I don't want to go through the list, John, but I have to take exception to one point:

3) Signed the timber rider bill allowing for unlimited cutting of old growth forests on our National Forest lands.

That one was a pet peeve of mine, I've brought it up before. That was buried in the '95 budget recisions bill. "The Forest Health Preservation Act", who says Republicans have no sense of irony? I certainly agree that it should have been vetoed, the whole recisions bill should have been vetoed, but Clinton was still trying to actually work with Newt. Took him a few months more to figure out that was impossible without total, abject surrender, and finally show some backbone.
