Pay no attention! The time for sneering of any kind has come!! 
Witless sneering, witful sneering, just plain undifferentiated 
sneering--all is welcome. Accompany it, please, with questions about 
why lying about war and peace is not impeachable if lying about 
blowjobs is. And ask if there is any reason--other than oil--to sneer 
at Clinton for trying to save people in Srebnitca while applauding 
Bush for whatever is going on in Iraq...
