Clinton was always a self-serving tool.

But Light said Clinton would have been on firmer ground by only revoking the executive order into the future, and he suggested it was a mistake to lift the five-year ban for Clinton appointees, as well. "That has an edge of cynicism to it," Light said. "Administrations have to live by the rules they set."

And when did they ever live by "the rules"?

Even Wertheimer, a hard-liner on ethics matters, said an argument can be made that the five-year limit is too restrictive. But he said Clinton's latest move "is an act of hypocrisy and cynicism."

I hope Bush plans to reverse most Clinton EO's.
