The point is that interns who did not blow the president did not get favorable job treatment or offers. What's so hard for you to understand?

Michelle, you really don't see a problem here, do you? Sure, people get jobs all the time through personal connections. It's called "networking."

When people use government jobs in return for sexual favors or as a cover up of such behavior, that's called many things, including "cover up," "conspiracy," and in it's simplest form, "sexual harassment." Do you really think all of this government time and resources would have been spent trying to find poor Monica a job if she hadn't already been displaying her talents for the President, who was worried that she might tell someone about it?

For those who want to split hairs about whether this is harassment, please enlighten with the legal definition of sexual harassment. Or, at least tell us NOW's definition of this suddenly elusive concept. (Gee, it seemed to have much broader implications during Anita Hill's media run for glory, including "the creation of an uncomfortable work environment." Please. I don't think Clarence ever dropped trou in front of Anita, did he?)
