Reminds me, for some inexplicable reason, of a debate I heard on BBC R4 back in the '90s. Very serious Radio 4 bloke was chairing a discussion with some, equally distinguised, US guests on the upcoming Clinton impeachment hearings:Radio 4 Bloke: "So what is the US public's attitude toward Ms. Lewinsky?"
Distinguished US journalist: "Whilst there is some sympathy for her as a young woman overawed by such a powerful figure, I think most people feel she should have kept the details to herself."
Radio 4 Bloke: "So most Americans probably think that Monica Lewinsky would have done better if she had kept her mouth shut?"
A long silence followed, punctuated with serveral grunts and snorts from the assembled experts. I nearly crashed my car.
That's kinda hard to swallow.
