Ichy, which would you say is worse, lying to avoid being exposed as an adulterer, which would perhaps be embarrassing in relations with wife and daughter [I doubt that he could care less whether you knew or not and might even be pleased about being known as a great stud], or lying about the desperate need to invade Iraq to stop nuclear bombs going off in New York and chemical bomb rockets being launched with 45 minutes notice, which was not a victimless bunch of lies.

We were talking about Foley. Foley has so far admitted his mistake and resigned his seat. Studds had sex with a page and did not resign, and went on to 3 more terms. Clinton lied about sleeping with an intern, and didn't resign. All three men committed similar mistakes. Between Foley and Studds studds actually had sex with the boy, but as a Democrat it was fine. That is the point. What George did or didn't do has nothing to do with the analogy, George isn't sleeping with young people in the White House.
