>>Read Darkness at Noon by Arthur Koestler---it is a chronicle of the Stalin witch
hunts of the 30's. The parallels are striking.


That's funny, because you are the closet thing to a a Stalinist here. In fact, your defense of Clinton is striking in that it parallels the defense of Stalin by the US Left in the 1950's. It did not matter what he did, so long as he advanced Leftism. There are some with politics like you who to this day still defend Stalin.

You have also misread Orwell, as "1984" is best understood as an attack by Orwell on the totalitarian state, a product of the left. "Newspeak" is akin the political correctness advanced by the Dems today. In "Animal Farm" Orwell increasingly saw the Left as the threat as he satirized communism.
