What is Considered right and wrong in the U.S?

I have often wonder what is considered right and wrong in the United States and have found myself at a lost. What such a country that judges some so harsly can barely look at others and their faults. Lately the target has been Tiger Woods who apparently had some affairs on his wife, something that has been happening with man since they have been on earth, so it leaves me to wonder why has americans made Tigers affairs bigger than life. We have others who have been caught in multiple affairs, one that comes to my mind is Charlie Sean. He is suppose to be a sex addict, whatever that mean, and is getting help for the many of women he keeps having affairs with while he is married to an already beautiful woman. Nothing is said of Charlie's constant cheating on his spouses, it is something that everyone acts is okay and they make excuses like what more do you expect of Charlie Sean. My question is why is it expected of Charlie Sean and if he chooses to sleep around why does he not do like George Clooney, someone whom I respect for having the guts to admit he does not want to get marry because he enjoys sleeping around with different women and while sleeping around with these women he treats them right, a man after my own heart. While continuing to speak on this country judgements, what is up with Alec Baldwin, the man who thought it was okay to call up his daughter and leave some very nasty messages to a child is something I will never understand. He came on television said how people did not know the whole story and blew the entire situation out of porpotion and we are to believe that? I heard the man in a very angry voice say some very ugly words to a young child, but yet america goes on and on about what Kanye West did to Taylor Swift was so horrifying they could not believe it, how could he hurt this eighteen year old feelings like that. I do not agree what Kanye did but what about Alex Baldwin who cursed out his own teenage daughter, can anyway say this child will need some thearpy from this abuse she received from her own dad. As we continue on I think about what makes a hero in America, I am confused on this one by far. We are told that a hero is someone we can look up too and be proud of because they lead the life that America was establish on, they do for those who can not do for themselves, they follow the good book and their life represents the words written in this book. I think about celebrities and how they are protrayed, we know that actors are just that actors but they are role models to our children and what they do our children are more likely to follow. We have had actors who were kicked off televison because the got a DUI and yet we have had actors who gotten DUI's and have killed a person, "Prison Break", and was continue to act on the show until trial came up, we have actors who were caught fighting a Christmas tree in Japan, "24hrs", and still remain to be the leading actor and my biggest embrassement is Robert Downey Jr. a drug addict who has went to jail again and again and again but yet somehow he continues to make movies. Robert Downey Jr. is a drug addict and no one denies it because you can not but he is doing hero movies like Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes, did Sherlock do drugs? Please do not tell me this it would disappoint a true Sherlock fan like me. Robert Downey Jr has been made a hero in America so how do we explain to our children that this so call hero can do drugs, go to jail, get out, sleep around with prostitues, abandon his son and continue to not be question when he does a movie about a super hero or an hero of any kind. We get great actors who can not even be nominated for an academy award but a person who has been given help over and over for his drug habit continues to be acknowledged. I watched a judge tell Robert Downey Jr. how he will continue to end up in his court because it is apparent that he will not stop using drugs and the judge explained to him that he expects to hear that he is dead one day. I have that same feeling that Robert Downey Jr. will not stop using as long as he is alive and everytime he makes a movie I think about how much of it is going to drugs and does he use his money for any good, like feeding a hungry child or supporting a worthwile cause because the lord knows we have a lot of those. I do not make much money but I find that there are many causes and give to two I feel that my money can best help. If I made Robert Downey money I know that it would go to a lot of different causes and one of those would not be a crack pipe I would be smoking on, now maybe a drug recovery center that help those who really want to be helped.
