Looking For A "Lewinsky"

This is a "G"-rated version of a notion I've heard expressed already elsewhere (from this morning's Philadelphia Inquirer - no shot on a graphic for this, by the way):

As a veteran, I should be outraged that George W. Bush turned Nov. 11, a day of remembrance, into an excuse for political attack. But nothing this White House does shocks me any more. What was scandalous was the content of his speech: That Congress had access to the same intelligence the White House did, that the intelligence itself was not manipulated, that the administration's claims about WMD were supported by "intelligence services around the world," and so on. These and similar statements have been repeatedly proven false. Will some intern have an affair with this guy so we can impeach him already?

Who knows? Maybe it would help Dubya with some recurring issues (though Atrios, quite rightly I think, says that this stuff should be taken with "a boulder of salt.")

If it's true, though, that Dubya's main contacts these days are women, then maybe he's abiding by the sentiment of Maureen Dowd's book title after all (see below).
