Who? None other than Rep. Henry Hyde (R-IL), the guy Gary Bauer and the Family Values crowd want to represent them at the Republican convention.
Apparently when the Republicans were off trying to amend the Constitution they also amended the Ten Commandments to strike that inconvenient little line about adultery. Though, in Hyde's defense, I hear the woman he was boinking on the side wasn't actually his "neighbor."
God bless Salon.com, circa 1998:
"Fred Snodgrass, a 76-year-old Florida retiree, says he gets so upset when he watches Rep. Henry Hyde on TV that 'I nearly jump out of my chair.' Hyde, the Illinois Republican who heads the House Judiciary Committee, is on television often these days. Hyde's committee will decide whether the adulterous affair President Clinton carried on with a White House intern, and his efforts to keep it hidden, should be referred to the House of Representatives for impeachment proceedings. 'I watched [Hyde] on TV the other night,' said Snodgrass. 'These politicians were going on about how he should have been on the Supreme Court, what a great man he is, how we're lucky to have him in Congress in charge of the impeachment case. And all I can think of is here is this man, this hypocrite who broke up my family.'
"Snodgrass says Hyde carried on a five-year sexual relationship with his then-wife, Cherie, that shattered his family. Hyde admitted to Salon Wednesday that he had been involved with Cherie Snodgrass..."
