Tennessee Republican David Hooven has vowed not to be alone with “a member of another sex” if elected to the state’s House of Representatives, as “from Presidents to janitors all are tempted.” Hooven made the pledge on his official campaign website, where he said that if elected “my primary focus will be to honor God.”

    “my primary focus will be to honor God.”

    Ever hire on to a new job, and immediately say your primary focus will be something completely irrelevant to your job description/duties?

    Like if I hire on as a nurse at a local hospital, and the first thing I tell the nurse manager is: “My primary focus will be browsing cat memes.” Guess I can take care of a patient here and there if I get bored. No biggie, right?

    …right?

      Sounds like his primary focus is telling the public he literally can’t control himself
