It was actually Clinton himself (not "religious nuts") who started the legal prying into other people's sex lives. Clinton signed the law in 1994 that enabled a plaintiff in a sexual harassment lawsuit to ask questions in court about the defendant's private sex life while shielding the plaintiff from having to answer such questions.

"Religious nuts try to hold him up to some ridiculous standard" I'm not a religious nut, and I think the most powerful man on earth should have enough self control to not prey on gullable interns that are in love with him while he is under investigation for a sexual harrasment. All so he could get a blow job and insert his cigar into MOnica while he should have been working. "What Clinton did was human" That you describe this episode as being "human" is what makes you different from me and many other ordinary Americans. That one who views this as normal can make moral judgements about anything is laughable.

530 US dead and 3000 maimed. Not to mention 1000’s of Iraqi’s Liberals claim President Bush shouldn't have started this war. They complain about his prosecution of it. One liberal recently claimed Bush was the worst president in U.S. history. Let's clear up one point: We didn't start the war on terror. Try to remember, it was started by terrorists on 9/11. Let's look at the "worst" president and mismanagement claims. FDR led us into World War II. Germany never attacked us: Japan did. From 1941-1945, 450,000 lives were lost, an average of 112,500 per year. Truman finished that war and started one in Korea, North Korea never attacked us. From 1950-1953, 55,000 lives were lost, an average of 18,333 per year. John F. Kennedy started the Vietnam conflict in 1962. Vietnam never attacked us. Johnson turned Vietnam into a quagmire. From 1965-1975, 58,000 lives were lost, an average of 5,800 per year. Clinton went to war in Bosnia without UN or French consent, Bosnia never attacked us. He was offered Osama bin Laden's head on a platter three times by Sudan and did nothing. Osama has attacked us on multiple occasions. In the two years since terrorists attacked us, President Bush has liberate two countries, crushed the Taliban, crippled al-Qaida, put nuclear inspectors in Lybia, Iran and North Korea without firing a shot, and captured a terrorist who slaughtered 300,000 of his own people. We lost 600 soldiers, an average of 30 a year. Bush did all this abroad while not allowing another terrorist attack at home. Worst president in history? Come on!

What Clinton did was human. Religious nuts try to hold him up to some ridiculous standard. It may be considered "human" in your world, but not in mine, or the majority of Americans, and I seriously doubt it is considered "human" by the majority of Canadians, except, of course Quebec, Little France, where anything goes. Please quote me a source for your allegation "everyone knows elder bush had a girlfriend on the side". Was this while he was President of the United states, as was the Moron Clinton? This may be a secret, known only in Canada. KM
