Rb, Absolutely amazing. You even seem to believe what you're posting. Have you forgotten that Starr was empowered to investigate Whitewater? ... and according to his own report found absolutely nothing. Not being able to find any real criminal wrongdoing, Starr entrapped your President on the sexual achilles heel. All I can say is, "Grow Up". As Reagan got off scotfree after arming the Contras, it would seem to me that a private affair is a much less serious offense than that. The Republicans set the bar a few years ago re what they'd tolerate in terms of presidential wrongdoing. Clinton's misdemeanors don't even come close. The vast majority of the American Public has a profound Jeffersonian mistrust of Government. Wasn't Jefferson one of the 9 presidents known to have had affairs while in office. It's not as if Clinton was breaking new ground here. And what gentleman, president or otherwise, tells the truth about extramarital affairs? It seems that one of the two of us isn't living in the real world. Anyone brought up in the USA or Canada at the time that Clinton was, knows that only a Cad would discuss such matters. ... and Starr knew full well what values would win out. While I'd love to see MO's price go straight to about $3000 / share, I don't think I'll count on President Clinton's good or bad fortune to get it there.
