profligate - PROF-lih-GATE - having low moral standards
Example: "Time Magazine referred to the 'profligate Berlusconi and his many peccadilloes (sins) as being once again in scandal.'"
As a starter: and as a former teacher in English, I hope to add to reader's vocabulary by presenting a word a day in simple terms that anyone can understand - from current use in publications, radio,TV, etc. Remember: use a new word three times in a day and it's yours forever!
