From reading the thoughts from world news-sites it looks like the globe is already disgusted with this distinctively American preoccupation with sex. Where else in the world but the United States would politicians be talking of impeaching their leader for getting a little sexual gratification from a seductive nymph. The battle is a disgrace to Democracy. Have we all just gotten a little too fat and bored with golf, movies and malls? This persecution is a somber statement of our litigious, spoiled, wasteful, vicious, egocentric society. We're the richest nation on Earth - can't we utilize our resources just a little bit better?

Folks, I hear a lot of judgemental language and see a lot of very "descriptive" name calling. When I see this sort of thing, I wonder whether personal short comings are being used transfered to Clinton. The figures say that 40% of marrieds cheat. I suspect that few of them told their spouses about it. In fact, I suspect most lied about it when confronted. I doubt the even the 40% figure is correct. I suspect that many either refused to take part in the poll, or if they did, I suspect that many lied. It is a fact of out time that promiscuity is some what of a norm. It is a fact that even of those who have not cheated, would if given the opportunity. It is also very much a fact, that many a good man secumed under temptation. Many of you may already have secumed, or will in the future. Certainly, I fully believe, an extremely high number have fornicated in our minds. According to Jesus, that is enough and if guilty of the least than guilty of the most. So. who can cast the first stone. Wish I was that pure. Think about it folks. Are't we doing a disservice to every one when we simply critize and condem? We say that we elected him to be of moral character. I fact, many have not been, but they were not asked to resign. Their fault were simply overlooked. Of course we didn't have the critical and hungry news media we have now, but we did have a greater morality amoung the people. Just thoughts. Think about it.
