I thought the Prez who bore the bastard was Grover Cleveland, but I don't know for sure. In any event, I don't think it's so easy to draw distinctions between Clinton and the other cheatin' POTUSes. Aren't they all arrogant lying, abusers of power by your definition because they thought they could get away with having extramarital sex in the White House. Clinton is the only one that has ever had to face the music and stand there and tell it like it is (and it took the most incredible series of events to get there). As for the investigation, they were never investigating his sex life in the first place. I think he had a reasonable expectation of privacy there. IMO.

<<Clinton never admitted to having sex during his speech, never apologized, never actually accepted responsibility for anything. All he showed us was more weasel words.>> I don't have the speech in front of me, so I say this from memory. But didn't he say that he had an inappropriate affair and that he was willing to do what ever it took to make it right? This sounds to me like an admission of responsibility. I think the difference of opinion is about what the right thing to do is. Mo
