Nope. The instances where its relevant are very limited. For instance, there are many married people who can properly judge Bubba's lack of fidelity. Unmarried people may judge him too but their opinions are probably not as well factually grounded. There are very few truly unique positions where someone is going to be able to say "no one but me is in a position to judge my actions". It is simply harder to make an accurate judgment when you haven't "been there" so to speak and I tend to defer to the judgments of those who have personal knowledge I consider superior to my own. You should keep in mind I am expressing my own opinion in these matters. My problem with your position is that you equate Bush's alleged use of influence to enter the Guard with Clinton's acknowledged draft dodging and subversive activity. There is NO parity. Having been in myself, I don't begrudge those who were able to get positions in the Guard, CO's, etc. We all do what we have to do. Clinton's actions are beyond the pale by comparison. JLA

BTW, the Clinton "marriage" to hear tell by Bubba and Bubbette is simply ducky. So why would he need to stray whenever he gets a chance? And having violence done to you NEVER justifies doing violence to others. Just the opposite. That was always a specious argument.
