I believe that Slick is every bit the "horndog" that his accusers are suggesting, but what is surprising is how boldly he comes on to these women. I would think most skirtchasers would approach their targets with at least some degree of tact...maybe have a drink (or two or three), make some small talk, lots of flattery, perhaps some kissing, and then they're on the way! But Slick seems to like the more direct approach...quick hug, grab her breasts, whip out unit. Sounds to me like he has probably had some success with this formula in the past. I'll bet there are dozens of women hiding out right now who were willing partners of Clinton. If not for the tapes, Monica would never have come out. You know there are lots more Monicas.

Kevin, Are you familiar with the four psychological motivators for people? (A real psychologist could explain this a lot better than me). 1) What's in it for me? 2) How will it make me feel? 3) Public Commitment ("It's my duty as an ___ to do it"). 4) Contractual Commitment ("I'll do it because I said I'll do it"). Most people under their early 40's only react to items nos 1 and 2. Sheer commitment for commitment's sake is almost lost in the US- you'll find it primarily only in people over 60. People 45-60 still undertake "public commitments". President Clinton's approach is very simple. He appeals to numbers 1 & 2 in every speech. he says"I'm going to do "X" for you and it will make you feel good about yourself". Go look at his last State of the Union address if you do not believe me- it's a classic example of the "1/2" style as I call it. Just one example- why would people otherwise look the other way say last year when the INS naturalized over 2,000,000 new US citizens just in the 6 months before the 1996 election (the INS usually only naturalizes about 500,000 people annually) including thousands of foreigners with drug records, links to Middle Eastern terrorist groups, and garden variety murderers, etc. Does it pique you that many low/mid level drug smugglers are now US citizens and travel to and from the US with impunity? Or that Middle Eastern terrorist group members were casing buildings in various US cities in the last few weeks for placing potential chemical weapon attacks- yet some of these " organizational mules" now have US citizenship thanks to a corrupt Democratic Administration? I could go on with dozens of examples where this Administration has feathered its nest at the cost of the well-being of the American peoples- you are familiar with dozens of them..... Finally- have you heard of a Ms. Denziger? You will be hearing about her shortly..... Sincerely, Doug F.
