Ok, but I would bet that based on that, we need to get rid of 15% to


25% of the people in Congress if they cheat the same as the % of Americans (based on one google search). I would suspect that based on ego, they cheat at a higher rate, but that is a guess.

Are we prepared to kick out say 20% of Congress based on this for moral reasons? For reasons of potential blackmail?

I admit that I was disgusted with Gingrich for going after Clinton while he was having his own affair, but based on moral grounds, I didn't see a reason to kick either out (I have never cheated, but I don't claim to know why other people might cheat). However, I could see a case for being kicked out if they become security risks.
