The death of outrage : Bill Clinton and the assault on American ideals / William J. Bennett.

Sex -- Character -- Politics -- Ken Starr -- Law -- Judgment -- Conclusion -- Afterword -- Postscript -- Appendix : The Nixon and Clinton administration scandals, a comparison.

The author attacks President Clinton's defenses and analyzes the meaning of the Clinton scandals: why they matter, what the public reaction to them means, and the social and political damage he believes they have inflicted on America. The author dismisses the position that economic well-being is the only important measure of presidential performance; torpedoes American respect for European sophistication about private matters; and explains why he feels that Clinton's troubles are the result of his own doings.
