Daniel, while you apparently did find the squalid details of Clinton's sexual escapades in the Oval Office enjoyable and titillating reading, I did not, and never have I indicated such. I didn't find the Starr report's purple prose titillating reading. I must confess, I haven't read it, period. I read the news about it. That, and the fact that he apparently wasn't able to come up with anything else to report on out of the whole anti-Clinton industry he was at the center off, left me with little interest in the squalid details. I get enough of the squalid details reading this august forum. And lest anyone say how can I talk about any of this, without reading the relevant "facts", I was willing to concede perjury by Clinton on the matter. Even if it was as clear cut as you guys make it out to be, I wouldn't consider it cause for impeachment, considering it came out of a moribund civil suit, initiated by Starr, for political purposes, on a matter that has nothing to do with Clinton's Presidential duties. Of course, Doug has told us that the basis for the perjury claims is somewhat dubious too, but he's the lawyer, not me.You make bold presumptions of others, then pass judgement on whether your conclusions of me meet my own Christian standards. Is your conclusion that I found the Starr report's sordid details "enjoyable" based on your own arousal upon reading the Starr report? Now who's presuming something here? I presumed that you enjoyed the details of the Starr report based on your apparent pleasure in bashing Clinton on any grounds you can come up with. Or do you find you "Clinton as Caligula" comparison somehow contributed to elevating the sorry level of political dialogue our country is engaged in? It all sounded mighty darn Christian to me.
