Steve IMO, a VERY BAD analogy

Suppose someone who is a very good umpire say a major league umpire cheats on his wife does that mean that this umpire has no integrity when calling a baseball game?

Bill Clinton cheated on his wife. Did that make him a bad President? I realize that is up to debate but the last time this countries economy was in decent shape was when he was President.

Just because someone fails to declare certain income on his/her taxes does NOT mean they have NO integrity on the field.

IMO, that is simply an absurd correlation.
