<Are you trying to tell me...> It is an extremely conservative breed of the gold bugs. When the liberals will convert themselves into believers time to get out, very long time from now.

OT Liberals Right for Wrong Reason John L. Perry Feb. 23, 2001 The American left has arrived where it should have been years ago: Clintonism is indefensible. But not because it's "bad for business" (the liberal agenda). What Bill-and-Hillary stand for today is what the Clintons have stood for all along. Their one virtue may be their persistent consistency. They did not suddenly, just since Inaugural Day, Jan. 20, 2001, become indefensible.

What the nation is now receiving an earful of from nearly every notable Democrat able to speak above a whisper is a common chorus of denunciation and rejection of the Clintons. They are right of course. But alas there are two gaping holes in their recent righteousness. First, they have come so everlastingly late to the altar rail. In terms of practical politics for even years to come, their lateness may prove to be entirely too late. Take former President Jimmy Carter, probably the best foot, ethically speaking, that the Democratic Party has to put forward, a decent, honorable, honest man. Now he's speaking out against the corruptness of Clintonism. Now Carter is speaking out – for the first time! Confound it, Jimmy, in the name of all that's decent, honorable and honest, where have you been for the past eight years? Where were you when the country needed you to step up and speak out? Why did the cat have your tongue all this time? And the same goes for Ham Jordan, the horse you rode in on. To pick at random the familiar names of just a few of the (cont) newsmax.com
