Clinton didn't do a bad job, however, his foreign policy was weak (understandable though, presidents in the US are rarely elected because of their foreign policy stance, recent times excluded), and he really should have kept his pants zipped.

Econimically, all he did was not screw with what was already in place, he (or Gore) didn't invent the internet, and had very little/nothing to do with the dot com boom/bust, that was a natural cycle that he was lucky enough to be in office during & claimed credit for. We were headed for a correction & who happened to be the president @ the time was just plain luck...

There's also a conservative/liberal cycle, and with the "graying of the US" (the bubble of the population getting older & remaining politically active), we're going to be conservative for a while longer. As the bubble of older US citizens dies off, is unable to vote, there will be another revolution of the younger folks taking control of the government & having more influence over new laws, policies, taxes, etc. It'll be interesting to be part of the next big change.

You forgot one thing. A signifigant portion of the retirement crowd scares very easily if you tell them the opposing party is going to muck with SS or Medicare. The Dems have been very effective in this area.

So a 'graying" wont be as conservative as you think.

I listen to NPR a lot... Am even begining to appreciate Travis Smiley...

After moving back to britain, i have to say i miss NPR - good to listen to as you start the morning. Better than BBC radio 4's Today programme, definately.

Anyway, back to the republicrat/democon Jihad

Most of you don't have any idea what a liberal is. Those that think Clinton was a liberal just prove my point. Every liberal that I know had to hold their nose to vote for Clinton. A liberal doesn't come fron a "right to work" state, that alone is enough to disqualify him.

Why was he even being questioned, under oath, about his sex life?

He wasn't even supposed to be on trial in the first place.

sean2002, Of course nobody asked you if Clinton brought shame on the country, but since you obviously had to express yourself and reveal you are struggling for comprehension, I feel obliged to give you a clue. You are asking the wrong question. Your question should be, "How is it that 'the anal majority, i.e. people whose vision is distorted by the eye bulge caused by two thousand pounds of pressure in their asses, see things in such a distorted way?". Properly phrased, the answer is in the question.

1. got up before 250,000,000 Americans and told an outright lie.

oh, right, a lie about what? and what was behind this? ah yes, rabid conservatives who tried everything else but found something they could get to stick. pathetic indeed. mud slinging conservatives did nothing but try scandel after scandel trying to tear his presidency down.

2. Got up before a Grand Jury and told an outright lie.

u must be kidding, they asked a question they had no business asking thanks to certain puritanical morons, namely conservatives.

3. If he would have acted after the terrorists bombed the USS cole, the 2 embassys, andf when Jordan offered up UBL (after he admitted to the USS cole bombings) maybe 9/11 would have enver occured.

perhaps if the conservatives stopped their little mission to tear him down at all costs we would have concentrated on things other then monica. but instead of working in the best interests of the american public, the conservatives saw spending millions on diverting the presidents and countries attention away from more important things in their plan to paralyze the presidency. the republicans had control of congress, what did they do? nothing.

you blame clinton for the terrorism? you forgot its been happening even before reagan, who himself wussed out of many a situation letting terrorists win. what did good ol george bush do after entering the white house that soooo badly needed to fight against terrorism? ah yes, take numerous vacations.

maybe if that pathetic bush had spent more time on fighting terrorism actually at the white house instead of romping around on a ranch we wouldn't haVE 9/11.


suck it!

If you ask me he brought nothing but shame to the office of the president of the United States.

And because he wasn't supposed to be on trial in the first place, he was completely justified in lying to you, me, and the rest of the American public, right?

About something that was none of our business to begin with? Yes.

People do it all the time. If it's none of your business, just asking about it doesn't make it your business and doesn't require the person to be truthful. Any other person would've done the same thing in his situation and I find it hard to believe that you've never done it before either.

Maybe the Democrats should put Bushy boy on the stand and ask him stupid nosey questions under oath and then spend millions of dollars in tax payer money trying to impeach his arse.

Maybe they should. And if they did ask him stupid nosey questions, would it be ok if he appeared on national TV and lied his arse off?

"I did not have sex with that woman!"

Yes, because it's none of our business to begin with. Although, drug use during presidency is a lot different than getting a BJ. One impairs your ability to do your job while the other does not.

The Democrats trying to catch Reagan and passing the Independent Council Law is what got all this started. The investigations the Democrats did on Reagan lasted almost 15 years and the GAO estimated the cost at 60 to 90 million.

sean2002 for the love of god and all that's holy, it's liberal. Notice the conspicuous LACK of an "i" after the "r" and before the "a"
