See, remember the Clinton impeachment and how he had sex? Well, we used the same tactics they did and they started crying like babies. I did some
research...
"Livingston makes Clinton look like Mary Poppins" - Larry Flint
As the vote came closer, Larry Flint of Hustler Magazine got ready to reveal dirt on Livingston. Turns out that Livingston has had several affairs
while he was in Congress. How many? According to Flint, "Livingston makes Clinton look like Mary Poppins!" The Republicans have this problem because
their sexual morality stance is a two edge sword. And in order to move the impeachment forward, Livingston had to fall on the sword and give his
career to avoid the perception of hypocrisy.
So, the Republicans have lost two Speakers of the House as a result of the Lewinsky scandal. Hard to see where their winning this battle, but I'm
sure they believe they are. Meanwhile, Clinton's approval rating has jumped up again and the day after the impeachment vote, Clinton has 72% of the
public on his side as the Republicans have to somehow get 67 Senators to defy 72% of the voters, good luck!
But it's the Principle!
The morally superior Republicans claim they stand on principle. "We're doing what's right!", they say patting themselves on the back as they look
down their noses at us lowly sinners. Republicans fail to see that there is some principle in doing the work of the people rather than wasting a lot
of time trying to get a symbolic defeat. Republican principles are a mystery to us lowly sinners. Maybe they could explain it to me, but I doubt I'd
understand.
Because of Republican principles, Bob Livingston had to resign for the House. Hard to make a stand against sexual sins if your leader has had sex with
a dozen women. So Livingston had to go. Makes you wonder why the Republicans didn't know about his sexual past. Did Livingston lie about it? Or were
they too stupid to ask Livingston if there were any skeletons in his closet? Livingston claims he didn't lie, so what does that tell you? I hope that
the next time they elect a Speaker of the House that they ask him if he's had any affairs.
