Editor’s note: See “Unfit for Power: It’s time for Donald Trump to step aside and make room for another candidate​,” where Marvin Olasky and the editors at WORLD write, “The standards we applied to Bill Clinton in 1998 are relevant to Donald Trump in 2016.”

Last week, as Bill Clinton was testifying and talking to the nation, his pastor at Foundry United Methodist Church in Washington was equating the president with King David, because both leaders were involved in sexual immorality.

The Y2K bug and our reactions to it: That is now threatening to be the most remarkable providence of 1999 and 2000, and it's easy to see why. God's sense of irony often leads him to bring down leaders and civilizations by what we most idolize, whether it is power, sex, or computers. That we often worship our gods of technology is plenty of reason for the Lord of heaven and earth to put them, and us, in our place.

As the Clinton scandal watch warmed up again in late summer, reporters seeking scoops once more flocked to the Web site of Matt Drudge, the intrepid Internetter who back in January forced polite publications to make Monica Lewinsky a household name. Newsweek reported on July 27 that "everyone in Washington" looks to Mr. Drudge for information-yet at the same time, journalists are publicly attacking his Web site and new Fox News show for contributing to a decline of media standards.

Summertime, and the living is easy-but not when we complicate things. What could be cozier than a little girl during the summer cooking dinner alongside her mother? But when a mother is worn out from working, it's easier to spend money than invest time. And thus, an upscale catalogue company sees an opening for a $109.95 set of toy pans: "It's never too early for aspiring chefs to learn the value of superior quality cookware. Whether they're playing or actually helping you cook, children enjoy the feel and heft of these superb sets from Europe."

When journalists talk of coverups, the former president to whom they most often compare Bill Clinton these days is Richard Nixon. When the discussion turns to Mr. Clinton and adulterous sex, John F. Kennedy's name also emerges. But the comparison that is perhaps most apt, on grounds of both sex and scandal, is not being made: Bill Clinton and Warren G. Harding, who is often considered to be (with competition from U.S. Grant) the worst president in American history.

I'm sure I've left someone out, but there's the honor roll of newspapers and writers that-according to my search through the Lexis-Nexis computer files-responded forcefully two months ago when Sidney Blumenthal became, to my knowledge, the first White House official in history to attack evangelical Christians overtly.
