"The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power. ”

Now, THIS is a great campaign ad!
Yes, it's two minutes long, but it's worth it! Hat tip to PD.
I agree, but may we delve deeper? There is a double helping of hypocrisy here. Obviously a “Family Values” (whatever they are and it does vary with culture) senator going to someone who practices “negotiable hospitality” for a living is a hypocrite. Does strike me as somewhat hypocritical that this ad was probably sponsored by those who said President Clinton's peccadilloes should be a private matter between him and his spouse, which I greed with. Seems no one wants to practice what they preach.

You dodge the point. Having a fling with an intern is NOT illegal, paying for whores IS illegal, which is the point of the ad.
Nice try.
And btw, Adultery was a crime in DC prior to the repeal of the law in 2004.
