Not according to the latest news reports



Saddam Hussein Freed On Technicality
BAGHDAD—The U.S. was forced to free accused war criminal Saddam Hussein Monday following the revelation that the former Iraqi dictator had been arrested in an illegal search. "American special forces neglected to obtain proper warrants before dragging Mr. Hussein from his hiding place outside of Adwar," Iraqi prime minister Iyad Allawi said in a morning press conference. "In accordance with international law, the Americans had no choice but to free him." Hussein, who is still named as the defendant in hundreds of outstanding civil cases, said his release was proof that the system works.

Tell this to your employer and see if they feel the same way.

Since my employer has hotter women under his personal purview than I do, I imagine he would be quite eager to draw distinctions between sexual harrassment and rape.

Oh, and the fact that he practices civil litigation, which he still understands to be fundamentally different from criminal law. I imagine this is a fine point for a transactional lawyer, but it's kinda our bread and butter.

Hey, easy does it club, W went to Harvard.

He did? Damn.

He so rarely mentions it. Except as a necessary component of the story concerning his early discharge from the Champagne division of the Texas National Guard, I'd be surprised if it were ever uttered at all.

Why Bill Used His Cigar Instead of His Erection With Monica-A psychological study of President William Jefferson Clinton.

Bill said that he had "hundreds of affairs" before "turning forty" but then he began a "concerted effort to be faithful," according to a conversation with Monica reported to the Starr grand jury. This suggests that he began to have a sexual potency problem at forty in 1986. A man who is periodically impotent and so fears erectile dysfunction when he attempts sexual intercourse has a reason to avoid it and to substitute masturbation and oral sex. The reason is fear of failure. The Starr Referral says, "...the President inserted a cigar into (Monica's) vagina and then put the cigar in his mouth and said, 'It tastes good.' " This is a statement about Bill's felt need for a better penis, more dependable, harder and maybe larger. Sometimes a cigar is more then just a cigar.

Excerpt from the Clark book about why they blew up the milk factory states, in part, due to visits with Iraq chemical weapons experts. As Ty would say, you need to read Clark's book.

Not exactly. But I wish you guys would make up your mind about whether Clinton had good reason to bomb that factory.

The way you keep interchanging the separate situations of Juanita and Monica is rather telling.

Did you formally work for Hillary's staff when they were working to contain further so-called "bimbo eruptions"?

Yes, I read her bio, and in comparison to the heavyweights of international affairs on this board she is indeed laughable.

Careful now, or someone's going to start quoting (e.g.) Ramsey Clark at you.

I think even the lefties should now agree that it's a good thing we stole the election, don't you think?

Harvey Mansfield on Ronald Reagan: "In everything he was optimistic and radiated optimism: 'America's best days are ahead of her.' He was averse to gloom, malaise (in contrast to President Carter), and sacrifice, yet he demanded greatness from his country. He gave the impression that from the industry and generosity of Americans and from the spontaneous freedom of human nature, greatness would come easy."

Tellingly, the important thing about Reagan was the image he presented.

Seriously, does anybody know what happened to Gore? I never really liked him, but as VP he struct me as at least sane and rational (other than his Earth day frolicks). Any explanations?

Agreed, but that wasn't my point. My point was that any prudent employer, given the current jurisprudence related to coercive work environments, would and SHOULD be concerned when a subordinate employee is having sex, consensual or otherwise, on work time, in the work place with a superior. Do you dispute that? Would you advise a client (other than one in the porn industry) that this is something that they should not be concerned with?

I would advise a client that if they're still thinking about it several years later, it has passed from being a concern to the sort of mental illness that deserves clinical attention.
