So... Clinton had to testify about his willie, but * doesn't have to

[mzmolly]

testify about the most tragic intelligence failure our nation has ever known.

Somebody tell me how this makes sense again?

[gWbush is Mabus]

1. it's not about the sex, it's about the lies

[Hav]

2. .

Just shows that we got our priorities straight, I guess...

[corporatewhore]

3. AFLAC!!!

[Laf.La.Dem.]

4. Wrong - he will testify

He will testify for ONE HOUR - if he can find the time between stock car races, campaign fund parties, vacations, flying a jet to an aircraft carrier, etc. etc.

5. I just heard today that he and Condi were following tradition and would

not testify?

I would ask what *tradition* they are referring to as we have never had a national tragedy of this nature.

[bhunt70]

6. nor is there a tradition of presidents and nsa's not testifying.

[mzmolly]

7. That's what I thought? WTF are they talking about?

Must be a new tradition.

8. Their tradition is to make things up as they go along + sex is dirty

As the wingnuts have amply demonstrated over the years, it's (almost) always about sex. Sex is dirty and bad and other people should be punished for it.

Ashcroft just had to cover up that boob on the statue of Justice that had stood there unchallenged for how many decades? A statue full of references to classical Greece and Rome -- no doubt any Art History major could deconstruct the whole thing in a 10-page essay, but all Ashcroft can see is the nekkid tit. It probably still bothers him because it's still there under the draperies. Nekkid.

As a pro-choice person I stood across the street from the hospital a decade ago reading the picket signs of the anti-choice folks, and an amazing number of them made reference to sex. Female sex. Uncontrolled female sex. Unauthorized female sex. Bad, dirty, female sex.

Clinton -- I have to say I'm disappointed in his lack of restraint when he knew the VRWC was gunning for him, but I'm among the millions who think it wasn't our business in the first place. But there the wingnuts had him, and no detail was too salacious to record. And salacious it was: I'm sure the transcript pages were wilted from the sweaty hands of the readers. They couldn't get enough of it, especially the bits about Monica's bad, dirty, female sex.

Ken Starr: Second Grand Inquisitor of the US (the First being Sen. Joe McCarthy). Really put the fear of God into Monica and her mother; the two of them left the deposition practically fainting with terror at the threats made against them.

Let's see: blow job or uncounted lives lost in Iraq? Blow job or Patriot Act? Blow job or LIHOP? My oh my, let's ask the Goddess of Justice to weigh these things on her scales.
