According to the Republicans Who Want You To Believe Them Really Bad, their concern is not where the Presidential Penis was finding warmth and comfort; the issue is supposed to be his habitual lying about it, when lies in such places (like big-time court) are federal offenses.
The theory is: If he lied about this, he'll lie about anything.
My point is, does it reall matter, if the lie was not about an illegal activity?

The same reason the press didn't bring up the infidelity of any of the presidents before him. The press didn't use to think that absolutely
everything that goes on is their business to stick their noses in and report on.
Sooz Sez:
---------
The theory is: If he lied about this, he'll lie about anything.
My point is, does it reall matter, if the lie was not about an illegal activity?
---------
Remember that this whole thing started with the Whitewater investigation, which is what Starr got put on the job to investigate. The original question was whether or not the President (and first lady) was lying about his involvement in Whitewater, concealing evidence or otherwise obstructing justice in regards that issue which is pretty illegal and generally uncool. Monica L. became an issue when, via Linda Tripp, when Monica was supposedly told or pursuaded to lie to the grand jury by the President about their alleged sexual encounter. If true then THAT is illegal (the lie that is) and both Monica L. and the President would be in trouble...unless Monica got immunity. How did we get from whitewater to Monica L? Via Star following up on allegations of sexual harrasment by the President of..er..Jennifer Flowers which he denies. The logic? Shows a pattern of behavior that may lend credibility to Flowers' story and bring the President's honesty into question which leads back to his believability in the whitewater testimony.
On the issue of infidelity, if true, no Federal law has been broken (although I've heard there may be a D.C. statute but I don't really care enough to look it up). However, if he has lied under oath about his infidelity, that IS illegal. It also could be used to impeach his credibility in testimony about whitewater, which opens up a WHOLE OTHER nasty can of worms. If he coerced, pursuaded, bribed, or otherwise got someone to lie to a grand jury about ANYTHING, THAT is ALSO illegal and could likewise be used to impeach his testimony in whitewater.
So yes, your correct about the theory being that "If he lied about this, he'll lie about anything". However, you've got to remember this all goes back to the President's credibility in whitewater testimony and the possibility of tampering with people testifying before the grand jury, not the infidelity itself.
Personally, I don't care what Cliton does with the Presidential Penis. If Hillary is okay with it, and no laws are broken, why should I care? I think they should just come out and announce they're swingers in an open marriage.
On the other hand, if he's committed perjury or had other people commit perjury, THAT is a problem I care about. But I'm kinda' funny that way.
Sorry...didn't mean to go on so long.

By mistake, I heard Rush today, for about a minute and a half. He claims to have a well-placed source who swears that the president will testify that Monica would, indeed, suck on him, but she wouldn't finish the job... he'd go off by himself and do that, but he may have accidentally left a telltale stain on a dress.
So, whoever said up there that this was similar to the "I didn't inhale" thing is so, so right. Provided, that is, that Rush is right, and I have a hart time believing that, as well.

My opinion on this matter has been all over the map. Initially I was ready to bounce Clinton out of office when the Lewinsky story broke, simply because it clearly showed piss-poor judgement on his part. I mean, he's been under such tremendous scrutiny throughout his presidency for his sexual improprieties, and yet he *still* carries on like this? And if he did, intentionally or not, coerce someone else to lie under oath, oooh man, that's bad.
Now, I'm ready for the story to just disappear. I can even forgive perjury. I think he's a dumbass for continually getting his penis caught in the cookie jar, but think about it. Nookie has absolutely nothing to do with his effectiveness as president. It's his private life, and whether or not we view it as morally wrong, if we *didn't* know about it it wouldn't make a bit of difference.
But we *do* know about, so it'll certainly be interesting to watch this thing unfold/unravel/explode. I could *forgive* him the lies for this; I can sorta understand how someone could essentially be saying "fuck you, it's none of your business," but it comes out as "I never had improper sexual relations with 'that woman.'" I can *sympathize* with how he got into this mess.
But I'll reserve judgement until I hear what he actually says next week. If he pulls it off, it will truly be masterful... he will be the greatest Politician we've ever had in the Oval Office. If he can do it, I'm ready to forgive and forget.
Because frankly, it never was any of my business.

on a related but completely different note... Ol' Willy is just fucking amazing. one day he does something right, the next day he steps on his crank so hard it's a wonder monica could find anything to suck ON.....
current example:
a couple three weeks ago, the clinton administration decided that, after a year of selling oil out of the stratiegic petroleum reserves, they would instead BUY oil for it. Obstensibly this was to shore up the price of oil but they bought far too little to do anything for the price of oil. but really, it boiled down to the fact that the price of oil is so low, NOW is the time to load up on it. fine with me, I mean, isn't that what you are SUPPOSED to do? buy low and sell high?
then, last week, they go and open up the alaska national petroleum reserve to new drilling, like ANYBODY can afford to drill new holes right now! lets face it, I'm almost out of a job right now because nobody is buying oil rigs right now. does this make sense to YOU?

Okay, boys and girls, here's your first installment of what will probably become a regular diatribe by yours truly. For me, this will allow me to get things off of my chest and maybe offer food for thought. You may be inclined to toss this in your cyber trash (Hey, did I just coin a new computerese phrase?!?) and that's okay too. Ready? Set! Here I GO!.....
Our fearless fox of a leader is in trouble - not for what he did with a woman in the oval office, but rather for what he said to a woman sitting behind a bench wearing a black robe. He lied under oath. What he lied about is irrelevant. He could have lied about what he had for breakfast that morning or about who he placed bets on in the super bowl, it wouldn't have made any difference. It is a felony to lie before a federal judge and a jury. If the chief law enforcement officer of the land gets away with a felonious act, it sends a bad message down through the ranks of our legal system. This is why umpteen judges and Janet Reno have all turned Ken Starr loose. They know that this is what's at stake.
The press wants to focus everything on sex because their establishment is crazed by it. Remember, it was their self-righteous bunch that introduced us to "Free Love", bra burnings, Playboy, and the "Love Boat". Most of them will not acknowledge nor accept the real facts of what this is all about: A challenge to our Constitutionally sanctioned legal system. Their media darling "Baby Boomer Prez." has indulged in a lifestyle they authored and it has Baby-boomeranged on them! The freedoms that they may have fought for in the 60's have to also come with responsibilities. Freedom with out morals or self control is the blue print for anarchy.
It will be interesting to see what kind of huevos Congress will have to do anything about a very corrupt administration. This will be a ticklish time for them as well with the fall elections looming around the corner.
By the way, those of you between the ages of 36 and 18 are the largest group of Americans to ever have the power to vote. That's right, there are 80 million of you Gen xer's out there. Your voting power could topple our government if you ever decided to do so, and you better believe that this current bunch up in D.C. knows this. Wall Street certainly does. This is why they have spent fortunes of money studying your demographics. They also know many of you are coming of age and stepping into the drivers seats of many organizations and companies. You're movers and shakers who are probably the most independent minded bunch since the American revolution and just like our fathers your breeding grounds of politics faith and decent are in places where beverages are consumed. Not taverns, but coffeehouses. You don't use printing presses to distribute your rhetoric but PC's. Oh yes, your a dangerous bunch to the elite power broking "monarchs".
If you don't finance their pious endeavors with your ever increasing tax burden, and inflationary prices, you take all off the fuel out of their agenda.
No Beavis, this is not about sex, this is about a group of powerful people who will not or cannot embrace or uphold the truth, though they know it. They are the most dangerous of hypocrites because they hold themselves out as keepers of justice and freedom but inside, they are full of corruption and tyranny.
Until next time, keep the faith.

I mean you married hillary cuz you thought you could use her contacts to further your career, she of couse did the same.... it was obvious it was a marriage of convienience, not love. you probably haven't gotten any from her since the inaugrual. and then it was with four of her secret service detail there to user you out ten seconds after you finished....
now we fast forward to that afternoon in the oval office bathroom.... she was young, obviously wanting to experience some of that "presidential power".... ok so she was a bit dumpy looking... hell, you've done worse... no wonder socks doesn't respect you anymore....
ok now you're in front of a judge... to admit you did it could ruin your career... but not admiting it could too..... you're thinking to yourself, what evidence do they have? did I dribble it on her chin? surely she's had that dress dry cleaned by now.... the secret service won't talk. they haven't in the 150+ years they have been in existance!

If he had come out in the beginning, I mean the VERY beginning, and said to the world "My personal sex life is my fuckin' business, not yours, if you don't like that, impeach my ass. I double-dog DARE you!" I would have TONS more respect for the guy personally. If it's a matter of protecting my personal life or another's confidentiality, I would like to believe I would have the strength of my convictions and personal sense of honor, to put my administration in the hands of the people. Afterall, IF I believe THAT strongly about it, shouldn't I be prepared to risk giving up my office, rather that impinge upon the dignity of the office of the Presidency, yes? If impeached I've at least upheld my convictions AND upheld the dignity of the office.
Now the sticky part about the 'lying to protect his personal privacy' bit is IF, in fact, he IS guilty of sexual harrasment against Paula Jones. Raises the question of where does his right to privacy end and her rights begin? Regardless of whether she is or is not "Arkansas Trailer Park Trash".... And does the fact that he is the President of the United States allow him some latitude or immunity from prosecution? And if so, to what degree?

You guys here don't remember that? November 1987. The good old days - when a Republican was in the Whitehouse!

Yes, those carefree days before we'd lost our innocence. Before all the lying and killing started, back when morals MEANT something.

The next time I hear some idiot right-wing Rushite say they long for the values that families had in the '50's, I'll remind them that we also had separate drinking fountains and dinette counters then, too. Damn.
These ARE the good ol' days.

I remember the good 'ol days of 48 B.C. Those were the days. Caesar, Brutus, Pompey, Gaius Octavius. Oh what a crazy bunch of knucklehead those guys were.

It's also worth pointing out that the 50's had an incredibly high level of teen pregnancy.

I was quite pleased to discover that mom and pops had kept the "master" of the show in their sentimental archives.
Pretty funny as I look back on it - 100 lbs lighter, dyed hair, and still writing music.
Geez, a lot can happen in 10 years.
