Hi Jim

Although you are right in regards to now, I kind of feel the whole episode should have been left under the covers, from the get go.
If Hillary could live with it---??
Needless to say Clinton played wrong and should have kept his zipper up while in such an important position. In my mind no matter what he succeeds to do or not do he will always be remembered as a joke, sick one at that.

Jim, the Russian/Lewinsky AP wire story follows. I couldn't believe it was really true so I wandered over to AP's net site.
wire.ap.org

What is really scary is I think those bonehead Ruskies are serious about the Lewinsky biz. I guess Chernobyl had a few more effects than anyone dreamed of. -ng-

Russia May Ask Lewinsky for Help

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian legislators considered a motion Thursday appealing to Monica Lewinsky to help halt the American attack on Iraq.

''The State Duma appeals to Ms. Lewinsky to undertake corresponding
measures to restrain the emotions of Bill Clinton,'' said the motion by nationalist lawmaker Alexander Filatov.

Lawmakers in the Duma, the lower chamber of parliament, considered
including the motion in a broader resolution denouncing the attack on Iraq. But seeking to speed up passage of the resolution, they approved it later Thursday without any additions. There was no separate vote on the Lewinsky amendment.

The attack by the United States and Britain on Iraq was condemned by
almost all major political groups in Russia. The Communists, the largest party in the Duma, also mentioned Clinton and his relationship with the former White House intern.

''Many people link it with Clinton's impeachment and his intimate relations with a certain person, but if these relations develop into such acts of vandalism, than all of U.S. democracy is worth a penny,'' Communist leader Gennady Zyuganov told a Duma debate on the Iraqi crisis.
