Jim: I respectfully disagree. The problem's roots run far deeper than the rather common malaise of "penialerectitus". 1. It is Monica Lewinsky's parents' fault: they conceived this woman and if she didn't exist, the alleged incidents would not have occurred. 2. It is the President's friend, Carvell's fault: If he had dragged a $100 bill through the Watergate Apartments he may have smoked out Lewinsky (ala Paula Jones and the trailer park) and avoided the alleged incidents which followed. 3. It is Jimmy Carter's fault: back in the 70s Carter admitted in a Playboy interview that he sometimes had "lust in his heart". Clinton read this and took this as wise council, vowing to keep all of his future lust below the waist. 4. It is the 'portraits of previous American Presidents that are strewn around the White House' fault: obviously those sanctimonious men who glare down mercilessly in semi-mocking, doleful gazes would challenge any sitting President to exercise his rightful power and duties. Any red-blooded, American President would naturally be psychologically motivated to get off his duff and perform what he was best at to the best of his abilities. Now really, is it Bill's fault that what he is best at is impromptu sexual interludes? 5. It is the American people's fault: obviously, if they hadn't believed him about Flowers he would never have been elected and wouldn't be in the spot he is now - facing possible impeachment if the allegations are true. 6. It is Richard Nixon's fault: if he hadn't died he'd still be available for the press to kick around. Father Terrence
