Democracy...
>>>Almost 60 percent of those polled said they thought Clinton was fit
to be
>>>president. By what standard? That's the trouble. Americans have no
>>>standards -- no unchangeable yardsticks by which they measure right
and
>>>wrong, truth from fiction.
>
>>By *their* standard, by their own personal judgement. There's no moral
>>yardstick, and God help us if there is in the future. Who makes the
>>yardstick? Who sits down and says, "This is the moral standard in this

>There has to be absolutes otherwise any action can be excused (or
damned).
