Neuter Clinton Now

To the Editor:

In response to Jill Dellamalva's article, "Forget P.C., it's time to be Morally Correct" (Apr. 3), I have a few brief remarks:

"Jill, care to have sex with me?"

No threat, no force, just a simple, if rather aggressive question. How does that make you feel? Personally, I feel vile having to say that to prove my point and I hope that you're disgusted, too.

I don't understand why a man with such a publicly scrutinized life (someone whom we are supposed to look up to for our Moral Correctness) can get away with this. Shouldn't that disgust us all? I honestly don't see why some women support the freak of nature in the White House - he's insulting their intelligence.

Another thing, how is adultery Morally Correct, exactly? (And on the part of our President, our country's representative to the world?) You said that "But when you do [cheat on your wife], it's a persona mater. When a personal matter gets in the way of doing a job, a job suffers." Exactly, I cannot agree more. So with Clinton running around and having sex with a least Gennifer Flowers for sure (and most likely many other women), how is this good for the state of our country?

Last point. I can neither support nor deconstruct Judge Wright's decision as I didn't get all the facts in the case. I am an American and I am confident in our legal system (outside of California), so don't start the "it's all a conservative conspiracy" stuff - you're a college student pursuing higher education and I am ashamed that you took that cop-out as an argument for your point.

Finally, I'd like to echo Jill Dellamalva's statement, "My point is that I'm sick of hearing about it." So am I, Jill. That is why I recommend neutering our frisky President Clinton and stopping all of this madness now, before all those little kids who look up to him are morally corrupted.
