Kenneth Starr's Sex life Newt Gingrich's Sex life Bob Dole's Sex life Dan Quayle's Sex life George Bush's Sex life Ronald Reagan's Sex life who will be next? now the public has an appetite for knowing all the sexual details of its leaders. its great for ratings, selling commercials, etc. its so effective, it will find a new victim. it makes so much money and we paid $40 million dollars for sexual gossip on Clinton. so who wants to be president now? who hasn't lied once in their life? who hasn't lied about a sexual encounter? why all this interest? because the US has enormous SHAME about sexuality. it it paraded in front of us in unhealthy ways, in films, very often connected to violence. only the self righteous can claim never to have lied about their own sex life. so everyone who is angry.. what about your sex life? how many times have you lied? post your information about it OK? we would all like to read it. you are just like Clinton after all, if you ever lied.. to your mom, dad, friends, girlfriends, wives, husbands.... hey tell us. we will pay for it.. we'll put it in the news. put it on the Jerry Springer show. Obviously Clinton was ashamed and lied. he wasn't afraid of Starr. he was embarrassed in front of Hilary, and hoped it would go away. he was ashamed. but only in the US would we justify spending $40 MILLION for dirt on the sex life of a leader. with the excuse of going after 'perjury' just like the news should now be the Jerry Springer show. cause now it is. Starr is a pervert.. he is obsessed with Clinton. how about investigating what kind of sex he has, who he has it with, interview everyone he has slept with and put it on the news. we all want to know, and we will pay for it. and if you're angry about Clinton, then why don't you just tell us everything you have ever done sexually you don't want you mother to know.. we all want to know.. and we will pay to hear about it.. a sick country this is.

This investigation was just one in a series of investigations into Clinton in which there were almost 20 convictions and would have been more for the myriad scandals. They just happened to nail Clinton for this particular case because Clinton's ego got the better of him in trying to cover up and again in the "admission" speech. If a 21-year old non-lawyer type with loose lips was involved in those other scandals, they would likely have been in prison already. The Lewinsky case is more analogous to the tax evasion case for Al Capone and the civil trial for OJ Simpson. They got the accountant to talk in the Capone case, and they got OJ to talk in the civil trial.
