembly," Duvall said in a written statement Wednesday afternoon. "It would not be fair to my family, my constituents or to my friends on both sides of the aisle to remain in office. Therefore, I have decided to resign."
This asshat is saddened about his inappropriate comments but what about the inappropriate behavior he described? One wonders whether he would ever have been concerned about fairness to his family if he his own words had not revealed his incredibly poor judgment.
