You can thank the media, in general, and the White House press corp specifically for Kennedy's affairs never coming to the attention of the voters. They covered for him as well as his Secret Service agents. Marilyn? Hell, she was a minimal sideshow in Kennedy's affairs. He was running mistresses in and out of the White House two or three at a time when Jackie was gone. His nude swimming parties in the White House pool were legendary with those in the know around Washington. Read Seymour Hersch's book "The Dark Side of Camelot" for documentation of Kennedy's problems, and they were many. Keep in mind that Kennedy is Clinton's hero. Meeting Kennedy is what convinced Slick to get into politics.

you want others? Sunday July 30 2:46 PM ET Defying Republicans, Clinton to Continue Gun Buys By Barbara Hagenbaugh WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Clinton on Sunday vowed to continue a multimillion-dollar gun buyback program despite orders from House Republicans to halt it. More than 17,000 guns in 70 cities have been turned in at a cost of $3.5 million since the buyback program began in April, when the nation marked the first anniversary of the slayings at Columbine High School in Colorado. Another 30 cities are expected to start programs in coming months, the administration said. Clinton's decision came despite opposition to the $15 million Buyback America program from the chairman of a House appropriations subcommittee, Rep. James Walsh of New York, who claims existing law does not authorize such spending.(cont) dailynews.yahoo.com How about his attempts at spending of funds allocated by law for supporting of hunting resources to the stopping of hunting??? newsmax.com There have been others!

Failing To Execute Alexander Cockburn February 18, 1999 In the final stretch of the impeachment trial, when the White House was eager to remind liberals that, bottom line, Bill Clinton was their guy, came a couple of headline-grabbing environmental initiatives. First, on Feb. 3, Mike Dombeck, chief of the U.S. Forest Service, used the occasion of a speech at the University of Montana to announce that President Clinton was issuing an executive order banning all new mining claims along the Rocky Mountain Front. The Front is a 100-mile stretch of terrain from Helena, Mont., north and west to the Canadian border. To the casual eye, the executive order advertised by Dombeck looked like big news, heartening to greens. The terrain in question is one of the most important wildlife areas in the country, providing particularly important habitat to the grizzly. It has even been called the American Serengeti. Dombeck's order got a clamorous reception from environmental reporters and editorial writers who lost no time in declaring that this was evidence of a whole new, nature-friendly outlook at the Forest Service, previously regarded as being the servant of U.S. timber and mining companies. Then, on Feb. 11, on the very eve of the impeachment vote, Dombeck unleashed a second initiative. He said that Clinton was signing another executive order that would place a moratorium on the construction of any new logging roads in virgin stretches of the national forests. cont newsmax.com
