Again, I respect your different point of view regarding both these public figures...that's different from the post I responded to! If you look closely enough at any public figure, indeed at any human being, you will find your share of warts....my position doesn't constitute a "blind eye", it is simply a product of being around awhile. Whether it be George Bush, Hillary Clinton or the pope...I was listening to some Cincinnati talk radio program yesterday coming home from work, a well-known conservative talking head was taking Hillary to task for being hypocritical, a liar and stupid. George Bush's intelligence is questioned by what appears to be the entire liberal community, and the pope has stuck his holy foot in his mouth rather frequently. These partisan "views" of folks who maintain a different philosophy dot the landscape of Americana...but a 15 year old girl has nothing to do with the state of America's political environment....and the rather curious expansion of a "mock Jesse" thread to include only black so-called "examples" while excluding equally (or greater) repulsive acts by white folks speaks for itself.
