Of course he should have specified WHICH woman....Probably Hilliary.
THAT I would believe.

So if the question had been more specific, you'd have believed him?

Not likely.

So he wqas pre-judged before he even spoke...

The Pubs HATED him so much that they would do anything at all to
discredit him.

The list was so long to choose from.

Yep. He was just following in his predecessors' footsteps...

The "read my lips" utterenace was not, in my opinion, a lie, but a bad
decision.

And what Bill did with Monica was not, in his opinion, "having sex".

This is an interesting point here. There are a lot of young people in
this country that enjoy each others company in that manner, and they do
not consider it sex. In fact they consider themselves virgins as long as
they don't do it in the traditional manner.

And *in their opinions*, they're right!

And the kids these days think THEY have it bad! hehehe

*Every* generation thinks they invented it...

Never say never in politics. He got boxed into a political corner
and up the taxes went.

Papa Bush made apublic promise that he *knew* he could not keep. But he
*knew*
it would help get him elected. That qualifies as a lie to most people.

There's also lying by omission. Remember Willie Horton, and how Dukakis was
blamed for letting him out of jail? Well, the rest of the story is that
Dukakis, as governor, was *required by law* to let Willie out of jail,
because
a program *created by Dukakis' Republican predecessor* REQUIRED it. By
law. No
choice or discretion. That early release program was then dismantled by
Dukakis' administration as soon as its shortcomings were apparent.

Standard Pub tactic. Every election they have a hot button topic, be it
School Prayer, Pledge of allegiance, Flag burning, etc. It is one of
those things that help to divert peoples attention away from issues that
should be debated during the campaign. All the above are perfectly fine
issues - discuss them after the election please!

Fun facts:

- Before the whole Supreme Court case about school prayer, most public schools
in the USA *did not* have school prayers.

- The Pledge of allegiance as originally written *did not* include the words
"under God". They were added because the Knights of Columbus wanted them...

- The *correct* way to dispose of a US Flag is to burn it.

Papa Bush's campaign made a lot of noise about Willie Horton but not about
the rest of the story.

Duh

Shall we talk about faked and misleading pictures of Jane Fonda and other
people?


Richard Nixon DID get us out of Viet Nam

Sure - by simply giving up and walking away. The country rapidly fell to
the
North Vietnamese. What, exactly, was accomplished by all those years, lost
lives, and billions of dollars?

I think that the videos of the people leaving Saigon were one of the low
points of US history.

And that happened under whose administration?

He told us in 1968 that he had a "secret plan" to end the war. Four years
later, that plan hadn't been put into action, but he got reelected anyway.
Then
there was the secret bombing of Cambodia..

Well, there you go!

and opened the China wall, among other political milestones.

That he did.

There were also wage and price controls, which delayed stagflation but
ultimately made it far worse.

What a socialist thing to do.

Most important was that it made the problem worse.

Had it not
been for a bad political mistake on his part, he would have been enshrined
as one of America's greatest presidents.

I don't see how. Not compared to the likes of FDR or Eisenhower, to name
just two.

But there was one important difference, Jim.

Which was?

Clinton, in my not-so-humble opinon, was (is) one of the singularly most
immoral and incompetent presidents we've ever had.

hehe. Your pulling your punches here Jim!

Who, me? I didn't write that. Clinton was not a great president, but he was
light-years ahead of Nixon.

Because he cheated on his wife? Heck, look at what ol' Newt did to *his*
first wife.

But there was a difference, Jim. He's Republican. He was framed or
there was an invasion of privacy or something!

Do you know what he did to his first wife?

His "credit" was that he
could surround himself with people more able than he who could do the spin
control. Any adult male that can't enjoy some recreational intimacy and
keep it quiet is a fool!

So it was OK that he fooled around but not OK that he got caught? I
disagree!

Not to mention, it was not he who blabbed.

Didn't I mention it?

Don't forget that the whole thing opened up when a "nice" republican
lady that Monica thought was a friend went to the people that so badly
wanted to discredit him. So she didn't keep the indiscretion discreet.

Kinda dumb on Monica's part, don't ya think?

Two interesting things here.

This person is *surprised* that no one wants to hire her?

Actually, given the way things often go in Washington, it *is* a bit
surprising.

And the last paragraph quote is one of those that make you shake your
head in disbelief

* Tripp accuses the White House, the Pentagon and two Pentagon
* officials of violating the Privacy Act by releasing personal
* information about her during the Lewinsky investigation.

AT LEAST *SHE* DIDN'T RELEASE ANY PRIVATE INFORMATION ABOUT ANYONE!!!!

BWAHAHAHAHA!

Oh... that's correct..... the other people were those evil democrats!
;^)

In the Pentagon?
