Okie doke. It's a very nice site. Makes some arguments (re: excessive size of government) that I think you will agree with.

Clinton is such a pathetic bore: resolved, the US was just a platform for him to show his imagined "greatness", he was just so much more important than the nation. In his undying quest for validation, Clinton proves he's the mental case his detractors always knew him to be. December 21, 2001 POLITICS Clinton and Aides Lay Plans to Repair a Battered Image By RICHARD L. BERKE WASHINGTON, Dec. 20 — Even after Bill Clinton was elected president, his campaigning never seemed to stop. In the White House, he was always keenly attentive to polls and political calculations and presided over what became known as a "permanent campaign." Now, Mr. Clinton is trying to extend the permanent campaign even beyond his presidency. Frustrated that his image has been battered since he left office, Mr. Clinton summoned several of his aides and advisers on Wednesday to devise ways to remind the public of his accomplishments and defend his legacy against criticism on matters including his role in the current recession and his failure to strike a fatal blow against Osama bin Laden or his terrorist network after the embassy bombings in East Africa in 1998. Several participants at the meeting in Mr. Clinton's Harlem office said in interviews that they had agreed to compile a list of the Clinton administration's achievements that his supporters could have handy when defending the president. They hope to build a staff that will coordinate efforts to enlist former cabinet secretaries and other Clinton surrogates to appear on television talk shows and deliver speeches. And they are making plans to raise Mr. Clinton's profile on the lecture circuit, particularly before college audiences, which are most receptive.... nytimes.com It was famously said by the superlative George Will that "Clinton was not the worst president in history, but certainly the worst man ever to become president". Increasingly, as the NYTimes article reveals, it looks like Will was too kind to Clinton, the pathetic creature.
