In re the Lewinski affair, George Carlin spoke to the manner in which standards have been lowered.
"JFK had Marilyn Monroe. Bill Clinton stuck his dick in a government clerk."
If I may summon the requisite audacity to paraphrase the master:
In terms of presidential blackmail, we've gone from Ellen Rometsch to Jeff Gannon.
Now if you'll excuse me, I must go poke out my mind's eye.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
