It isn't a question of "moral compass", but of the common understanding of words.

(grin) You want to dismiss Broadrick because you think her promiscuous, this, because of her apparently one case of adultery (which, in today's moral climate about qualifies anyone for sainthood). Well. Since you are such a staunch follower of your "moral compass" (and assuming it points toward what we have traditionally assumed to be virtuous), you must disbelieve every single claim of your President, including his claim not to have raped Broaderick. Oh man, you must be just waiting to give him a nice kick in his lying, oversexed tail. I do wish someone from the left would step forward to admit the hypocrisy of the Democrats here. It would warm my heart to see someone here who really understands this issue and who is willing to admit the truth concerning it. Where are Michelle and Lorrie? I miss these lovely creatures.

<<adultery isn't promiscuous; whatever you say.>> Now that is interesting. I have to challenge you to define it as anything but promiscuity.

Careful John, you're getting dangerously close to saying that Bill Clinton is promiscuous (or have you already ceded that point). >I guess you just have a different moral compass than I have; adultery isn't promiscuous; whatever you say.< They are two different words, in case you didn't notice. Adultery can be a single act, one time, and is by definition against marital vows. Promiscuity is repeated sexual encounters by either married or unmarried individual, with various and several partners during a relatively short time frame. Surely even a liberal Democrat can see the difference between the two words.
