j g - interesting "take" on Bork's comments, but I don't think he had just the Vietnam war in mind - more that the slide toward moral relativism given us by the radical activists "leaked" into more and more of strata the non-involved in that era.

As food for thought, do you think there was some effect of the radicals on the willingness to commit to winning the war? Don't you believe that Johnson and especially Nixon would have been widely condemned by the more-and-more empowered left for ordering the actions that would have (note I did not say "could" have) won the war?

As for "He accuses a nation of failing morals and who is showing collapsing restraint. Both Clinton and Bork are wagging their finger at us!"

The only thing Clinton is wagging . . . well, never mind. I'll be more civil. Clinton isn't complaining at all about moral decline; his dishonesty simply fosters an environment where it is Ok. He can always count on the moral relativists to ride out the storm of his behavior problems with the convenient "everybody does it" kind of diversionary "non-defense defense."

The march toward "anything goes" continues, and Bill is at the head of the marching band.

BTW - you don't suppose those FBI files have the Republican's favorite video lists, do you?

Mr. K.
