I must belong to the other third. I didn't think it was right for the press
to dig out every sex act that Clinton ever got a chance at, but now that they
have set the precedent, I want them to continue. I want to know everything
about everyone. Until the Republicans told me (over, and over, and over, and
again over) how important it was that I know that any candidate for the
presidency of the United States had experience with illegal drugs, had a
mistress (how much he paid his mistress), what the mistress thought of him,
had sex outside of marriage, and if and how he might have been in the armed
services, I didn't realize how important it was that I have full detail on
these matters. I want it all. I want to know if he sassed a teacher in
fourth grade. Let's see. Now looking for ethics in the press is a really
tough job, but we do have Ivins and Hightower. Prudy

CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
