I think Greg Palast makes a pretty compelling point here. Of course as an European I find it baffling that a blow-job can lead a president to the brink of impeachment or that a penchant for hookers can suddenly make Spitzer wrong about the sub-prime loan sharks and sharp practice in the financial industry. It is a strange facet of the US mentality that finds sexual peccadilloes to be more disgraceful than a millions of Iraqi dead and/or exiled as a result of an unjust war, which our leaders took us into on the basis of barefaced lies. I mean is it just me or do people have a weird sense of proportion in The Land of the Free?
