If Clinton had taken nude photos, no matter the reason, the reaction here would have been nuclear. The double standard here is blatant.

I am gradually realizing that about 85% of the Schwarzenegger support is not much more than mindless star worship, and that there is absolutely nothing short of him being involved in some sort of murder-cannibalism scandal that will change the minds of most of his supporters.

It's not a double standard unless you accept that Clinton would be as likely to be approached to be in such photos as was Schwarzenegger. Why would some pasty flabby guy agree to do it? Interesting that you think Clinton somehow would or could have done so, though.

You're really, really reaching.

BTW (and slightly OT): I read somewhere that Bush 41, along with many other folks who were students at elite colleges like Yale in the 1940s, were photographed unclothed for some wacko-sounding research project. Is this an urban legend? (It doesn't really relate to the Arnold photos, which clearly were understood by him to be meant for publication in an adult magazine.)
