    IMHO, its not about rape. No one said it was.

    He taught her how to scramble eggs.

    The most shocking revelation.

    What happened to the tried and true "titillating".

    Too long to fit a headline.

    'Hot' or 'steamy' would seem to do the SEO trick.
     
  6. I'm not a woman and I certainly wasn't even thought of when Kennedy was in office (moms was 9 when he was assassinated), but this is CREEPY, regardless if it's John Kennedy or John Jones. Many older, powerful men wield their power over young impressionable women on a regular basis, and it's wrong every time, highly revered president or not, if, of course, this is true.

    At the same time, the direction of this country would be phenomenally different, and not in a good way, if this gotcha game of sexual infidelity had been considered a disqualifier for office since 1787.

    "Harding's Love Child" would make a reasonable name for a garage band. As would "Sally Hemming's Boyfriend."

    That would be a great double bill.

    I don't care about the sexual life of anyone. That being said, if the story is true, I don't think that is how a leader is supposed act.

    It is well documented that he was a skin hound but banging a 19 year old intern after giving her a few drinks is the act of a scumball. I am not so much hung up on her age as the fact that she was a subordinate.

    I have never been a big Camelot guy so it is not like this besmirches his rep for me, just shows that he was a douche.

    Bob - you need to get out more. "Scambled eggs" is not what you think.
