"one of the themes running through this tacky episode in American history is that presidents are held to higher standards of conduct by the American people than others are. He is the chief law enforcement officer of the land, for example. "

You know that this is pure mythlogy, so why continue promoting this double standard of conduct? Our politicians have always been known for their sexual appetites. Pure baloney!

"they managed to keep their private sexual relationships private, and were discreet enough that they didn't have women dragging them into court."

You seem to be holding him to a higher standard off conduct.
You know that he did not make these rumors public. Yet you want to hold him responsible for so doing. You are UNFAIR and UNOBJECTIVE.The media made them public and the sealed information was leaked to them by the judiciary. Why don't you go after the people who are actually to blame for this brouhaha?

" Bill Clinton was well aware of what the rules were, and it looks as if he may have violated them fragrantly."

You have convicted him in the abscence of fact. Shame on you.

John Kennedy, Jr. has said publicly that in these days of heightened morality and less privacy for the president, his father would perhaps not have run for the office.

He was two years old when JFK died; how on earth would he know what his father would have done?
