No, you're not tiggy - and while aboslutely, take a shot at it, you might want to read the question again, because in your quickness to answer, you ignored the question.

What I was asking her was a very specific question: why that particular reaction?

Because the reaction was not to Charlie Sheen - who, by the way, is a total fruitcake, in my own opnion. It was to the idea that anyone could think it was possible.

Personally, I think impreachment is merely a first step for war crimes, profiteering, lying to the American public, bettrayal of the public troops, wiretapping phones, using the Constitution as toilet paper, and a lot of other things. As it happens, I don't think Bush orchestrated anything at all because he's too stupid to have done anything that complex.

But that's not what I was questioning, was it? Not if you reread and pay attention to the actual question.

Outrage - I'm using her word for it - is a lot stronger than merely the eyeroll of an "oh, puhLEEZE!" reaction to silliness. It implies deep feeling the other way.

I gave my laundry list - only a small one - as to why I think no one in that collection of people regards ethics as anything other than something to be ignored at will. I asked for a single example as a counterbalance to that.

I still - snarking about blue skies aside - have not seen one offered.
