How many million dollars wasted harassing the Clintons about various
real estate and options transactions, without finding *one single
thing* to even charge them with? (And never mind the chances of
*convicting*; they didn't even find enough to file charges.)

All over less money that Haliburton pocketed from *one* bridge repair
job in Iraq, where they were awarded the contract on a 50 million
dollar bid -- in preference to a 5 million dollar bid from the local
company who had repaired that exact bridge the last time we blew it
up.

I think dubya knows he's in trouble in the polls. If he were not having
poll trouble, he would not have made the trip. If this were his second term,
he would not have made the trip.



Really? It was just on NPR that if the election were held today, not only
would GW take Florida "cleanly", but he'd win the election nationally.

This poll data puts him against any Democrat currently running.

I'm talking about the polls favoring the war in Iraq.

People will wise up eventually. They might have pliable minds, but the fact
remains that this war is proving to be unjustified.

The man blew it there but over a personal problem. The republicans had
some issues in their own ranks. The guy leading the charge bowed out
suddenly when it was discovered he fooled around and he was so proud and
righteous before that was pointed out.

This sounds bogus to me, can you back that up? Sounds like smear.
Cheap smear at that.


Cheated on Hillery (admitted on TV)



A personal problem that the Republicans helped create and certainly doesn't
come into play in performing his duties. Do you also berate co-workers that
have had extra-marital affairs? I'll bet you don't since you seemm to have
some decency.

Vague references to pardons? To be fair you should know that presidential
pardons have a history of being ripe smelling to even the most hardened nose.

More great usenet humor, remember that the Chinese really liked Nixon.
Do you remember why? Nixon liked how they dealt with their affairs.
Nixon and the chinese were birds of a feather.
BTW, Nixon resigned right.

To take someone's personal problems and turn that into "he's a
bad president he is human" is a weak argument.

Anyway it's all moot, Clinton's no longer president.

More than any other president has done. He seems to actually value
integrity.

Stole furniture from White House when he left and had to return it
(WSJ and other sources)


Widely debunked.

Cheated on Hillery (admitted on TV)


Big deal. I take for granted that anybody at that level has "cheated"
on their spouse; power is the ultimate aphrodisiac. The cases we
actually *hear* about are a tiny portion of the cases that occur, and
are randomly selected.

Besides, we have no idea what his actual deal with his wife was; so
far as I'm concerned she's the only one with standing to complain of
his behavior.

Comments.


There are a few.

I notice you've had nothing to say about the fraud Halliburton and
Dick Cheney have been profiting from, and the long string of lies out
of the White House to get us into this war, and the deliberate
"outing" of an undercover CIA operative to punish her husband for
writing a report critical of the administration's position (the
"yellowcake" scandal). Or his brother's illegally purging black
voters from the rolls in Florida to get Bush elected in the first
place. Frankly the crimes of this administration take us back to
19th-century levels, or perhaps to third-world hellhole levels.

There is a good science fiction novel, Russian Spring by Norman Sprinrad,
that is starting to appear prophetic. Essentially, the U.S. has become a
conservative bastion ruled and populated by buffons, where the best and the
brightest leave for other countries. Europe and Russia have joined together
and are creating an energetic space program along with an open, tolerant
society.

Our current President Doofus, and his supporters, are helping make this
fictional story more plausible every day.

Why would the best and brightest leave a conservative, capitalist society where
their talents and efforts would bring them success to have the fruits of their
labors plundered by a socialist regime?

Those who would leave would be the failures who THINK they are the best and
brightest, taking their degrees in Fench literature and art history with them.

Oh dear, how will we get along without them?
