But you claim to have other knowledge. Knowledge beyond that of the FBI. So please enlighten us.

What factual evidence do you have? Maybe Kenith Star went easy on Clinton. Is that what you think?

I thought I was clear in saying that only Juanita and Bill only know for sure. Not sure how that is a "claim to have other knowledge."

I'll leave you with this though - One of these two lied under oath about sexual activity and one didn't. Who do you want me to believe?

Chinaco,

Conservatives believe two basic things are important for keeping America strong: morality and responsibility. Therefore, conservatives often support government policies that promote moral behavior - like abstinence education - and that encourage responsible behavior - like lowering taxes on people who work hard and are financially successful.

Conservatives believe Americans should help each other, but that society should not look to the government to solve all of its problems. Conservatives see the government as big and wasteful, and government programs too often reward immoral or irresponsible behavior. Conservatives believe that the government should keep a tight budget, and government programs - if they exist at all - should help people get strong and independent so that they do not need further government assistance.

To be blunt, conservative thinkers often believe that there is a right and wrong answer in most situations, while more liberal thinkers see a lot of grey in most situations.

Reminds me of the following sentence in Paul Fussell's book Class: A Guide Through the American Status System (1983), p.65: "Jewelry is another instant class-lower, like the enamaled little Old Glory lapel pins worn by the insane and by cynical politicians working backward districts."

Only in "the greatest nation on earth" would reluctance to wear a silly pin become a campaign issue.
