What ever happened to monogamy?

What ever happened to monogamy, fidelity, faithfulness, keeping a vow?  I grow weary of reading about this politician and that politician or official doing really immoral things while married.  In one case the person in question just married in September, his wife is pregnant and he is flashing himself on his cell phone to young college girls.  Why did he bother to marry?  Why ruin another person's life.  If it is one's choice to "play around" then why bother to marry someone and make the promise of fidelity?.....STAY single!  Don't drag another person's life in the mess (and in some cases LIVES because there are children involved).  Just stay single and play to your heart's content, but don't marry.

Every religion I know of in the world has a vow of faithfulness in the ceremony.  Do these guys think "faithfulness" is really a "code word" for "go ahead and cheat on your wife"??....or code word for "play around as much as you wish".

It doesn't make sense.  When one takes a vow to be faithful to a person for life....that's serious stuff and is not to be taken lightly.  It would be refreshing to hear of a political leader who could say in all sincerity "my greatest achievement of all was being faithful to my spouse in spite of many temptations".
