X5rolls is on a distinguished road
So the next set of questions then I'd propose is:

Given Clinton's activities, did that make him less effective at his job?

Could he have accomplished more if he didn't do this and subsequently get caught?

Did other people work with him differently (maybe less effectively or work against him) because of what he did?

If the end result is a diminished capacity to lead or execute on the tasks small and or large does that matter?

Having said that, I still don't care about his private life as long as he gets the job done. I know nothing about the privates lives of congress and they may be more wacked out then even the weirdest Taratino movie. What interests me is whether or not they are doing their jobs, and the answer to that is quite obvious.

No the scientist was not an elected Federal official, but he was working in a Federally funded lab using Federal funds.
