<<What do you mean he admitted it? Clinton confessed better than Hyde did. >>

Clinton admitted to an "improper relationship". We still don't know what that relationship consisted of, since he denies it was sex, and we don't know what was improper about it. In other words, he admitted to nothing, and denied the one thing we thought we knew. Hyde has not denied having an affair. As a matter of fact, he confirmed the story that Salon printed. The fact that he chose old fashioned euphemisms doesn't bother me, since the guy is in his 70's. People used to talk nicer back then.

<<And he's completely abusing the legal process by threatening to refer this matter to the Dept of Justice>>

This is interesting - I had no idea that Hyde had made such a threat. What would the basis be for referring this to the DOJ? If no crime is alleged, it can't very well be given to the DOJ to investigate.
