After reading Pam's GOP cornucopia of carnal scandal this morning, I suddenly realized why the right went into such fits about Bill Clinton's sex life. Oh yes, some of it was the right's sense of entitlement to ALL the power, and their view of the southerner who wasn't in their club as a usurper to the throne. But with all the investigations, why go after sex?
In the wake of Mark Foley, David Vitter, former Spokane Mayor Jim West, Don Sherwood, Ted Haggard, USAID head Randall Tobias, and many others, with Florida State Rep. and McCain operative Bob Allen only the latest, we know know just how sexually screwed up the most vociferous advocates of sexual restraint are.
That Bill Clinton was a randy fellow was no great secret. But his own inability to control his sexual appetites opened the door in these hypocrites to their own failings and made them even more difficult to control. And that's why he had to be destroyed.
Perhaps we would be kinder to these guys if they would stop demanding that other people suppress in themselves what they themselves are unable to.
