JLA--I've tried to kill this discussion of Bush's affair because we're going round and round and getting nowhere. One last time: If you all recall, this whole thing began because I said that it would have been very easy to have filed some kind of lawsuit against Bush for abuse of office (e.g., using official trips as a way to bed Ms. Fitzgerald) or sexual harassment (filed by Fitzgerald) and then put Bush under oath and had him lie. If that is true (which is arguable) then Bush is morally no better than Clinton, he's just luckier. And then all the same arguments that you use against Clinton (my god, he lied point-blank to Stone Phillips and the American people; he sent his own son out to call it a lie when he knew it wasn't; etc.) are the same for him. Presidents lie for convenience and political expediency. Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Clinton. And they've all probably done it under oath too (remember Iran-Contra?). You guys are just as guilty as me at practicing moral relativism. Doughboy.
