Lol

"I don't know Marc Rich and wouldn't know him if he walked in the door there," Clinton said. But, he added, "I was very sensitive to prosecutorial abuse because I had seen it. ... I don't think that's all bad for a president to be sensitive to any kind of abuse of power."

"...That scrutiny, Clinton said, made him "just angry that after I worked so hard and after all that money had been spent proving that I never did anything wrong for money, that I'd get mugged one more time on the way out the door."

On a lighter note, Clinton said he is getting a chocolate Labrador puppy, a relative of his late dog, Buddy.

Buddy, a frisky retriever often seen at Clinton's side as he jogged, was killed in January by a car outside the former president's home in Chappaqua, N.Y


Poor new baby Lab! Buddy was the second poorly supervised Clinton dog to be killed by an auto. Too bad there is an unlimited supply of replacement Labs (or replacement interns) or places to foist off cats that have outlived their usefulness. Bah!

< Asked if he would do it again, "probably not, just for the politics," he said in an interview with Newsweek magazine. "It was terrible politics. It wasn't worth the damage to my reputation. But that doesn't mean the attacks were true." >

This pretty much sums up the moral fibers of this man: He wouldn't do it again because it was terrible politics. There is nothing morally wrong with pardoning a felon for political favors.

What a bastage!

I suppose Clinton would sleep with his best friend's wife if it were politically expedient.
