which is why I think it was improper of the Republicans to ever make it public. They were just trying anything to take him down. Sure, bad on Clinton for having an affair, but people do it all the time. Many presidents before him have. I think that's all personal relationship stuff that the country didn't need to or even want to know. That doesn't impact how he does his job.
