I can say the same thing about Bush and his buddy Ken Lay You could, but you'd be lying again.

I responded to your posts concerning the Clinton/Monica debacle and your expressed views that Monica was the seducer. That was the topic. I gave you my views on that affair. If you'd like to respond to my comments, which had nothing to do with Democrat Vs. Republican, Clinton vs. Bush, liberal politics vs. conservatism, or even ENE, etc., I'd be happy to re-engage the conversation. Instead, what you've done is change the subject and provide a non-sequitur. As for Clinton's "private life", the life of a pres ain't so private in the White House. It is unseemly for him to be receiving a BJ while talking to representatives of foreign countries, e.g.. Maybe it's just me, but that image is more evocative of some third world dictator, chewing on a fat Havana At some point you have to face the fact that Clinton's behavior with Monica was inexcusable, whether you like it or not. This has nothing to do with whether some other president did some other bad thing at some other time. It's not a comparative analysis. I'm not willing to excuse Clinton's misconduct because someone else is supposedly worse. It's that kind of thinking that has sunk this country's basic standards of decency. There have to be some standards, uniformly applied, by which to measure conduct. Your approach is like saying that a man who beats his wife should not be convicted because, after all, other men actually kill their wives. That dog don't hunt. M
