Opposed it for Clinton too...However, Goss should stay so that we can have more fun with the GOP crooks.

If the sex was a bribe, than I support his decision!!!

All GOP politicos need to burn in hell.

1. political bribery
Using prostitutes for political bribery is a far cry from 2 consenting adults.

11. And head of the CIA, no less!
This could be a security breech. Who knows what kind of "pillow talk" transpired between Goss and his "wife du jour." He could have given away all kinds of state secrets.

Yes, yes, that was amusing, Portie...now, tell me again about those nasty covert American intelligence operations in that awful mid-East and please speak directly into the champaign cork...

4. Well there/s sex and then there's Sex.

Odd how we will completely destroy someone for having a mistress but seeing hookers and having wild orgies with booze and drugs and hookers doesn't seem to count. Something not quite right with that logic.

I guess it's the ole "boys will be boys" argument.

12. I don't think so
Edited on Fri May-05-06 01:47 PM by FreakinDJ
The difference in attention span has little or Nothing to do with "Boys will be Boys" mentality. Ken Star was already actively pursueing any thing and every thing he could find on Clinton when the whole Monica story arose.

Try comparing the number of Judicial/Congressional Inquiries during Clinton's 8 years and the 5 years Bush has been in the White House. The disparity is alarming

They've been riding around in all those limos.
