I have always felt that the failure of the Senate to convict William Jefferson Blythe Clinton was both the cause and effect of a moral disintegration in America the consequences of which we will experience for generations.

I’m betting you have full understanding of exactly why it was they just could not bring themselves to convict him.

Amen to that. His unpunished crimes made it easier for executives of major corporations to justify their criminal actions, IMHO. I'm not painting them with the liberal brush of "They're corporate leaders, so they must be guilty". I just seem to remember that there were an inordinate number of corporate scandals during his era.

The failure of the Senate to convict Clinton was just one of many reasons. Myself, I tend to blame the media mostly for the loosening of the standards of acceptability. Then the lack of self-assurance that if you stood up and complained you wouldn’t have any supporters. Most people only need to be asked to join in. Sometimes a quick reminder that you are doing something for your kids will get them off their butts.
