johannes,

Of course, I've no idea what Pres. Clinton's demeanor is on the video tape....I understand he chooses his words very carefully(afterall he is a lawyer--don't they all?:o)......that he uses a few expletives(americans are used to Hollywood movies--after that I can't imagine what words could shock them) and that he walks out of the room in a "huff" when asked what Mrs. Clinton's reaction was when she learned about his affair with Monica(in any event a question about Hillary's reaction to something)

IMO, he used the "huff" as an excuse to join his lawyers in the next room and ask their direction in answering the question. Remember, he's a lawyer(we can't expect him to be less than a fox in such matters)Besides, to survive politically today in America you'd better be a "wiley coyote" or you're toast. Those on the other side of the congressional aisle are just as clever when cornered.

As for Mr. Hyde, Johannes, I would argue that he did abuse the public trust by never disclosing to the American people that he was not qualified to be the Judiciary Committee Chairman because of "personal reasons." No need on his part at that time to divulge all the details. Someone made the statement that adultery was illegal in Illinois when Mr. Hyde was having his 5-yr dalliance with Mrs. Snodgrass. Maybe they were joking...it's hard too believe that's true...if it was illegal, I'm sure some lawyer will get the facts and fill in the blanks on Larry King or Geraldo's show one of these nights.

As far as your suggestions to the President to resurrect his trampled image and credibility, please send them ASAP to the White House......they need your help:o)

Ann
