First, his supposed home was the White House, not the Oval Office, which is not in the residence portion, and which is where the blue dress incident occurred. That's kind of like saying my garage is not part of my house. Second, though less concrete, is that it isn't "his" home. It is on loan to him while he occupies the office. Living there is an honor, not a license. I expect his behavior to be better. 'Course, I expect a LOT of behavior to be better in D.C., and am frequently disappointed by members of all parties. It's his home so long as he takes up residence there. Furthermore it's not an "honor" as you claim. Clinton was duly elected to the position, and therefore is was his right to occupy the residence, regardless of those who would seek to deny the will of the people by subverting our political system for partisan purposes. |

The Presidency is not an honor??????????? Holy crap! Where are you from, dude? I'm not sure where you're from, but in all places I've lived and breathed, being elected to any position was an honor, and any trappings that come with the position are honors, and the person receiving them is expected to behave honorably. Getting elected to some position does not ever give someone the right to dishonor the office, or its location, or its history, or its responsibilities. I've never heard of any reasonable place where election to an office gives you carte blanc permission to do as you please, wherever you please. And this has nothing to do with party--I'd feel the same about the person regardless of party. This is especially true as I get more libertarian, since neither major party does what I hope for. At any rate, being elected to the Presidency is supposed to be the highest trust and honor that Americans can bestow upon someone. If you don't see it that way, please don't ever run for office in the USA. If you do run, please enclose your paragraphs above in your campaign literature. Your potential constituents would need to know how you felt. Had Clinton been removed from office, that would have been the will of the people as expressed through their legislative branch. "Ill advised" might have been a better choice of words than "subverted". However, as time goes by and Clinton rewrites history more and more, I'm beginning to believe that removal might have been a better outcome. |

Despite your Clintonesque hairsplitting, it doesn't make much difference. His actions were wrong, and he knew it, which is why he tried to hide it, then denied it, and only fessed up when he had no recourse. He was ashamed and embarrassed by his actions, as well he should be. So what's your point? Are you saying that since he cheated on his wife he should have paid the full settlement on a frivolous lawsuit, been found guilty of a crime he never committed, and removed from office for infidelity? I find what you call hairsplitting rather funny. Second, though less concrete, is that it isn't "his" home. It is on loan to him while he occupies the office. Living there is an honor, not a license. I expect his behavior to be better. 'Course, I expect a LOT of behavior to be better in D.C., and am frequently disappointed by members of all parties.

The Presidency is not an honor??????????? Holy crap! Where are you from, dude? The subject was the White House, not the presidency, "dude". And if you're so concerned about "honor" explain how Clinton was honored when he was the subject of a politically funded and motivated frivolous lawsuit and a special counsel investigation that lasted almost his entire term, cost $100 million, and produced exactly squat other than to detract from the office. Apparently you feel "honor" only applies when your ideology supports it. snipnonsense Had Clinton been removed from office, that would have been the will of the people as expressed through their legislative branch. "Ill advised" might have been a better choice of words than "subverted". However, as time goes by and Clinton rewrites history more and more, I'm beginning to believe that removal might have been a better outcome. Ah yes, the will of the people, eh? Why then did Clinton have a 70% approval rating WHILE the impeachment proceedings were going on. Keep in mind this was a higher approval rating than Reagan ever achieved throughout his 8 years in office. The impeachment proceedings had nothing to do with the "will of the people". It was simply a partisan tactic to remove or discredit Clinton when all their other efforts had failed. It was and will forever remain a blight on the American political process. As far as "Clinton rewrites history", all I can say is you are really out there with your looneytarian ideas. You should try getting better information sometime as wherever you're getting yours has warped your sense of reality. |
