>>Cocaine is not a big deal and is quite benign. That's probably why recreational use has been effectively decriminalized. You problem is anachronistic thinking. At the time GWB is not even alleged to have used Clinton's drug of choice, @ 25 years ago, it was indeed not a big deal. Clinton's use and contemporary crimes (the ones you deftly detailed) are. >>and has still managed to get elected Governor of Arkansas Proving anything can happen in a third-world one-party state like Arkansas once was. You might say that Clinton's outsized corruption advanced the state in ways unintentional - even as his stewardship retarded the state in most others. The progress there has been palpable since his absence as democracy has advanced. >>and President of the United States multiple times. Twice, by the stupid minority of voters. No majority, no mandate. Just corruption. Expect the people to reward the party of Clinton in 2000 just as they did in Arkansas - a cleansing process salutary to the body politic.

Well, you've got it about half right. A few of those Clinton accusations are probably not true. Curiously, you left perjury and obstruction of justice off Clinton's resume, presumably because a federal court found him guilty. Funny how no jail time went with that finding, given all the people who are in jail for perjury. I suppose you're outraged over it, being someone with little tolerance for lawbreakers. Anyway, as I have stated many times in the past, I'm a boomer who did the boomer things in the 60s and 70s. Can't remember any one of us back then who was ever arrested or did jail time. The only people who do jail time are dealers and habitual users who commit other crimes to fund their buys. State police, even in Texas, do not raid college dorms parties or booze cruises. This is why students, professionals, and most of Hollywood manages to stay out of jail. Only a very, very, very naive person would think otherwise. So now, it's truth time for you. Ever broken a law?
