Good to see the favored published source of the right, the objective and informative Washington Times, being cited here again. But again, since you too seem to be going for the sanctimonious moralization route, perhaps you could dissect this flawed moral judgement.

So on one side we have the physical and ethical gropings of Bill Clinton. But on the other are the hidden tape recorders and pornographic inquiries of Ken Starr. What most people decided this year is that if those are our choices, then Clinton at his most unbuckled and slippery is still less a threat to American values than Starr. They decided that Starr's questions are worse than Clinton's lies. That's a moral judgment too.

Yes, President Clinton has every right to think (as does Larry Flynt and nearly 75% of the people in America, I might add) that this is ALL about sex; nothing less, nothing more.

As for the, "We must put aside the politics of personal destruction" comment, it is up to the Republicans to call it off, or carry it on.

Grant wasn't considered a great president. His administration was also noted for scandals.
