- Iran-Contra was no Watergate or Lewinsky. Turns out the "scandal" was that a few of the president's men ignored Democrat appeasers in the Senate to prevent another Cuba in Central America. The TV showdown with Ollie North made the Democrats look like modern Joe McCarthys, waving around a secret list of known anti-communists.
Odd how trading arms for hostages with a member of the axis of evil is less important than a blowjob or a 20 year land deal over which no Clinton administration official was convicted of anything.
It truly is okay if you're a Republican. Anything goes.
