Fortunately, I had a few days away from the newspapers and TV, and when I caught a glimpse of Clinton making an apologetic speech today and heard the news folks commenting on it, it was jarring. Maybe it would all have seemed 'normal' to me if I had watched TV over the past few days and had my mind conditioned to accept what was happening. Instead, it was shocking. But that's not what's important. If oval office quickies and marital infidelity become the issues, the president is going to get away with it.
Nobody really cares about sex scandals.
Oh sure, it's entertainment, but we're all human, and a little sexual indiscretion is pretty easy to forgive. And it looks like he told Lewinsky to lie. But on TV I see him telling reporters that he's sorry about what he's put his family through, especially his wife. Ask me something that isn't any of your business, and I have no hesitation about evading or lying. So if Paula Jones' lawyer asks the president if he grabbed her ass or something, he's gotta tell the truth.
