>>>He isn't responsible for any economic miracle here. He came into office on the right side of the economic cycle. His foreign policy has weakened the US -- no disgraced the US.<<< >>>That's hard to proof one way or another. <<< Just ask anyone at my air base and they will tell you the man is a bum. He comes out while we are deployed to the Desert for 6 months at a time 3 times every 2 years, away from our families etc saying how he knows what we are going through defending the US yadda yadda then flies back to the US and gets a hummer in his office. He promised we would be out of Bosnia years ago, I have been there twice since then and will probably be making more trips in the future until he leaves the white house. Iraq doesn't take him serious. We have geared up to end this Iraq situation so many times, loading up our bombers, going to the sandbox as we call it now, and then we sit around making side bets on if Slick Willie will pull the trigger, and he never does. It is always just another long trip away from home for no real purpose. The idiot is a joke and it is time we get some real leadership. Do politicians do sneaky things? You bet !!! That is why no one ever gave Bush any credit. He was the ex head of the CIA. Does anyone think that all those foreign problems we used to have just vanished by magic. We don't want to know why they went away, but the average mentally challenged American should at least realize that he made sure the problems went away. Reagan, Bush, and the Congress had more to do with the good times we are enjoying than Clinton. There is a lag effect in the economy that people don't realize. It takes years to build and start a machine like the US economy and just about the time it starts firing on all cylinders, we get a Democrat in there to stick a wrench in it and it takes a few years for the wrench to be found. The only credit I will give Clinton is that he has learned to stay out of the way of Congress and let them run the nation while he gets his gratification behind closed doors. <edit> >>>What a stupid comment. He is in the military. he is the Commander in chief of all the armed forces. WHY IS HE NOT BEING COURT MARTIALED ? <<< He is a civilian head of the military just as Cohen is the Secretary of Defense, they can not be court martialled because they are civilian. Only us peons get court martialled and thrown injail to serve sentences for adultery unless we are female and run to the press like that bimbo Kelly Flinn. I worked B-52s for 14 years and if I was stationed where she was, well never mind. She discraced 50 years of pride that we built up in the Strategic Air Command in 5 minutes of whining. And she wanted to be an aircraft commander. Yeah right.

We have funny standards here -- we think a person ought to tell the truth even when it doesn't help ones own skin. He lied publicly and only confessed when faced with overwhelming evidence to the contrary. I don't want to be a shareholder of a Company who's CEO is given to lying and I don't want a public leader who is prone to the same. You've bought this media bull that Clinton is somehow a victim. It is the American people that are the victims in this. What other lies has he told us? Wake up. Have the intestinal fortitude to call what is wrong - wrong, what is right - right. He desired the job -- He leads others who have committed themselves to certain standards of conduct -- How now should he lead them? If he remains, he is lame for the rest of his presidency. He has forfeited his right to public respect.
