This is a prime example of leftist revisionist history.

The clinton buddies took her to court, remember?

It was not illegal. Please quit making things up because you want them
that way.


The charges against Linda Tripp were dismissed, but, in Maryland, taping
another person without their permission, *is* illegal. I don't believe
Chuck was using the word "guilty" as in a court of law. We all know that
Clinton was "guilty" of adultery. We didn't need a court to tell us that.

I seem to remember it was not a charge involving Monica L. Was a charge and
suit in court regards Paula Jones and Sexual Harassment. Monica was just
another example of WJC's predatory desires on not so beautiful women. And
the LIE was in the court where WJC was being sued for telling a state
employee that was not willing like Kneepads Lewinski to have sex with the
boss to have sex with him.

Get your facts straight. No one "leaked" anything. A bug was discovered
in the mayor's office during a security sweep. A bug which required a
federal judge to approve. A judge does not grant approval lightly. There
has to be ample evidence. This investigation has been on going for 2
years now.

I'm sure plenty of people saw this (and rightly so) as
a smear tactic.


They did see it that way, but they were wrong, and had they the

understand why they were wrong.

I find it amusing in a warped sort of pathetic way how the left would
spend so much time actively demoninzing the whistle blower, than in the

Ok, let's compa

Clinton, (at this point) was guilty of adultery. A "crime," technically, and
one that effected little more than his marriage.
He was also guilty of bad judgment, (having an affiar with an employee), and
some would say poor taste in women.

Tripp was guilty of illegally taping a phone conversation without the other
party's consent. A definite crime. Isn't it a Class C felony? She was also
guilty of betraying a friend's confidence, merely to be able to publicize a
scandal.


What you call "publicizing a scandel" I call providing evidence of an
inpropriety.



If someone alerts the authorities that a
crime or inpropriety has been committed, they should be commended for
shining the light on in.


Do your turn in all your friends and neighbors every time you observe an
"impropriety"? I doubt it.


I would if it were as serious as to involve the president of the
country.



You dislike Linda Tripp, because it was the final brick that brought
down Clinton.


???????????????

Clinton was "brought down" by the expiration of his second term. His popularity
remained so high that if he had been able to run for a third term, he'd still
be POTUS today.


His popularity was never as high as Bush's. I doubt if he would've won a
third term. People were pretty much disgusted with his philandering and
other shady dealings. Part of the reason that Bush won was that ther
people were sick of Clinton/Gore, and saw Gore as an extention of
Clinton.



I lost my enthusiam for Clinton when he lied about the nature
of his relationship with Monica, but the majority of the country did not.


Where do you live? Most of the people in my area lost "enthusiasm" for
Clinton the week after his first term started. His record was not all
that stellar. Gay's in the military, a failed attempt at socialized
medical care, and NAFTA, were his biggest achievements. Then there was
the issue of China.....


Would you be so harsh if Linda Tripp suddenly brought
forth evidence that would bring down GW Bush?


You don't get it at all. Tripp's issue was that she sold out a friend.
She...sold out...a....friend....... Is that OK as long as it damages a
Democratic politcian?


It's ok as long as she helped to thwart a crime. If I had a fried who
robbed a bank, and I found out about it. Do I keep his secret (And by
doing so become a willing accomplice) or report him to the LEO? What
would you do?


GW Bush in is the midst of self destructing. Nobody needs to "bring him down".
His cabinet may save him. We'll just have to see.


No human should be expected to know all possible outcomes in any
situation. GWB made the right decision. Despite all the mud that power
hungry democrats may be slinging, in their irresponsible attempt to
seize political power at the expense of our military and the people, the
president made the right decision. Some of the reasons may be a little
less than clear cut, but it have to be done. If not now, then eventually
much later, when our military advantage would not be as great.

I know, it's trick question. If you answer it no, then you are branded
as a hypocritical partisan. Answer yes, and you become the poster boy
for the growing trend toward rejection of justice by people who think
that some people have a right to "get away" with shady dealings.


If I answer that selling out a friend, merely to reveal a scandalous adultery
by a third party, is a low-life thing to do, what then?


Then you reveal that confidences are more important to you, than
following the law.



Just like the Mayor's race here in Philly, the fact that the mayor was a
subject of a federal investigation, made people want to vote for him.
Instead of questioning his ethincs, the people instead viewed the
investigation as a "smear tactic".


Could have been. I don't know the particulars. Wouldn't have been the first
time such a technique was used if it was a smear.

Some people would rather have a crook
in office, than support the agencies who prosecute those indiscretions.



How is he a crook? What has he been convicted of? Why is "supporting the
agencies" autmatically a better choice than examining the facts and trying to
draw an informed conclusion?


The conclusions were drawn alright. Unfortunately they were not based on
the facts, the evidence, or any logical basis. The conclusiuons were
automatically made that the investigation was a farce, and a smear
tactic, and given the double shot of being both partisan and racist (The
mayor is black). No consideration was given to the fact that the bug
planted by the feds had to be approved by a judge, and that in order for
the judge to approve it, probable cause had to be demonstrated, which
showed that the bug was crucial to the case.
Had the bug not been discovered by a security sweep, the whole case
would not have come to light. Hardly the gamble a "smear" campaign would
want to rely on.

Nonetheless, the conclusions were obvious. The people in Philly would
rather believe that this act was not about law enforcement as much as it
was an attempt to smear a mayor. I would say that this demonstrates a
misplaced sense of priority.




Speaks volumes about the decline in morality that our society has been
going through.


Because "government agencies" are not
accepted without question? Decline away, if so.


When you question every action of law enforcement as dubious, that says
something.

"The aircraft carrier is too far offshore. The President *must* fly out to the

(The carrier was circling, just off San Diego, with the entire crew delayed a

a bomber jacket). :-(

Proven lie.


Proven by who or what? Nowhere have I seen anything other than it was
perhaps a waste of time, and that the president could have waited
another day. I'm sure that this was orchestrated by Bush's PR committee.
So who lied?


We could get into all the claims about Iraq, but there's a tiny amount of
possibility he was just stupidly mistaken.



And that possibility is very real, so accusing him of deliberately lying
or misleading without removing that possibility is intellectually
irresponsible.


I'd insist on the benefit of the
doubt for anybody else, so I won't get into the WMD, Saddam & 9-11, and other
claims the administration has since backed down from or events have proven
false. Tossed up, the right wing says "There's a shred of possiblity he wasn't
lying, so you can't *prove* he was." The right wing is technically correct on
this issue.


We base our decisions on our intelligence agencies and past performance
and the psych profile of Saddam. It was very likely that he was hiding/
building WMD. Otherwise why act so belligerent, and evasive, when the
weapon's inspectors were there. If he had nothing to hide, why not allow
full unfettered access?

The argument about abortion is far more a "moral" issue than it is a medical

I guess your opinion is that if you decide you do not want the baby, you can
kill it after you see it is the wrong whatever after delivery. Makes as
much sense as saying you can abort (kill) the baby when it is1/3 out the
mom. This is not abortion, this is murder. Any one with a conscious would
see that. Not like aborting in first trimester.

I think a nurse has some persuasive value in this argument. And I support
legal abortion. Old enough to remember dead girls making the news from back
ally botched abortions. But when a baby is 33% out the mom, and is stabbed
in the head and debrained, that is not abortion. That is a killing! The
sad thing is the amount of abortions. Reaaly sad when it becomes a birth
control method. Enough birth control methods out there to stop the
pregnancy from ever happening.

88 year old mother, a federal prosecutor for about 65 years, says it is

murder."

Did you pick up that burgundy paint for my Four Winns? :)

If you
waited 45 seconds and 14" that baby would be in the doctors arms.

Then
is
it OK to poke it in the head and suck out it's brains? And this is a

lady
who supports abortions.

If you dislike and distrust government so much, then why do you

support
a political ideology which relies on greater governmental control

and
involvement?

The Patrioit Act?
Partial Birth Abortion? (even my 79 yr. old reasonably conservative

mother
says that's an invasion of women's bodies)
Government headcount growing at a faster pace than ever in history?
Bigger Gov't deficits than any other time in history?

Are you assuming I'm a Republican Dave?





Picked up the Burgundy paint for my Jetcraft at San Leandro Color off

Dutton
and E. 14th. $16 and they put it in a spray can for me. I listen to my
mom, don't you.


When she was alive, I *always* listened to my mother--especially when she

taught
me that I should make up my own mind.

I go along with her opinion.


So it would appear--and that's fine; but the *only* point I want to make

about
what you said is that the fact that your mother is 88 years old and a

nurse has
no probative or persuasive value with respect to this highly charged

issue.

Joe Parsons

She has delivered babies. Fi
rst one in first year nurses training to an epileptic mother. She almost
gave up nursing then. Her opinion is it is a viable baby at that the

time
that labor is going on and 8+ months into pregnancy. My Godson was 2#

and
7.5 months at birth. 30 now and going to be a dad himself in May. If it

is
the mom's life that is in danger, why not do a C section or the fact that
the baby continues it birth trip after being stabbed in the head, negates
fact that the mom dies if the baby is born. The Federal prosecutor would
now say it is murder.

I think a nurse has some persuasive value in this argument. And I support
legal abortion. Old enough to remember dead girls making the news from

back
ally botched abortions. But when a baby is 33% out the mom, and is

stabbed
in the head and debrained, that is not abortion. That is a killing! The
sad thing is the amount of abortions. Reaaly sad when it becomes a birth
control method. Enough birth control methods out there to stop the
pregnancy from ever happening.
Bill


Don't worry Bill, this is where Mr. Parsons steps in and says he never
disagreed with you opinion, just the fact that you used your mothers nursing
experience to support your argument.

What have I ever posted to this (or any) newsgroup that might give you the
impression that I am unable or unwilling to express my own opinion?

I'd be much obliged if you would refrain from attempting to speak for me.

Oh, you know how it is, buddy. If JoeTechnician thinks that you are
even a tiny bit left leaning, and able to think for yourself, as
opposed to goose stepping to BushCo, then you are non-human to him.
Yes, it's stupidity, but it's there, non the less.

Godwin's Law /prov./ [Usenet] "As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the
probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one."
There is a tradition in many groups that, once this occurs, that thread
is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever
argument was in progress. Godwin's Law thus practically guarantees the
existence of an upper bound on thread length in those groups.



Wally: Godwin's Law is a canard; when it first was first posted, it was
a funny little piece of doggerel. The fact that you *rely* on it to help
you dispute opinions with which you disagree only goes to show what a
real dumfoch you are.

Here's a simple example for you: someone will liken some idea put in the
head of Bush, the brain-damaged imbecile in the White House, to
something that would have come out of the third reich. You and the rest
of the right-wing pond scum will then *deny* the validity of that posit,
ad nauseum, thus disproving that there is an "upper bound" on thread length.

There isn't a thought in your head worth a plugged nickel, Wally. How
can you live with that?

The argument about abortion is far more a "moral" issue than it is a

medical
one.


You're right, it is, but to stab a hole in the head and suck the brains out
of a baby's head during delivery is murder.


So is starting a war and getting a bunch of innocent people killed murder?
Is having criminals killed, then joking about it murder?
Is death, because of failure to take care of our elderly murder?
