I am absolutely sick to death of every Republican pointing at Bill Clinton for exploits by their party members, which clearly are much worse, and shouldn't even be named in the same breathe with what President Clinton did. Yes, Clinton denied it under oath, in a "weasly" kind of way. But he played around with a grown adult. Yes, it was immoral, yes, it betrayed his marriage to his wife. No, he was not the first, or the last to have an extra marital affair while sitting in the White House.
You be the judge (and jury).......
A Philadelphia Inquirer article characterized an admitted affair between Rep. Don Sherwood (R)and a "woman in her 20s" as "Clintonian," even though the affair was reportedly exposed as a result of allegations that Sherwood had "repeatedly choked and "attempted to strangle" his former mistress.
Moral Majority Coalition founder and chairman Rev. Jerry Falwell declared that the scandal surrounding former Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL) is "not going to discourage any evangelicals I know from voting" because "we lived through Bill Clinton, and this situation with Foley is minuscule in comparison." Foley allegedly sent sexually explicit Internet communications to underage former House pages, while former President Bill Clinton had an affair with an adult.
Wonderful, the chairman of the Moral Majority Coalition downplaying an attempt to seduce underage children. What is this world coming to, when the religious leaders come to the defense of someone like this. I won't even go into the Catholic Priest situations. How about recent news that Rev. Haggard solicited the company of a gay prostitute and used him to purchase
methamphetamine — a drug used in some gay circles to heighten sexual sensation. Oh, but it is OK, he said he "was tempted", but never used the drug, and only hired the gay prostitute for "massages."
