>>I am seriously considering leaving this party of cowards.<< It's also a party of hypocrites and adulterers. Does that bother you at all? Now, Mr. Moral Majority Newt Gingrich has been caught in yet another adulterous affair with a 33 year old honey behind his adoring wife's back. And now--say the Georgia courts--both Newtie and his cutie will have to testify as to every amorous detail as part of Mrs. Gingrich's divorce action. And the affair apparently began while Newt was still speaker--did his colleagues know of it, and tolerate it? So let's see, we now have Gingrich, Burton, Livingston, Hyde and Chenoweth admitting to violating the Commandment "thou shalt not commit adultery." And, of course, they lied about it to their spouses and others (bore false witness). How many others would we uncover with a Ken Starr-like investigation? Let's put Slick Willy out of the argument for a moment--these are your Republican moral leaders. What type of example are they setting for the young married people of America who are trying to adhere to the Biblical commands?

JLA, come on over the the Libertarian Party. We haven't become mainstream enough to sell out (yet). I don't know if the failure of the Senate Republicans to press the case against Clinton was so much a lack of cajones as it was them protecting one of their own, a bottom feeding politician, when the chips were down. Just one more proof that Republicans and Democrats are just two sides of the same coin, who face each other in a staged confrontation, every bit as fixed and predetermined as a WCW pay-for-view tag team match. The only thing missing is for the Speaker of the House to stand up and say, "LET'S GET READY TO RUMMMMBBBLLLEEEEE!!!!". Any of the cast of characters that doesn't go by the script is banished from wrestling, oops I mean politics altogether. (Can you say Newt?) The only reason there even is two parties is to give us the impression that we actually have a choice and to discourage us from seeking a real political voice in the running of our own affairs.
