I get it. He shouldn't have done it, period. But does his arrogance and ego mean that it was the reps job to expose the nitty gritty details to the public? How bout the morals of revenge? no (or very very few) politicians, in my mind, can speak authoritatively on morals without making jackasses of themselves.

What good did it do to expose his libido to the world? I think it is pretty obvious to most people that Bill and Hillary have more of an "understanding" than a marriage (don't start expousing to me the holiness of the marital vows..) She's went along for the ride and is now reaping her reward. I really don't think she cares that Bill was screwin around, but I do think she was embarassed by the fact that such things were raised to the level of a national crisis.

Many countries have leaders who have many mistresses (some even have leaders who are single, heaven forbid) but it is simply overlooked. What a man does with his d*ck is none of my business. I would concede that he definitely shout NOT have done what he did in the oval office, but that is another story. I think moralizing about sex between consenting adults is making a mountain out of a molehill... what's the big deal? too many insecure, repressed people out there.

I also find it funny that Clinton and Kennedy (who was pretty smug himself, till he got shot), the two presidents who "got some extramarital booty" while in office, were also two of our most popular (Clinton was a VERY popular pres, no matter how u slice it).
