I think it is really, really interesting that the morality of the
nation is being discussed in terms of Bill Clinton's personal, sexual
behavior.
Why isn't the morality of the nation being considered in terms of all
it's most successful citizens...dissecting their sex lives, their
divorces, their ethical behavior in both private and corporate
practice (in terms of contributing to the general welfare of the
nation's citizens), their drug use, their military service, their
crimes, the "moral" and "mental health of their families and
children....
Given all the facts we might come up with some interesting polls and
statistics...and an explanation for the cynicism of many of our young
people, which is largely based on their observation that greed,
ruthlessness, the "right connections," and an ability to be totally
unscrupulous are positive "values" for those who would achieve the
outer limits of The American Dream.
Crime has always been an element of success in America. But the
system can be merciless to those who get "caught." By the time
they're teenagers, kids know that.
