Sorry folks - my 0.02¢ Delete now if not interested. Especially those 
outside the US.

I don't usually get into politics but I just gotta say this. I lived in 
Arkansas while the mentioned was Gov. He was a good Gov, as far as I was 
concerned, mostly focused on bringing a low rated education system up to 
better standards. Everybody knew what the heck was going on "behind 
closed doors" as they say. But that did not matter one whit about the job 
he did. Now when it happens in Washington, where he was absolutely not 
the first to indulge, just the most media spread, the rest of the country 
goes nuts. We that lived in AR never understood the attention. In the 
rest of the world, nobody understood what all the ruckus was about, they 
all do the same thing on a regular basis. In fact in some froggy 
countries - it is expected. Not necessarily condoned, just expected.

Now let me make it clear. I do not condone what happened, I condemn the 
over saturation of it by the media, and our so called elected 
representatives who have nothing better to do than play "get the 
Democrat" if they are an elephant, and "get the Republican", if they are 
a donkey. Funny how those labels fit, elephants never forget and donkeys 
are just asses.

What the hell ever happened to doing the country's business in a cordial 
manner. As I recall the 2 branches of the legislature were designed so 
that, as I believe, (to paraphrase Jefferson) one would be for stately 
debate and the other for rowdy argument. What the hell happened to 
stately debate???

I have to blame Tricky Dicky for this sorry state of affairs in the US 
government. Right or wrong, if he had said he had no idea what the 
CREEP's were doing and fired them all, the media would have had nothing 
to report (and subsequentialy not so much need to over investigate every 
personal thing) and the group known as the opposite of progress would 
have had no belief that they were the only people that could run a 
consciensable government (HAH). Ever check their records? 

That's not to say that there isn't a need for a good media invesitagating 
worthwhile stories, but when did somebodies sex life become more 
important than, say, thousands of kids being killed every year by (fill 
in the blank here). Or overspending by certain branches of the 
government. Or????????? Just 'cuz we don't want to hear it, don't mean it 
shouldn't be reported. Oh Sorry the ratings might fall - I forgot. 

Ya wanna know why we get such jerks as Gore and Bush as candidates?? 
Instead of the Jefferson's and Washington's and Roosevelt's and 
Lincoln's. Who the hell in their right mind would wanna go through that 
crap???

A wise man once said "there are two things you do not discuss in a public 
forum, politics and religion" I just broke one rule - anyone wanna talk 
about religion?

BTW Mike - On the web you can say anything, But do YOU believe everything 
you read?? Another wise man once said "believe 1/2 of what you see and 
none of what you read."

BTW not necessarily the right place to post the story in the first place, 
but the fact that it was stated to be NO LBC, makes it OK in my book. 
This is, after all, as has been mentioned before, a community and we all 
have the right to our opinions. 



Political rant mode off - Flame suit on.
