...fame is exposing former Congressman Wayne Hays and his "assistant" Elizabeth Ray ("I can't type...I can't even answer the phone"), and Paula Parkinson, who didn't play golf but teed up on an outing to Florida with top Republicans.

Perhaps. The Tomahawks' sophisticated systems make them ideal for such pinpoint attacks. Their onboard computers are programmed with highly detailed radar maps to the target, and they coordinate with satellites to make sure the missiles are in the right place.

...people's trust was matched by a weakness for bestowing it. Worse, the person she chose to trust the most had a singular gift for eliciting confessions--and filing them away for later use. Playing the experienced mother superior to Lewinsky's bubbly flying nun, Linda Tripp was the ideal repository for the younger woman's schemes and dreams. Once, in the wee hours of the morning, when Tripp was sleeping over at Lewinsky's apartment, Lewinsky was called by the President, she testified, for what may have been a round of phone sex.
