LET HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE

It seems moral issues are alive and well in the village of Talofofo...

If you're a public official, you live in a glass house. If you're married and carry on with someone working in your office and move out of your house and out of the village and you're the commissioner, you're outta 'bounds...commissioners are supposed to be livings within the boundary of the village, one thinks.....then....there's the issue of, the affair with the office employee thingy that doesn't play well with the 90% Catholic villagers that have front row seats to this debacle....like it or not, they're an audience of a reality show for a man that probably most of them voted for.....
So, it's no wonder that a few of them wrote a letter to the election commission to recall this village commissioner because he moved out of the village (and probably because of his affair which they find disdainful)......It's unusual that in this day and age, there are still people that care if people fool around on their spouse, most look the other way, most don't care, most even do it themselves.......yet in this little village, the moral issue matters and though the mayor moved back to the village and is doing his job, the villagers no longer want him to be the village leader.
One has to wonder if the villagers will continue their move the mayor out of office or if they'll accept some sort of compromise....whatever the case, it's good to see that not every body has lost their sense of morality. Those who play with fire often get burned!
