To the Editor:
    To equate Bill Clinton's hot tub with George Bush's policy of torture is not merely absurd. It is emblematic of a journalistic stance that invents false parity on all issues. The moral standing of the United States has been blotted by seven years of lawless rule in which innocents have suffered spying, detention, torture, humiliation and death . That needs to be said and it is not made more credible by pairing it with snarky comments about Bill Clinton's lifestyle.
