Harry,

Bush looks very weak in that he is unable to get the Congress to do what he wants, and the Congress is doing the same cr@p that they spent the last 6 years doing (trying to destroy Clinton.)

We have been through this about a dozen times already, and each time the Congress came up with nothing.

The Reps have their chance to "unite", and they are screwing up big time. They suck, bad.

So now it is the republicans fault slick Willy gave out those pardons. You are going to have a hard time pinning that one on us.

The pardon was a very bad idea, but the president's pardon power is pretty much absolute. I don't think it is worth the political cost to try to impeach Clinton after he is out of office. Even if the action was taken from serious concern about the illegal contributions and other irregularities it would seem vindictive. It would hurt Republicans, energize Democrats and the only practical positive effect would be to save an insignificant amount of money on Clinton's pension. It just doesn't make sense at this point.
