Re: 'Actually, I think that's fairly common. Politics as usual."

L a little bit, but I just can't feel that way, I don't feel this instance was usual at all. Specific true things were said about the President, by a single truthful individual. He called her a liar in effect, for quite a long time, in a national forum where he was believed. She was raked through the coals unnecessarily. The whole thing was dragged out unnecessarily and her credibility bashed for months, even by her own party.

I still feel he deserved to be removed on the basis of this particular slander of Monica alone. Maybe I shouldn't expect all Presidents to be like George W. and the cherry tree, but by golly, ya gotta have more sense than this- it's far worse than getting the BJ itself.
