Dennis Prager recommends the Robert DuVall film THE APOSTLE and Prager hopes that DuVall wins an Oscar for Best Picture. DP says the movie shows the complexity of people that the media normally portrays as cardboard characters. Then Prager asked about what constitutes adultery. Legally, it is intercourse. Prager holds that there are gradations of adultery…and the President's supposed statement that oral sex does not constitute adultery is not only worth snickering over. Prager says we should find the positive in as many situations as possible. So with all the miserable things coming out of the White House scandals, Prager welcomes public discussion over what the media should cover…and what is adultery. Prager has long advocated that people save intercourse for marriage, but should feel free to play around otherwise (unless they are very religious). DP holds that intercourse is unique. He wants to preserve "the cosmic significance of intercourse." Prager claims that most women would be more upset with a spouse having weekly lunches opening up emotionally to another woman than a one night stand with a hooker. A caller said he asked his wife Prager's question, and that she said the sex would be more upsetting.

Prager interviewed commentator Charles Krauthammer, a secular Jew, who said that the only reason we should militarily intervene in Iraq would be to get rid of Saddam. Krauthammer said Hussein was no mad man, but acted rationally in his desire to dominate the Arab world.
DP says he reads everything Krauthammer writes… There are only two prominent disagreements between them: Krauthammers' strong opposition to pornography, and that he, Charles, thought the IBM Big Blue chess victory over a human was significant.
DP points out that Hussein has forsaken $100 billion in oil revenues to avoid UN weapons inspections. Saddam is more interested in power than $100 billion. Saddam is more interested in destruction than the construction of his own country.
Saddam Hussein cares less about Iraqis than you do, says DP.
Prager reitered his support for strategic space-based missile defense aka Star Wars… DP says that history will judge the Clinton administration as an eight year waste of history, if it lasts eight years. DP respects many libertarian ideas, but he thinks the party and thought construct is immoral when it refuses to go overseas to fight evil.
P: Bill Clinton is of the '60s generation "Make love, not war." Going to war makes him uncomfortable. He prefers to charm people, not blast them to smithereens. Bill has gotten through life by charming people and running for office. He does not know how to deal with evil. If Saddam is not evil, no one is evil.
