Absolutely. In my world, betraying a friend and violating a trusted confidence
is as immoral as a married guy getting a blow job from other than his spouse.
Don't even start swtiching to the "It isn't the blow job, it's the lie!"
argument as far as Tripp is concerned. At the time she violated a friend's
trust and confidence Clinton had not yet lied about the affair, and she had no
way to know that he was going to.

But at the time that Tripp came forward with the secretly recorded

If one of my daughters friends was being sexually abused by the POTUS, I
would certainly take the same course of action as Tripp did. Monica was a

World...all for his sexual gratification, then denying it ever happened.

Clinton potentially put the US at risk by giving into his sexual desires.

Well there you have it, Wally. The post you reference definitely proves that
I'm a nasty, smarmy little man. It's right there in Google, in front of
absolutely everybody.

By the way, the bird was a heron and happy Kwanza was a portion of a phrase
with several seasonal, holiday greetings. You do know what Kwanza is, right?
Next time you cash your paycheck, go look in the greeting card section. (Don't
let the revolving blue light blind you.) I think you'll find Kwanza cards,
Christmas Cards, Hannukkah cards, and more. Which of those holidays or
religious observations is "wrong"?

How shameful that you would mischaracterize such obvious, checkable facts to
make your rickety little point seem stronger.
You're a cheap trick, Wally. A two line insulter with no rebuttal, no debate,
no content; just personal attack. If you have anything better to offer, we'd
probably all love to see it. Any day now would be fine.

Any President or CEO of a company who has an affair with an intern or

smart enough to do it away from the flagpole as the military puts it.
Having a President who has an affair with an intern and gets BJ's while
talking with foreign leaders about serious or even not so serious items is
unfit to be a leader. Army gave the Sergeant Major a demotion and jail time
for affairs with subordinates.

Not odd at all Wally. Not many people would be willing to become
Tripp, even if it came along with a no strings attached $700,000.

In your case, you would be better off trading places with Linda Tripp,
even without the $700,000, considering her decided advantage of having
multiple brain cells.

$700,000 is no money. What a slap in the face! Since she sold out a friend, I
suppose she has something coming. (She'll get it, sooner or later).

Wonder what inflation has done to the value of 30 pieces of silver since 33 AD?
(quick estimated calculation...scratch, scratch, erase, scratch, scratch,
total)......
Oh look! It's just exactly the amount paid to Linda Tripp.


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

You dislike Linda Tripp, because it was the final brick that brought
down Clinton. Would you be so harsh if Linda Tripp suddenly brought
forth evidence that would bring down GW Bush?

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.

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

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

I do not recall Tripp getting on national tv, pointing her finger at us and
telling us an outright lie.

That's right, Bush should be evicted from the White House for lying to us like that.


And when you can provide factual evidence which proves this to be the
case, I'll lead the charge. Otherwise, go back to reading the propaganda
like a good mindless toady.

If one of my daughters friends was being sexually abused by the POTUS, I
would certainly take the same course of action as Tripp did. Monica was a
young impressionable intern taken in by the most powerful man in the
World...all for his sexual gratification, then denying it ever happened.

Clinton potentially put the US at risk by giving into his sexual desires.
Think about it.

Tripp did the right thing.

Yeah, but if you were the guy behind the desk, lonely and adored by a young,
single (male in your case) intern who swooned in your presence, you'd
probably be just as weak as the last goofball in office.


It's still wrong either way. Is your morality that pitifully low, that
you'd excuse such decadent behavior?

"The aircraft carrier is too far offshore. The President *must* fly out to the
carrier in a Navy jet, as the Marine 1 helicopter doesn't have sufficient
range."

(The carrier was circling, just off San Diego, with the entire crew delayed a
day or so returning home after a long deployment so Bush could strut around in
a bomber jacket). :-(

Proven lie.

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

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.

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.

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. 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.

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?

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.

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?

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.

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.

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?

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.

What a sad commentary. She was a friend, but crime may surpass
friendship.
If I knew my good friend robbed the bank, I would have to drop a dime on
him. Actually 1/2 buck now. Would not depend on a reward, but on a
consense.

If you conservatives had a conscience, you'd see that killing
America's young men for votes and oil is wrong.

And if you had a brain. . .
It may be about oil. The Moslem extremists know oil is a very good weapon
against the West. These people have been at war for years with "infidels"
and if you think they are going to go away if we ignore them you are also
crazy as well as stupid. Saddam knew he would have immense power over the
West if he controlled Kuwait. You think this war is new. Look at Kobar
Towers, the barracks in Lebanon, the World Trade Center. The present
administration must be doing something right as we have not be hit again .
.. . yet. And we will be hit again, no matter what happens in concessions
to the extremists.
