Did you read this?Ok, so yeah, not right... but what the hell is the "kid" doing talking/enticing him. I get upset with all involved in such a situation -- namely because society has set standards which are suppose to define the limitation of behaviors by ones number of years and not by ones mentality ( ... )

I agree with much of what you say. In this particular case the person in question has a number of strikes against him, including the fact that he speaks out against the behavior he participated in and as a member of Congress has to uphold the laws even when he doesn't agree with them especially when he helped create the laws he is breaking.

I can't think of a more ridiculous situation than having hypocritical adults try to teach or establish moral limits for children.

True, and I don't disagree. However, I do think we all (to some degree) act hypocritically at least once in our lifetimes. That doesn't make it right...

Despite whether something is "right" or "wrong" ... if you believe it to be one thing, and you go against that belief, you are living in opposition of your morals and THAT is what I find most disagreeable about a lot of things.

How do these jokers get elected? How many members in this congress have a freezer full of cash, or an underage page on a dirty chat session, or are smacking security gaurds? Jeez!
