I'm in the camp that says personal proclivities are the problem of the individuals involved. If every political groupie were to be "Linda Tripp'ed", there would be a lot fewer Administration and Congressional politicians, even though these are the same people who claim to be outraged.

This is certainly true for the average citizen, but for a president, he/she can't afford to be distracted whether it's reported or not. The behavior in this case betrays a dangerous cavalier attitude about the responsibilities of the office. Don't tell me that others have gotten away with it. That is irrelevant.
