'cool- Interesting web-site. I saw no reference to Henry Hyde- did I miss it, or were you just engaging in a little gratuitous smear against him with nothing to substantiate it? I guess he had an adulterous affair, which while not good, does necessarily not cast him out of tribe of honorable men IMO. My recent posts have made it clear what I think of those who impugn people's character without bothering to justify it. BTW, I think I largely disagree with Hyde's politics. It is indeed curious that you label someone like Hyde a "sleaze bag" without substantiating your claim, yet I doubt he holds a candle to Bill Clinton, whom you defend? Are your standards on the subject simply the product of whose politics you admire and whose you dislike? Are you a hypocrite? Newt may not be a man for all seasons. I asked you to substantiate your characterization of him, however. <<don't you think Bill's sex life is Hillary's business not yours.>> Bill has made it his business in life to make sure that his sex life is the business of innumerable people. Serves his right that it now garners the attention of more people than he wanted! <<75% --you have a funny sense of democracy>> And you have a corrupt sense of right and wrong if you think polls are a worthy guide.

Your logic is this? OJ killed his wife but it's not so bad because that's between he and Nicole, right? And maybe we can find other low lifes that have killed their wives who got away with it and just maybe one of the jurors sitting in the juror box also killed his wife, got away with it, therefore its ok if we all killed our wives because there's no one out there who either hasn't done it or would like to do it. Everyone is guilty of something so there's no reason to judge anyone for anything? What a terrific philosophy to live by.

don't you think Bill's sex life is Hillary's business not yours. If Bill's sex life was confined to Hillary, then yes. Unfortunately, it spilled over onto the hired help. Then when called to account for it by Mrs. Jones ( her legal right ), he lied ( under oath ), got other people to lie ( under oath ), and then, using the power of his office, given to him in sacred trust by the American People to be used only for the benefit of the American People, did everything in his power to obstruct the accounting. IF that isn't our business than nothing is.
