...When it comes to impeaching the President, there's no justice, just politics. With the Pope in town on January 26 as the star of a perfectly-orchestrated series of Clinton photo-ops, the Senate is, well, too scared to have witnesses souring the national mood with tales of oral sex and other White House malfeasances. Making it a real trial, with real witnesses -- however better that might play in the history books -- just isn't a priority. And the Constitution doesn't mind...
...years, when all this nonsense was going on. You know what I mean, this whole mind-set: screw everybody you want. Don't have a husband if you have a baby. Walk out on relationships.

In 1998, thanks to Bill and Monica, we all learned something surprising about ourselves. That...
...House exhumed some of the most partisan veterans of the 1974 Judiciary Committee. Wayne Owens, a former Democratic member from Utah, said it was the current committee's fault that "they gave to America, to the seven- and eight-year-olds, the knowledge or raised the question of what oral sex is, what telephone sex is and what you can do with a cigar sexually." And Father Robert Drinan, the ultraliberal former member from Massachusetts, predicted that the committee would "go down in the history books as one that was dominated by vindictiveness and by vengeance and by partisanship."
