<But whistle blowing is the classic case for "no good deed goes unpunished." Look at what happened to Linda Tripp. That's a classic whistle blower case> Linda Tripp's smut gossip is not whistle-blowing. Whistle-blowing is when laws are broken. Adultery [or close encounters of a sexual nature in Bill's case], isn't a crime [outside Islamic Jihad circles and a few others]. It's cause for divorce - but it wasn't even cause enough for that so it wasn't really anybody else's business. A LOT of people got their tits in a tangle over something for which even said Bill's wife didn't see fit to end it all. Breaking and entering and subverting the USA's presidential election process is a bit more serious what Bill and Monica did. Though of course plenty of people get far more excited about the latter than the former as it gets their juices going and they foam at the mouth with prurient interest and want very much to get involved. The breaking and entering is forgettably boring by comparison. Linda Tripp also betrayed a friendship for such prurient gossip. Mqurice
