...suppose that most tourists are similar around the globe, but D.C. tourists rank above travelers to any other city. People don't come to Washington to relax or catch a show or see Elvis' house. They flock to the capital to learn, celebrate America and be the best gosh darn patriotic citizens they can be--even the foreigners, which I will never understand.

...gosh, the man lied about having an extramarital affair. Is this not a common instinct for any guilty person? I dare anyone to show me a politician who does not stretch the truth to get elected. Since when do a man's personal affairs affect how he runs a country? Clinton is doing fine and should be left alone.
