And I'd say Clinton took full and proper advantage of every privilege of the executive... and then some. It was certainly presidential dealings, anyway.
Ah, yeah, that's one way of putting. Subtly worded, too. :-)

BTW, where's the rule that consensual adult heterosex disqualifies you from high office? Did anyone tell Newt?
I believe the electorate told him loud and clear. You notice he's no longer Speaker - or in Congress?

That wasn't gibberish - that was my best electrical blather, punning on your use of the word fuse, and ... ah well. some subtlety is wasted.
OK, next time give me warning so I can throw all that EE I learned in college.

Something like, oh, the siting of special nuclear reserves.
Not in my back yard!

I think in Clinton's case it had a bit more to do with perjury.

IMO, when Clinton is assessed, the fact that he is a rapist should be mentioned, even though he was never charged with the rape of Juanita Broaddrick. If you followed that case, you know he is a brutal and sordid rapist.

That doesn't mean I don't look with amusement at the claims that the Paula Jones case was just about perjury. Sure it was, once it got to court. But why and how did it get there? LOL. Paula Jones was an opportunist who took full advantage of the opportunity to be used for the political purposes of others. In every country in the world they were laughing at us for that farcical show, it was embarrassing. And also, ironically enough... Bill Clinton is a stone-cold rapist (to borrow Christopher Hitchens's adjective.)

Just my opinion.
