“A president whose character manifests itself in patterns of reckless personal conduct, deceit, abuse of power, and contempt for the rule of law cannot be a good president.” —Bill Bennett, The Death of Outrage (1998)

“We do not — at least, we should not — subscribe to the notion that laws apply only to presidents (or causes) we disagree with, but can be suspended for those with whom we agree.” —Bill Bennett

“In scandals such as this, it is always members of the president’s party who have particular leverage, and therefore who have a particular responsibility, to hold the president accountable for his actions.” —Bill Bennett

Bill Bennett is a walking billboard on the futility of studying ethics. (Saying this with bile & regret, as a past student of ethics.)

On the contrary, Bennet's 'there's no there there' comment is as rooted in ethics as any I've heard him make over the past thirty years. I'm heartened.
