12.) Although the primary issues are perjury and obstruction, I will not deny that it is also
about the sex, at least to me. I understand adultery, I have no problem with fellatio, but I
think it is so entirely disreputable to get precipitously involved with a young intern in what
appears to have been an exploitative relationship, even if she acquiesced, in the Oval
Office, getting serviced while talking to Congressmen on the phone, that it necessarily
colors my view. Furthermore, the recklessness, especially when the Jones suit was moving
forward, and also when he expressed anxiety about his phone being tapped, is stunning. I
think he should have resigned on the basis of exposing the affair alone, even if it did not
suffice for impeachment. |
