Happy Holidays! Well, I'm not sure I totally agree with you. In a way, it's possible that the characters might seem wooden to you, at least at certain times. They are FBI agents, they're supposed to be calm, cool, and collected, not maudlin, oversentimental fools. There are times when the emotions flow but it's rarer, as hardened federal secret agents might be. There are times when things get wacky and funny, to, I know the writers occassionally write a funny or perhaps just a facetious episode.

Heffron" Subject: Re: Gulf and the Prez Okay, I have to jump in, here. The events taking place in Congress regarding the impeachment process have literally made me ill. The fact that someone like Henry Hyde can sit on his moral high horse in judgement of Bill Clinton is the height of hypocrisy, in my opinion. "Voting his conscience," my butt. This whole thing has been a partisan witch hunt from the get-go. I am not saying that Bill Clinton did nothing wrong. I'm pissed at him as well for making some very bad choices and for "letting the little head thing for the big one," if you know what I mean (not to be too crude). What a bonehead. Did he lie? Yes, probably. But, let's think about the circumstances under which he lied. As Angie (I think) has stated previously, he lied about having an extra-marital affair. Was it wrong? Yes. Did he perjure himself? Yes. But, I also believe that 99.9% of the general population would probably do the same thing, under those circumstances, especially if one were holding a very public political office, and if one knew that one's responses would be videotaped and the shown on national television (aside--and since when has it become standard operating procedure to broadcast grand jury testimony?!). That is not to say that it is right or legal, or should be brushed aside as a triviality. I don't think Bill Clinton should be able to just sweep his lies under the rug and forget about them. He should be held accountable for his poor judgement and actions. But, c'mon folks, is it necessary to remove Bill Clinton from office for this offense? Is this situation really on par with the Iran-Contra Affair? I know there are those of you who will say that a lie is a lie is a lie, but I must strongly disagree with you on that one. I have found that nothing in life is black and white, and that is what makes things so fun! I have found it particularly troubling that there seems to be a double standard in play regarding the legal treatment of Bill Clinton. On one hand, he is just a regular US citizen and is not above the law and should be allowed to be sued, or have to participate in other legal proceedings against him. Okay, fine. But then, why do the folks who take the above position find the answers that he gave to the Grand Jury so objectionable? Any defense lawyer worth her salt would advise her "regular" clients to do exactly as Bill Clinton did. He would have been crazy to answer each question exactly as it was put to him. Of course, he was splitting hairs and trying to get to the exact, minute meaning of each word. That's the way our legal system works, warts and all. I don't blame Bill Clinton for working the system. If he's just a regular citizen in the eyes of the law, then why should he not be able to utilize all of the protections afforded by the system for its citizens? I know this has been said before, but I want to say it again: I do not look to the President (or any other public office holder, for that matter) to be my moral leader. I expect him to perform the public duties of his office competently. What he does in his private life is his own business. I do not want to know what he does in his private life, quite frankly. His actions may disappoint you, but I firmly believe that it is possible for someone to do a good job in his or her public life, regardless of events happening in his or her private life. And don't even get me started on the questionable legality of the 105th Congress starting porceedings that can only be finished by the 106th Congress...Why do you think they were pushing the vote through so quickly? Have you ever seen Congress take action so quickly (and during the holiday season, to boot) in all your life? Whew! I think I'm finished for the time being.

We were walking along the Strip on Saturday night when I noticed that one of the flashier hotels was named the Flamingo Hilton. Most of you have already guessed what sprang into my mind. So there I was, with my own little private joke that got funnier every time we meandered past the Homicidal Flamingo Hilton, and then we actually went *inside* it... Anyway.

This lead me to my big question which has plagued me for quite some time. Does NO ONE observe the twelve days of Christmas anymore? Does NO ONE know that they come AFTER Christmas and lead up to Epiphany? Does NO ONE celebrate Christmas *all through* Christmastide? Yeesh. I feel like such an old soul. See, in my family, we're SUPER Liturgically Correct (hello, priest for a dad), and we observe all twelve days. We take our tree down on Epiphany (6 Jan, for those that don't know - it's when we [Catholics, Episcopalians especially, and some other folk...] observe the arrival of the Wise Men). We sing Christmas carols ALL THROUGHOUT these last days of December and first days of January. I'm beginning to think I'm the weirdest kid on the block. In my house, We Three Kings is not sung as a Christmas Carol (because it's not - it was written as an Epiphany Carol to celebrate the Wise Men's Journey/Arrival). But I hear it EVERYWHERE. It hurts. It really does. So what I'm wondering is: Do I have a kindred spirit out there? Anyone else into the Twelve Days of Christmas as they've been observed for centuries?

My dear, we in the Episcopal Church believe that the Lord gave us the power of reason and we should be thankful and use it to it's fullest. We thought about it a long time ago and decided that priests can marry. Why the hell shouldn't they? More recently, we thought about women. They, too, are in the priesthood (and can marry). It is true that Roman Catholics do not allow either, and true also that most people think of Roman Catholics when they hear the word "priest." However, I assure you that we've been using the term for hundreds of years and it is *usually* the only term to describe our clergy ordained into the priesthood (we do NOT have "pastors" thankyouverymuch). He's read that "Book" thoroughly, honey. He's read 'em all.

I think the inappropriate questions are an issue. Iin criminal trials, when a search and seizure is deemed illegal, what happens to the evidence gathered? It is suppressed, even if it happens to be a smoking gun. There is no excuse for violating someone's rights. Period. Now, that being said, let's take a look at the specious reasons for Clinton's testimony. It was apparently an effort to establish a pattern of extramarital affairs to aid in Paula Jones' suit. Do I have that right? Well, I'm not sure what the legal definition of "pattern" is, but I don't think "one" affair fits the criteria, and that's all they testified about. Hmmmm. Furthermore, what in heaven's name does an affair conducted with consent by two adults, extramarital or not, have to do with harassment? Harassment has power, domination, and control as its underlying issues. I'm sorry, but Clinton's testimony regarding Monica Lewinsky had nothing whatsoever to do with Paula Jones. My point is that I cannot help looking at the testimony as an inexcusable violation of Clinton's right of privacy and so can't get outraged by his lie, told to shield his privacy from invasive questions. Sometimes official government inquiries are in the wrong, and I feel this is one of those times. >My point is, as sick as I am of the whole mess, I think Clinton is as >responsible for its being dragged out as anyone else.
