Regarding Clinton's Sex Life, Part II

[LanternWaste]

Look, I've said this over and over again and it's still true-- I've neither chosen a candidate yet, nor ruled one out-- so it's not like I'm passionately married to any one of them yet.

But can I ask two favors if you post about the affair Pres. Clinton had ten years ago...

1. Please make sure you'er not parroting the precise same things Rush Limbaugh said about it. We've been getting a lot of that recently, and using his talking points is really bad form-- especially on DU. It makes us look a bit... how do I say this? "Stupid" Yeah... that's the word I'm looking for.

2. Please don't throw your puritanical, Victorian-era sexual standards in my face (hey-- is that the first time you've ever heard a Christian utter *those* words...?) and then follow it up with "but it's not about the sex..."


Thanks.

1. Yeah, the right wing talking points get annoying.

"Triangulation" is a big one. Its a word that was basically started by the right in the past few years. Previously, it refered to a subordinate worker bypassing his manager on issues, that's what it meant. No dictionary I can find contains the political meaning, and the Wikipedia entry has avery short history:

But everybody is throwing it around here like it has meaning.
