Marc Dann needs to be fired.
NOT just resign. They need to fire his ass on the spot. He should have been thrown out with the other trash in his office.
For those of you reading who don't know who Dann is, he's our Attorney General for the State of Ohio. I voted for him...and up until a month ago I thought he was doing a great job in office. He ran on a platform of cleaning up government and getting rid of corruption in office.
I guess he didn't consider sexual harrassment in the office, an unhealthy work environment, lying under oath, cheating on his wife with an employee, using the taxpayers money to fund his affair and his three best friend's affairs, and repairing damages to State vehicles incurred by his drunken friend...to be corruption in government.
As you can imagine, I didn't have much tolerance for cheating husbands before mine cheated on me. Now I have less than zero tolerance. And this man reminds me of my ex in the fact that he blames "going through a rough time with his wife" as the reason he was fucking his assistant. In other words...Oops, I tripped over my midlife crisis and landed on a pair of boobs that weren't my wife's. What a dick.
Dann says he wasn't aware of what his top 3 administrators (his long term best friends, mind you) were doing yet I can tell you with 100% certainty that if one of my best friends was having an affair, I'd know it. Unless of course, I was busy screwing my scheduler. Whatever.
Regardless...he needs to go. He lied under sworn testimony and then tried to backtrack by saying "Wait, I didn't get to fully answer a question you asked me". Yes you did...you answered with A LIE. You lied to protect your own sorry ass and you lied to protect your friends who were sexually harrassing women in your office. You have proven that you have no integrity, and that you do not belong in an elected official's position.
The person I feel for the most is his wife. I've been there, I know what it's like to find out your husband is screwing someone else. I know what it's like to realize that the vows you took meant absolutely nothing to him. That he's willing to risk everything you have, your future, your life together, your finances, your dreams...everything...just to stick his dick in someone else because he's having a "rough time" at home. I know what it's like to be humiliated in front of family and friends when you find out that everyone knows about his affair but you. I know what it's like to find out that HIS friends went to lunches and dinners and things with him and his whore and then looked you in the eye like nothing was wrong. I know what it's like to read text messages...or hear voice mails...that hurt you so much, you never ever forget them. I have been there. I just thank God it wasn't on a public stage like what she's going through is.
I pray for her, and I pray that 5 minutes after they either force him to resign or impeach him, that she files for divorce and runs for her life. I wish I'd walked away after mine, instead of staying around and trying to prove to him how wrong he was to blow our marriage into bits. There is no fixing this...once it happens, it can never be taken back. You are never the same people as you were before...and I hope and pray for Mrs. Dann and her children, that they will someday be able to put this behind them.
Of course, people ask me how long it took for me to get over and it and I always say....any day now!
