no controlling moral authority
http://atlmalcontent.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 04/ 27/ the-clinton-standard/
Christopher Hitchens dissects the moral relativism of the Clintons (via The Plank): “They all do it” means, in this circle, “We all do it.” But the apologist won’t concede this consciously or honestly. Faced with the task of explaining the Clinton pardons, including one to Marc Rich, Sidney Blumenthal, a former senior Clinton adviser, immediately responds, in The Clinton Wars, that Richard Nixon pardoned Jimmy Hoffa; and as for the $190,000 in gifts accumulated by the Clintons, it was “roughly the same amount as the preceding Bushes had accepted.” Since he elsewhere accuses the Republican Party of being essentially lawless and segregationist, he might admit that he’s setting himself a low standard.
