Clinton should have done more. Maybe he would have done more if hadn't spent so much time defending himself against baseless allegations. Gore would definitely have done more. As for "lying democrats" I have heard all kinds of lies out of GOP leaders and their lobbyists about ANWARS lately. When Bush says we can leave "no footprint" it flies in the face of the detailed government report which proves how devastating ANWAR drilling would be to everything wild up there. By the way, if you cheated on your wife and asked you if you had in front of everyone, would you admit it? Clinton made mistakes but his hurt no one but himself. Bush-Cheney-Enron's lies hurt us all.

Typical Bush lie accepted by GOP-friendly media. From the current Sierra magazine... "When confronted by accusations that energy companies like Enron unduly influenced the Bush administrations energy policy, the White House PR machine tried to hide behind the nearest environmentalist: "The President thinks that access should be across the board, and that's why the Sierra Club....met repeatedly with the energy task force." -White House spokesperson Ari Fleischer, January 22, 2002 In fact, Sierra Club representatives never met with the energy task force while it was crafting it's industry-friendly plan. (We did meet twice with Bush administration officials from the group-AFTER THE PLAN WAS RELEASED.) Vice President Cheney and his staff met six times with Enron officials, including then-CEO Kenneth Lay, WHILE THE PLAN WAS BEING DRAFTED." (my emphasis) Funny that the "liberal" media didn't bother to check out the White House claim that they were trying to be open to environmentalists while drafting the plan. They are nothing more lately than an extension of the White House PR machine, probably as an overreaction to the charges that they have a liberal bias.

You can bet John Kerry will get on this if and when he's elected. I predict he will be in 2004. Kerry-Edwards. There is a fundamental problem with this scenario. Americans are not about to elect another lying Democrat. And Reps don't lie.....they just refuse to hand over documents. BTW I never heard your thoughts on how Cheney sold oil machinery to Saddam when he was CEO of HAL. Funny, it never came up in the campaign and it took the Financial Times of London to dig it up. Do you think Cheney and Saddam are old oil buds?
