1. probably a good portion or Rove's plan to use Monica L. to
permanently scar America's collective shock reaction to political no-no's has worked.

2. How many care?
I wonder this because so many I talked to did not seem to care about clinton and monica (though the press did). He cheated on his wife, lied under oath, but most people I know seemed to shrug it off as business as usual - the idea then is to explain why gannon matters to them (imho).

9. "wag the dog" re: WHAT?
WHAT do you imagine the dog is wagging the tail of - do tell...

There is a male PROSTITUTE, a FAKE JOURNALIST, asking questions of the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES on national television. He is there without a background check because he has been given a pass every day without one. He has posted pix of his PENIS all over the internet in search of clients for his prostitution business.

And you think the Democrats are wagging WHAT dog? Please explain.

8. Like, 90%
It's astounding. I don't know what to say. All of the old platitudes pale in the face of this. I can't say "if it were Clinton!" or "there's your liberal media..." because this is bigger and worse and more scandalous with more repercussions and yet - nobody knows.

Any Canadians want to marry me?

10. You really think 10% of Americans know about this?
I'd think its closer to 1% -- or definitely less.

11. oh maybe 90 or 95 percent?
I don't know of anyone who knows about it except DU frequenters.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
--John Mitchell, US Attorney General 1969-72
