LETTERS: RIGHT WIN NEEDS TO MOVE PAST BASHING

To the editor:

A psychologist was evaluating a client using Rorschach inkblots. Psychologist (displaying inkblot to client)?: "What does this remind you of?" Client (concentrating): "It reminds me of sex." The psychologist shows several more inkblots, and the client says they all remind him of sex. Psychologist (exasperated): "I've never had a case like you before. What is it about these inkblots that they make you think about nothing but sex?" Client: "It's not just the inkblots. Everything makes me think about sex."

Does this resemble the current right-wing obsession with former President Clinton? I do not know if Tony Snow actually expended two hours last week taking Bill Clinton to task for claiming to have landed from overseas at LaGuardia International Airport in New York, but it sure seemed like two hours. The very first person ever to offer the advice "Get a life!" must have been talking to someone like Snow.
