re: #153 DesertDenizen
In the 90s they used that excuse for every rotten thing they did in their personal lives. It was always “youthful indiscretions”, even when committed by men in their 40s and 50s.
Henry Hyde, author of the Hyde Amendment, had a youthful indiscretion at 41. This came out when Hyde was trying to impeach Bill Clinton. The hypocrisy was astounding.
