My wife got an advance copy of the book since she works in a bookstore. I skimmed parts of it. Here's the lesson I learned:
Cutler got a few hundred bucks per session while sleeping with Republicans.
Monica got a book of poetry from Clinton.
Women who want to get ahead by giving head should stick to Republicans. Those rich Republican guys pay better.

The lesson I learned was: You can get whatever you want for free by lying and cheating, and there are never any consequences."
Sounds to me like she's got a bright future as an elected official.

Republicans, more that all others, have learned that it's not what you believe that matters, but what you say through your teeth to the public. I imagine most GOP pols like to get tail whenever possible, but they know most of the voting public is into nanny moralism. So they fake the moral outrage card, because it gets them into office.
This may reflect more poorly on most voters than the actually politicians themselves. Does anyone know how Mike DeWine voted in the Clinton impeachment?

From the Cincinnati Enquirer
Mr. DeWine, 52, voted to convict Mr. Clinton on both articles. He was also a leader among Republicans pushing for a full trial, with witnesses and no shortcuts.

Well, to be fair, I don't think it was DeWine himself. It was his staff (I mean, members... of his staff.. I mean, people that worked for him).

Below is the quote of the day from the site of my excellent libertarian friend, Eolake Stobblehouse, across the pond.
I have tried many times to get the powers that be here to tout Eolake, seeing as how he's a librarian not to mention he has many images of young women nekkid as jaybirds.
(Domai.com)
"She was tallish with dark hair which fell in waves around a pale and serious face. Standing still, alone, she seemed almost sombre, like a statue to some important but unpopular virtue in a formal garden. She seemed to be looking at something other than what she looked as if she was looking at.
But when she smiled, as she did now, it was as if she suddenly arrived from somewhere. Warmth and life flooded into her face, and impossibly graceful movement into her body. The effect was very disconcerting, and it disconcerted Arthur like hell."
- Douglas Adams, So Long And Thanks For All The Fish
(An overlooked part of the Hitchhiker series, and in my opinion one of the all time best love stories. Recommended. - Eolake)

They'd better pay more, to make up for their lack of status.
When Kissinger said power is an aphrodisiac, he didn't have midlevel GOP bureaucrats in mind.

I'm sorry, I guess I'm old fashioned, but doesn't it make a sex scandal a lot more interesting if the woman involved is actually halfway good-looking? I googled some images of this chick and at her best she looks like Chrissy Hynde with a hangover.

I heard her on a local DC morning radio show. My first thought was "who ghost wrote that book" because she came across as a total dipshit who couldn't string together a sentance without peppering it with lots of "you knows" and giggling like an idiot.

Douglas, I think she's kinda hot-looking, in a Eurasian (?) kind of way.
Too bad she's a skanky ho. I say that not because she's obviously fond of sex, or fond of sex with lots of guys, but because she seems to have a lot of sex with guys she doesn't like, for cold and shallow and manipulative reasons.

What's most disappointing about the book is that she doesn't name names. I skimmed it, and I didn't find the story all that interesting. My wife read it, and she didn't find it all that interesting. The "what" of the story was never all that interesting. It was always the "who" of the story. And she didn't deliver the goods on that.

Jessica was a low level staffer doing low level things for mid level management. It is just sad for her family having to live down her low level stardom.

I just coined a new term:
Warhole -- n. Someone who gets 15 minutes of fame for acting like a jerk or idiot.
