"Interesting, isn't it? Clinton had Lewinsky; Bush has the "conservatives." Is there nothing they won't say or do for this man? "

Ben Franklin and James Madison foresaw this sort of nonsense two-hundred years of ago, they knew it was bad then and it's still bad now.
Two quotes, from brilliant men, that the people applauding this sort of thing should think about:
"If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy."
-- James Madison
"They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security"
-- Ben Franklin
