The year 2008 was filled with infidelity stories. Some of the celebrities who were in the news regarding their indiscretions included Elliot Spitzer, Johnathan Edwards, Representative Tim Mahoney and Barbara Walters. For the politicians Spitzer, Mahoney and Edwards, the affairs were disastrous. For Barbara Walters, it helped her sell her autobiography. From reading through the stories, these are my pick for the top 10 of the 2008. There were many accounts of affairs in the military, which caused some problems. One led to international problems between the US and Romania. There were also several stories involving the use of telephone technology and affairs. From the many slimy stories, these are my top 10.
10. It is acceptable to lie to the police about affairs in Italy (3/8/2008)
9. It was a shock for one man to visit the local brothel and see his wife employed there.
8. Forbes did a story on the best cities for couples. Among the items looked at were divorce rate, frequency of infidelity and counseling resources available. (2/5/2008)

6. Uganda is removing all religious teaching from their public schools including prohibitions against adultery.
5. It was discovered that the new #1 sign of an affair is excessive texting
