Yes, we all know your life is so- what's that word? Full of hate? Don't have to worry about old Billy Boy moving on, do we? But you're so creative in your DIRECT NAME CALLING. A true prince, my little liar Billy Boy. Maybe you'd like to treat the assembled moralists to your impressive list of synonyms for idiot, always at your disposal when some, er, indirect name calling is required. In my direction or in that of any other random member of the stupid 2/3 who needs to be told that they're stupid, and you're not. Only 20 months to the next election! A number of moderate Republicans pointed out that many of their party brethren loathe the President so passionately that they simply cannot conceive that people of good will could feel otherwise. Given their own scorn, they cannot admit that most Americans disagree with them without feeling contempt for the people themselves, an emotion very few politicians permit themselves to express. Tom DeLay, the Republican majority whip and the leader of the party's Clinton-hating faction, insisted in a speech before the House that impeachment was a matter of "relativism versus absolute truth." Given the choice, Americans, it turned out, preferred a tolerant and forgiving relativism. Not being a politician, you don't have to worry about permitting yourself to feel contempt, do you Billy Boy? It's only a problem if any of your voluminous contempt happens to get reflected back. Then it's just not fair, right, Billy Boy?
