Jim, that's an interesting take. Let me try and outline where I think you have gotten off base, at least from my perspective. I believe the supporter of Clinton, are showing almost a blind faith in defending him simply because he is a Democrat, and liberal. It has nothing to do with acceptance in my mind. I believe my post have tended (instead of judging moral attitudes) toward exposing what I see as complete hypocrisy. Let me ask a few questions to show why. Why were the Democrats the first ones to scream bloody murder for the heads of Clarence Thomas and Bob Packwood, yet so accepting here? Why were they after anyone and everyone remotely associated with the tailhook party? Why did the media play special after special expressing outrage over tailhook? Where is Patsy Shroader now? Where is the outrage? There is only one main difference between those episodes and this administration. They were Republicans or part of the eeevil military industrial complex. Which liberals never hesitate to go after. To me it's simply gross hypocrisy! Nothing more, nothing less. If Ronald Reagan had been caught getting blow jobs in the Oval office from an intern, I have no doubt the same people who are claiming tolerance, would be screaming for his head! We wouldn't be arguing over whether it was legal or not, whether he lied or not, we would be arguing over whether he should go to jail after being impeached or not! There would be special after special run on T.V. decrying the moral decay of the country, he would be blamed for everything from teenage pregnancy to every rape in the country. The NOW gang would be on every television show in America decrying the abuse of woman, the degradation of woman rights, and on and on. I honestly don't even think it's debatable. The evidence is so overwhelming. Can you honestly say you don't believe this would be happening? Michael
