Bill Clinton is the ultimate moral relativist surpassing even some who post to this thread. Taht depends... Also, notice that my question as to how shotgun subpoenas and the other "nefarious" methods Mr. Starr is alleged to employ violate the Constitution has yet to be answered. I really do believe that privacy is a constitutionally guaranteed right, though probably you don't. Therefore, in my view, Starr is WAAAYYYYY outta line.

jlallen, it's funny how people some people seem to assume that Clinton's character isn't an issue. This is a individual who seems to have difficulty delaying self-gratification. IMHO, that is a serious character issue that always has the danger of crossing over from "the private" to "the public". One example: When Reagan met w/ Gorbachev at Reykjavik, he had a chance to walk away w/ a treaty that would have played extremely well in the press and across the world stage, while enervating a program he and others believed was critical to our long-term national security interests - SDI. At a point where the decision had to be made, he looked at one of his advisors on the trip and said something to the effect of "if we do this, we're really just doing this so we can say we came away from here having signed something, aren't we?" And he walked away without taking Gorbachev's offer and was slammed for it in many circles. The country Mr. Gorbachev was representing has undergone some changes since then. Do you think for a minute our current President would have shown that type of discipline? Hold a poll number to this President's head and he folds. Bill Clinton taking communion and then having Mike McCurry explain it away by citing a policy by South African Bishops? They've yet to grasp the fact that there are more than a few people in this country who believe that adultery is not only WRONG it's a SIN and therefore devout Catholics might not take too well to an admitted, unrepentent adulterer caught in the midst of a sex scandal receiving the sacrament of communion. Good trading, Tom
