Allow me to borrow liberally from Bill Bennett's "The Death of Outrage" So, according to your logic, all that matters are outcomes. An all-girls' college has 100 percent of its graduates go on to extremely high-paying jobs. They win the league championships in field hockey and basketball. Their orchestra is renowned throughout the state. Students are acclaimed dancers, win honors at science fairs, write dot-com business plans that have VCs salivating. In all respects, they are the top of the charts. Oh, yeah, and the male married college dean sleeps with a couple of the girl students, too. And he denies it -- under oath, in fact. That'd be no big then, right? It's just about sex, right? And, heck, it was consensual, right? If your wallet is going to be the one and only prism through which you make judgments and decisions about your life and your society, you are far poorer than you'll ever understand. That fact that you think life begins and ends with a brokerage account statement, and SUV, and a fancy dinner betrays the utter shallowness of your existence. As for "He who lives without sin shall cast the first stone." Since YOU brought it up, you should check with the author of that. If you're going to quote him, you might want to check some of his other greatest hits, too, to wit: "Thou shalt not commit adultery," and "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor" and "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife." Your brain has the intellectual fitness of "Fat Bastard" from Austin Powers...

truthful, Clinton had, absolutely, nothing to do with your fat wallet, or belly. The only bills he has had presented to Congress are spending bills, that would soon deplete that heavy item in your britches, and your smug attitude, at the same time. Folks like you seem to have forgotten that Reagan's "trickle down" economy, which he said would take 10 to 15 years to have it's full effect, is one of the main reasons you are enjoying your money so much now. The other, is the rise in the stock market, for which businesses are responsible, and not clinton, or anyone in his administration. Before you go shooting off your mouth, you should learn a little more about how the system works. ~H~
