JLA, that's not the point but nice try.

The question should rather be this: if Hyde or Burton, or anyone else---D or R--- was queried about their private life---sexual, medical, otherwise---in a purely political context, would they be as willing to tell the truth? knowing that the truth was to be used as a weapon against them or their agenda and not for its intrinsic value?.

As for Salon being a shill for the WH--not anymore so than the Spectator or Weekly Standard being a shill for the other side of the isle; though I find it interesting that Salon regularly features Horowitz and C.Hitchens---hardly personal or philosophical pals of the Prez. One thinks he's too left, the other, too right.

<<Has Hyde committed perjury, obstruction, etc.? I think in going after Hyde they may be going "a bridge too far." >>

Truly this may be the last straw with a lot of fence-sitting Democrats. If you go after Henry Hyde, you're a gonner, pure and simple. But, now that "scorched earth" is in place, I really want Carville, Lindsey, etc to pay the price, i.e., these scum deserve to be reviled for the pigs they are.
