Human Nature

Isn't human nature wonderful! It delivered wonderful scandals in the past, continues to do so today and will do so until the end of time.  These last few days have given us two potential mega scandals. We have the accusation that the managing director of the IMF, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, sexually assaulted a maid in the hotel he was staying at in New York and as if that were not enough to get one's teeth into we have the allegation that Chris Huhne asked a third party to pretend she was driving his car so that her driving licence would be endorsed with speeding penalties rather than his. Whether these stories are true or not it is a fact that some mud is going to stick to the two individuals concerned as there will always be those who will believe them to be guilty. There will also always be those who will believe them innocent even if they are found guilty. Either way conspiracy theories will abound. Could the two accusations be linked in some way? Would it be too much of a stretch of the imagination to think so? What would people think if the maid in the New York hotel was in some way found to be linked to the person who originated the story about Mr Huhne and the speeding penalty points? The mind bogles but no doubt at some point the truth will be revealed even if there will be those predisposed not to believe it. I can't wait for the next episode.
