Monica Lewinsky: "If you want to know what power looks like, watch a man safely, even smugly, do interviews for decades, without ever worrying whether he will be asked the question he doesn't want to answer."

Very insightful. But only half the story. The more important half is all the "journalist" know they can't ask that embarrassing question to one of the leaders on their team.

True, just like no one called out rick scott for blatantly lying about the "election fraud" in Florida.

It happens all the time - on both sides.

Hey, now you're the one with the reader's digest words of the day, huh?

Even with that at your side, you're wrong.

You see, it's actually exactly the same.

You stated:
"The more important half is all the "journalist" know they can't ask that embarrassing question to one of the leaders on their team. "

Then I said:
"True, just like no one called out rick scott for blatantly lying about the "election fraud" in Florida."

You see, the morality in question is not the perpetrator or their act, it's the "journalists".

Gee mark, nice try. But you came up short.

LOL - well mark, I explained it perfectly. It's exactly the same from the point of view of the media - which is the point that you made.

Now, the infractions of scott and clinton are far different.

But then, you didn't make that distinction, now did you?

But naw.. you can just ignore that... right?
