-Caveat Lector- In a message dated 07/04/1999 10:26:37 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Are you saying Clinton did not lie at that particular time or has not lied at all? I remember his saying that if a score card had been kept, he would have gotten a pretty good score because he had told the truth to the American people more than he had lied to them. His own words. That may be just peachy with you but for some of us, it is not good enough. Some of us are against lying all the time. I'm against anyone lying at any time. I'm against anyone fudging the truth any time. If you look at the definition of sodomy, you will see that "technically" Clinton did not lie (at that time). That seems to be what our country is now all about. All politicians seem to lie, and most of them lie all the time. It has never been my contention that Clinton is a "good guy." He's no better than any other politician, and that's where the rub lies. The Press has jumped him over and over for the very same thing that every other president has done, and has acted as though it's a terrible thing because Clinton did it, but when the others did it, it was just "one of those things." It's the sheer hypocrisy that boils me. It doesn't seem to bother anyone else. Clinton's mistress was a sin against humanity, but Bush's was just a nice lady he knew exceptionally well. Clinton's possible pot smoking was the worst thing that ever happened, but Kennedy's was just a little relaxation. The firing of Billy Dale was the most heinous act ever committed, and he was perfectly innocent. Okay? But if the people you work for let you take the funds home and put them into your personal bank account, then you have a very unusual employer. I don't personally like Clinton. As I said, I'm a Democrat. I don't think he is. I just don't see why he should be held accountable for things that have been winked at and are still being winked at for everybody else. Do you remember when he put out the fire in the little girl's hair? It happened the first Christmas that he was in office. He did it quickly and in a very nice way. I just happened to be watching television when it happened. The Press never said a word about it, and it sure didn't make the papers. Why, probably because they had already signed the agreement that they would never say a good word about Clinton. I guess I do pan the Republicans, but they're in charge, and it's my right as an American. Do I prefer Sheila Jackson Lee to Helen Chenoweth? I sure do.Do I prefer that someone pays a little attention to the welfare of children after they have been born (as well as during gestation); I sure do. Do I think medical attention for everyone at a price they can afford is more important than a tax break for anybody? I sure do. Do I believe that people should be paid enough when they work all day to be able to feed, clothe, and house their families? I sure do. Do I think that the Republicans have been working on getting the Government off our backs? No, I don't. Big corporations can pollute at will, but if someone decides your money might have some illusive connection with drugs, they can just take it from you without a word. The cops didn't do that in third world countries where I have lived. Our establishment press doesn't seem to protect us from that sort of thing at all. They never take sides in any issue that really means lasting harm to us. What's really funny is that now that they've joyously spent eight years digging into every possible facet of Clinton, publishing Tabloid garbage and frothing at the mouth over such horrific unknowns as "adultery" in the White House, they are beginning to say, "Oh, we shouldn't be doing this, let bygones be bygones." That because there is an actual photograph out there of Gov Bush standing on a bar, mooning the crowd. "We shouldn't discuss things that happened before." This because everybody knows that the guy who has become their "fair haired boy" was mostly known for being a hard drinking drug addict. He says he has been faithful to his wife. Why should I believe him? Not that I care. It's a business that only counts between him and his wife. I really don't have a need to know, but for eight years the press has been telling me I do. Jack Kemp wrote a book telling me I have a need to know and should be "outraged" that such a thing could happen. So if it has been so important for eight years--why shouldn't it continue to be important? I'm sure the more ethical and less biased press will want to give coverage equally to Democrats and Republicans. And I'm sure the ethical and less biased public will want to be as outraged over Republican behavior as that of Democrats.

-Caveat Lector- Prudy, Clinton would probably be a lot of fun in social situations. He is well-spoken and I am sure has very nice manners. One just has to keep in mind at all times that most sociopaths do. Being totally devoid of emotions except those self-serving can allow them to adapt to every circumstance ala Ted Bundy. My only point in getting into this pointless discussion is that the media is generally accepted as very liberally biased. They have allowed this administration to commit horrendous crimes with impunity. Secondly, finding Clinton greatly lacking does not mean that a person is a Republican and believes the days of Reagan/Bush were wonderful as you keep bringing up. It is just that they were less awful than the current administration. We have a leadership crisis in this country and have had for many years. It has not been well led with possibly a couple of exceptions--only possible exceptions--since the depression. Certainly FDR in retrospect must look different than he did at the time. Spin and spin again until the people are so dizzy we do not know what is happening. Over and over, the govt is the puppet of the money entities--all are used by greater powers that span terms in office and national boundaries. It is not so simplistic as Democrats are good/Republicans are Bad. Amelia - Original Message - From: Prudence L.

It is not a question of whether it is hypocrisy, which it clearly is. But it is now a question of just because we let the other scum get away with it should we ALSO let Clinton get away with it too? As you know I am no fan of Reagan, or Bush or any other politician, but Clinton should in NO WAY be defended, because the underlying issue should be when are we as a people going to finally say enough is enough? Clinton is scum and is unworthy of the office, no one who came before has anything to do with how we treat him. Judge him on his own (de)merits. IMO, the whole sex issue is a non-issue and should never have been delved into in such ridiculous ways (as I've already stated before, if he was screwing his dog on his off duty hours that's his business and none of mine), the fact that it may have interfered with his doing his job is important, but it is a lesser issue than the other crap he has done or allowed to happen while in office. The fact that Bush got away with something, and Reagan got away with something, or that the press is biased, or the "right wingers" are in control have nothing to do with the issue of President Clinton and judging his actions while in office and making a determination as to his fitness. Just because Bush did it and got away with it unscathed is no reason to LET IT CONTINUE with Clinton. Hey maybe Bush killed someone sometime (he might have had a hand in the Kennedy assassination after all), and he got away with it. I guess that means that if Clinton did the same thing we should just let him go, because it would be hypocrisy to go after him when no one raised a stink over Bush's actions? I guess it would just be stupid to all of the sudden decide: "Hey! We got laws how about we hold the President accountable to them?" I guess we should NEVER finally wake up and say enough is enough huh? We should just judge everyone based on how they judged Reagan. Reagan was old and had Alzheimer's so just cover up and forget all the crap he allowed to happen under his watch. Same for Clinton, and everyone else who comes to office in the future. No more hypocrisy for me. They're ALL innocent and should just be left alone. Or are we just using this standard for Democrats who are elected President?

Granted, a bit graphic on the one known to have occurred in the Oval Office involving a very young intern. It would appear that may have been the least of his wrong-doings. Was information from the 1000 FBI files given to Larry Flynnt to blackmail all members of congress as suggested? Just what were they doing with those files? I think Clinton got off extremely lightly on that and apparently everything else he has done. At least Nixon has the decency to resign. Amelia - Original Message - From: Prudence L.

Re: [CTRL] Press is more ethical and less biased than ever? (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- My point was not Woodward, but the press in general--media at large, so to speak. TO this day, the name Nixon=crook, cover-up, scandal, etc. The man was driven out of office for his sins while Clinton is on TV shaking his finger in our faces while lying and nothing happens to him. I, too, liked Nixon for getting us out of VietNam if nothing else. My point is that the Democrats use the media every bit as well if not better than the Republicans. Unless something drastic has happened that I have failed to notice, the last polls I saw stated that the media (TV reporters/major newspaper and magazine writers) were something like 80% liberal in their actual voting. I cannot bring the survey to mind but if needed could find it. With this sort of "friends" doing the bulk of reporting, I find an almost consistent liberal/Democratic party bias to the news. Newt Gingrich was thoroughly vilified in the press in every conceivable manner. I think there was a choice made--charge Clinton on the sex thing or the China thing and the sex thing was chosen as the far lesser of the two. A conspiracy within a conspiracy but Starr has his own China connections to worry about becoming too public. I my lifetime I he never seen a more morally bankrupt administration--not even close. Yet, the have remain the media darlings and get very little negative coverage. Some of the things such as Clinton's Russia Tour would have been made much of before his election if it had not been for this blanket of protection afforded him personally and most Democrats/liberals in general. That's what I think and that's what I know. :) Amelia - Original Message - From: Prudence L.

Re: [CTRL] Press is more ethical and less biased than ever? (fwd)
-Caveat Lector- Prudy, Are you saying Clinton did not lie at that particular time or has not lied at all? I remember his saying that if a score card had been kept, he would have gotten a pretty good score because he had told the truth to the American people more than he had lied to them. His own words. That may be just peachy with you but for some of us, it is not good enough. Some of us are against lying all the time. My son works for the govt in DC (sad sign) and his girlfriend was not to be in his apartment unattended. They cannot get married until her security clearance is final. I do not discuss his work (I do not ask and he does not tell) because he is given a polygraph test routinely. If he had married the girl before security clearance was through he could have gone to jail! So why is the Leader of the Free World entitled to more privacy than this peon-level kid of mine? You get in about 20 free pot shots at the Republicans before anybody says anything, Prudy. How many do you feel you are entitled to have? Amelia PS When you have to get that technical over lie/truth, you have lost the meaning of the question anyway. Depends on how you define "is." Guess he would have carried on with not having sex with Monica if Hillary followed by the entire press corps had entered the room, huh? - Original Message - From: Prudence L.

-Caveat Lector- "We The People" are so ignorant it hurts. -- Forwarded message -- Date: Fri, 02 Jul 1999 22:59:37 -0400 From: Jay A [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Press is more ethical and less biased ? Paulson says that in fact, the press is more ethical and less biased than ever. 07/02/99- Updated 03:53 PM ET Poll: Less support for freedom of the press By Tony Mauro, USA TODAY ARLINGTON, Va. - On the eve of the Fourth of July weekend, a new nationwide opinion poll shows a sharp erosion of public support for press freedom and an unchanged level of enthusiasm for outlawing desecration of the American flag. The poll, released Friday by the Freedom Forum, a pro-First Amendment foundation, indicates that 53% of respondents think the press has too much freedom in this country, up from 38% in 1997. Seventy-four percent of respondents think people should not be allowed to burn the American flag, but only 51% think the Constitution should be amended to prohibit it, up 2 percentage points from 1997. The telephone poll of 1,001 adults in February and March has a sampling error of +/- 3 percentage points. According to the survey, nearly two-thirds of the public thinks the press should not be allowed to probe the private lives of public officials. And shrinking numbers of respondents think the news media should be allowed to endorse political candidates, report government secrets or use hidden cameras. "Freedom of the press has been synonymous in the public's mind for the last two years with Monica and Bill and Princess Di and Marv Albert," says Ken Paulson of the Freedom Forum's First Amendment Center. "It's time for the best qualities of American journalism to come to the fore." Paulson says that in fact, the press is more ethical and less biased than ever. "There's a great disconnect here." Media lawyer Bruce Sanford, author of Don't Shoot the Messenger, a new book on public attitudes toward the media, says, "The public is so angry at the media these days that we are beginning to blind ourselves to the biggest threat, which is not the media but government regulation." The news media have brought much of the criticism on themselves, conservative columnist Armstrong Williams says. "The face of American journalism has changed from that of a stony-faced, dispassionate anchor to two sides screaming at each other." He said the press has lost its image as a champion of the people. The poll found a few bright spots for the media, however. The percentage of those who think that Internet speech enjoys the same protection as the printed press went up from 56% two years ago to 64%. Support for broadcast coverage of courts including the Supreme Court also rose, compared with 1997. On religious freedom, also guaranteed by the First Amendment, nearly two-thirds of respondents said public school teachers should be allowed to lead prayers in school. Many people polled showed little knowledge about First Amendment freedoms. Forty-nine percent could not name any of the rights guaranteed by the First Amendment. Once reminded that it protects freedom of the press, speech, religion, assembly and petition, two-thirds of respondents said the First Amendment does not go too far. "A poll like this shows the worst of the problems of the First Amendment," said Carole Shields of the liberal organization People for the American Way. "But when people really consider these issues, we come out OK." = Kaddish, Kaddish, Kaddish, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Mike Spitzer* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. = DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
