But in that case, what holds true for President Clinton must hold equally true of the august figure who leads the committee sitting in judgment upon him -- Rep. Henry Hyde. If the public has a right to know, in excruciating detail, about Clinton's sexual life, then surely it has an equal right to know about the private life of the man who called the family "the surest basis of civil order, the strongest foundation for free enterprise, the safest home of freedom" Would that be your family Mr. Hyde, or the family of the beautician you are shacking up with? Oh and by the way, I dont think its really fair to call that family "the safest home of freedom" if your wife finds out.... heh

While as a general matter I am very much opposed to prying into the private lives of political figures (or anyone else), there is a certain justice to the House Republicans getting some of what they're giving. Hypocrisy in the morally self righteous is especially infuriating, and hateful, is it not? I also very much doubt if Clinton or his high lieutenants have been behind these revelations. Too much to loose. While at the same time, I'm sure they are secretly licked to death, under the circumstances. Unlike the Republicans, I really don't think they would have been if the Republicans hadn't started this with a vengeance. From the leaking to the tabloid media (as the only first takers) of the Jennifer Flowers story, to the finding, directing, and funding of Paula Jones and her famous frivolous suit. Doug

In ancient Rome, the centurions of the Praetorian Guard "made" and "unmade" the Caesars. I don't think that the Salon guys are aware of this small "detail".
