TE>Sorry to delete the rest of your post, it was well written.  What
TE>has surprised me is the depth of the media and public reaction.
TE>Why now?  Why this?  We all know that Clinton has done as much or
TE>worse in the past.  Was this simply the last straw or does the
TE>*perceived* vulnerability (youth) of the girl have a bearing?
Why now? Because as U.S. News and World Report said, the American people in 
effect said we had a deal. We would not look at his past as long as he 
behaved in the future. He breached his end of the bargain. This is no B.S. 
This is what was printed in the above publication. 
Also, the girl involved was 21 years old, not that much older than Chelsea. 
Ergo, it might have been akin to incest. Furthermore, this was yet another 
girl that worked for him as opposed to a woman he met outside the sphere of 
the White House. 
TE>I was listening to one talking head, on TV no less, dig up
TE>Clinton's lies about his draft notice and the "Col. Holmes"
TE>letter as examples of his lack of veracity.  They seem to be
TE>pulling out all the stops this time.  The fun part is that the
TE>Republicans don't have to do a thing, they only need to sit back
TE>and enjoy the show.  Every hour, it seems, the revelations get
TE>more and more damaging to the Dufus.
Ain't it grand?  Yee Haw !
TE>The last report I heard said he was staying out of sight in the
TE>White House.  The thought occurred to me that maybe Hillary has

From what I've heard she's rallying to his defense. It's amazing what power 
will do to one's self worth and standards.
