What she said. Better a woman than the nation. (although I am disappointed, but he's not my husband.) Go, shrift.

I probably don't personally care who a candidate is mutually adult consentually sleeping with... but I DO wonder about the priorites of someone who can't keep it in his pants when he knows its going to hurt his candidacy, the party, etc.

You'd really rather get laid than elected? Next please.

Yeah, seriously, it's the no sense having that bothers me.

I never got over or trusted Clinton after he lied to my face while campaigning in his first presidential election about gays in the military. I mean I know all politicians lie to get what they want but but he seemed so sincere!

children with both prenatal and postnatal cellphone exposure were 80 per cent more likely to have abnormal or borderline scores on tests evaluating emotional problems, conduct problems, hyperactivity, or problems with peers.

Maybe it's just 'cause their parents are on the phone all the time, instead of, I don't know, parenting.

Congrats, shrift!

Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards on Friday admitted to an extramarital affair while his wife was battling cancer. He denied fathering the woman's daughter.

If I'd had any regrets about him washing out of the primaries, that news would have made them evaporate.

The researchers made exactly that point in their paper, megan. They just a correlation; they can't say what it's caused by.

So, RF from cell phones is dangerous, right? Not so fast. As the authors write, "We have no known biologic mechanisms to explain these associations, and confounding by unmeasured causes of behavioral problems could have produced these results."

I just find the American puritanical attitude toward extramarital sex ridiculous. I realize that I am in the minority and to most Americans (or at least the media) it is vitally important. YAWN

I don't consider something a lie when the subject was absolutely none of my business in the first place.

It's not the extramarital sex or even the fact that it happened while Elizabeth was having a recurrence of the cancer-- for all we know, she knew of the affair and maybe even condoned it. (I've certainly heard of that happening before-- and it winds up being something that saves marriages ultimately.)

It's the sheer foolishness of the timing that I can't get over. It's like "Dude, use your head! The one between your shoulders!"

Eh, corproate execs defrauding the pensions of people I don't know and will never meet isn't any of my business either, strictly speaking. Doesn't prevent me from regarding them as scum when the news breaks.

I'm with Barb--it's the stupidity that burns. When the Lewinsky thing blew up on Bill Clinton, I was more pissed that he couldn't keep it zipped for eight years than I was he had the affair (fling/blow job/whatever) at all. Show a little intelligence, man!
