hey doug arent you a lawyer? These guys have been trying to tell me that BCs affair (the affair itself not the cooked up "perjury" charge) is illegal because it is an employer/subordinate thing. But on my favorite lawyer TV show one of the partners is dating an associate who is 15 yrs younger and it says in the credits that the scripts for the shows are reviewed by 4 law firms in the LA area for correctness. In your opinion, is having an affair with a subordinate from the office sexual harassment or not (assuming both parties are interested)? Sorry for this TV show reference but since law is not my vocation I have very little else with which to dispute some of the claims here. Michelle

Yeah, the best thing about ideology is it lets you get a bunch of people onto your wagon. Then you can take them where you want to go to. I believe I've said it before, Clinton will be forced out because of things much more serious than what we have seen so far. The thing to remember is that the news organizations that were in the lead on the Lewinsky matter were also the first to report far worse things. Things that are only now being hinted at in court, and that the president is not yet charged with. Wait until the President gets impeachment charges based on the actions of his secret police. Then bury him. I don't think that what has been shown so far is bad enough to convince 2/3 of the senate. The president's supporters want to talk about polls. So the people have not yet decided he has to go. Does the White House want us to believe that fewer people want him out now than before the first Starr report? It is obvious which way the momentum is going. It wasn't too long ago that the President's defenders were saying "He hasn't been charged with anything." The amazing thing was that they were saying that while the President's friends were being put in jail. Now they are reduced to saying "He hasn't been charged with anything really serious." -- Carl
