BE, The Harding reference was simply based on discovered levels of corruption. I leave bedroom issues out of my political considerations because they have no impact on public policy. [[Aside: Many would like to use their own prudery as some sort of a basis for finger-pointing and public policy. I find this sexual McCarthyism to be distasteful and very small-minded. I chose to turn a blind eye, and see policy as much more important to the health of the nation, than examining the private pecadillos of alpha males. ]] Re: it will be tough to top the disgrace that the clit'n's brought to the White House. Judging by the resoundingly positive response that Clinton elicits in Europe, both from the statesman group as well as the man on the street, and in view of the protests that Bush 43 receives from the same, I'd say your views are quite parochial in nature. Heck, Bush would even have a hard time getting a positive response in California, which he sold out to his buddy Kenny Boy, except for appearances at contrived, invitation-only photo op sessions. -Ray
