I suspect the American appetite for righteousness will not be sated soon. We are titillated, even when we say we're not. There's this problem about recognizing the truth and translating it into meaning. Different people recognize the truth at different times, in different ways and at different rates. Then everyone makes it mean something according to their own experience and values.
Some people never see the truth about certain things.
Some should never have to. While politicians trumpet the need to restore public trust in the Presidency, they have relentlessly pursued a climate designed to undermine all but the most saintly among us. Amongst the calls for redemption and resignation, smugness and righteousness abound. Powerful people lying about adultery is not a new story. Could fill several hour-long slots.
