To be fair. She was an actual adult, not a kid and she only "regretted" and made it a problem after Linda Tripp convinced her it was a problem.

Maybe you don't have the full story but while it was inappropriate, it should never have been made public like that and it wasn't illegal for them to have a relationship

While I don't disagree, comments like yours pointing out the nuance of it only serve to give them ammunition to pull this shit instead of running on policy and accomplishments, instead of fighting fair and winning elections on merit, they attack and tear down the dems when they win.

I'd also suggest that you and others look up the number of republicans caught having affairs with underage staffers, not just their subordinate but actual teenagers.

This is not new behavior from the repubs. They went after Clinton the same way and could only get him for purgery (iirc) because he lied about something that honestly should have stayed between Bill and Hillary.

It's insane how much time and money they waste on trying to get the democrats instead of actually legislating and helping the idiots that voted them in. These morons keep voting for them though.

Right but that coating can come off with an abrasive cloth. The oleophobic coating doesn't last forever and between our hands, pockets, etc, it eventually wears down. Polishing the screen with an abrasive fabric (even if it doesn't feel abrasive to you) only hastens that wear.

Holy shit is the ignorance palpable here.

I'll bet you blew into your game cartridges as well and still have no idea that was the cause of the issues with games.

I'm done here. You have no idea when to shut up and stop mumbling over your own foot.

This shows that you don't actually understand how these hardened glasses actually work. They can most definitely still be scratched even if it's micro abrasions. Plus the oleophobic coating doesn't protect against scratched, it helps prevent fingerprints and that coating along with any others will get worn down even faster.

It may not look scratched to your eye but unless you are only using pure cotton fabric and not cleaning the screen while wearing any of the moisture wicking work out shirts that are full of plastic, it's most definitely scratched by now. Especially if you have been using the same phone for 5 years.

You've always "needed" a soft cloth to clean glass of any kind. This is not a downgrade, it's doing the best you can to preserve things.

I wonder how many people in these threads also use vinegar to clean their led/lcd tvs and monitors? If you are, stop it. It's also not a downgrade to not use acid.

As I said in another comment. Most clothing now has plastic in it, that is way more abrasive than pure cotton.

I think I got ny first blackberry around the same time. Still have my 9700 around here somewhere and last time I checked it still worked. Maybe I notice it more but the shirts I wear don't clean my glasses or my phone very well, all they do is move the oils around and it isn't as clear as it can be.

I've stopped worrying about screen protectors with the latest editions of gorilla glass.

So you always wear a perfectly clean 100% cotton shirt? More clothing than you realize has plastic in it these days and can be very abrasive.

I've been doing the same for nearly as long. Maybe you don't wear glasses with any of the extra coatings on it, I do and can tell you that it will scratch them. I've never had a shirt get any glass as clean as a microfiber cloth or towel.

Shirt doesn't get it as clean and clear as a microfiber cloth. I have a few very large microfibers that I keep around the house and at least one in the car.

Also, shirt can and will scratch the screen, maybe not noticeable at first but over time it will do damage.

What if that's what universe wants you to think?

Like I said, it's not that big of a deal and I can live without it.
