"I AM NOT GOING TO APOLOGIZE .. BUT I SURE REGRET BEING CAUGHT"

More of the same from Bill Clinton. He is making it clear that he is not going to go any further in his statements on the Lewinsky perjury matter. He says that he believes he has adequately expressed "my profound regret to all who were hurt."

Hey, Clinton. Regret is one thing. An apology is another.

Of course you regret it. Any criminal who is caught regrets it. Any person who gets caught lying to his family and friends regrets it. But, what is "it?" "It" is BEING CAUGHT!

You got caught. You got caught in your lies, and God knows how much more. Now you say you regret it. I have no doubt that you do.

What you won't say is that you are sorry. Not sorry that you got caught, but sorry that you lied and sorry that you used your friends and supporters to cover for you.

FOLKS -- BELIEVE ME. YOU AIN'T SEEN NUTHIN' YET.

I've said it before .. and I believe it now more than ever. What you have heard so far about the conduct of Bill Clinton is small stuff compared to some of the items that will come out with Kenneth Starr's report.

Clinton has been looking absolutely morose lately. That, I believe, is because he knows what's in that report. He knows what Ken Starr has on him, and he's scared to death. This would explain his attacks on Ken Starr. It was nothing but a last-ditch desperate effort to discredit and de-fang Starr before that report makes its way to the press and to Congress.

Soon even Clinton's staunchest supporters are going to be whispering among themselves that Clinton needs to step down .. just go away. Many Congressional Democrats are already saying just that among themselves.

QUOTING THOMAS JEFFERSON? THAT PIG? HOW DARE YOU?

I spent an hour yesterday afternoon on MSNBC as one of the talking heads discussing the latest in the Clinton scandals.

They ran several interviews with fools-in-the-street who parroted the hand-fed Clinton line about investigations into "the President's private life."

When I finally got a chance to get a word in edge-wise, I mentioned that Thomas Jefferson once said that a man who seeks to be a public servant gives up his private life.

I immediately heard the voice of some female, and I don't know who it was (it could have been the host, Soledad O'Brien), yelling "Thomas Jefferson? You're quoting Thomas Jefferson?" She went on to lambaste Jefferson as a slave owner and someone who had affairs.

Wow! What is going on here? I get slammed for quoting Thomas Jefferson? Is that where our country has gone?

I told the voice that I certainly did quote Thomas Jefferson .. and was proud to do so. He was one of the founders of this country and the man who wrote The Declaration of Independence. I was cut off before I could say that Thomas Jefferson also put his very life on the line by affixing his signature to the Declaration. He put his life on the line for freedom, and that's something our current Commander in Chief has shown that he would not do.

Bill Clinton wouldn't have been fit to clean Thomas Jefferson's chamber pot. Problem is, Clinton probably thinks that a chamber pot is something you smoke before you go to bed.

SCOTT RITTER TO TESTIFY BEFORE THE U.S. SENATE

Here is a story that deserves one helluva lot more coverage than it's getting.

Scott Ritter, an expert on the art of concealing weapons of mass destruction, and one of the most important people on the United Nations Unscom team that is charged with the responsibility of making sure that Saddam Hussein doesn't have such weapons, has resigned.

Ritter makes it clear in a commentary in today's Wall Street Journal that the Clinton Administration actively worked to interfere with the work of the Unscom search team. They were poised to conduct a search of sites in Iraq that Ritter is certain contained evidence of Hussein's acquisition of ballistic missiles. They also had evidence of the concealment of biological and chemical weapons. The inspections were called off at the insistence of the Clinton administration. Ritter resigned in disgust.

Do we truly realize what's going on here? All the evidence says that Hussein is stockpiling hideous weapons, and is developing the ability to deliver them by ballistic missile. Meanwhile, we have a President with no moral authority to do a damn thing about it ... a President who is too weak to react.

Just what do you think the consequences are going to be here?

THE CRASH OF SWISSAIR 111

Sorry.

Nealz Nuze is sparse today, I know. Frankly, I was up all night watching the coverage of the crash of Swissair Flight 111.

I have friends who left Atlanta for Zurich last evening on Swissair. Thankfully, they're safe. I also have a number of good friends who work for that airline, here, in Chicago and in Switzerland.

May I just say this? I have made at least three round-trips between Atlanta and Zurich on Swissair. I consider Swissair to be one of the finest airlines in the world .. and it is always my choice for international travel.

We are now in the planning stages for my wife's trip next month to Bombay and Istanbul. You can bet it will be on Swissair.

The crash is truly tragic. My condolences to those with friends and family on Flight 111, and to my friends at Swissair.

COME ON --- NO NETWORK REPORTER WOULD SAY THIS ..... I HOPE

I am told that a reporter for NBC said that a plane like the Swissair MD11 that crashed last night " ...will not float unless the water is very shallow."

I truly hope that a person who rises to the level of network reporter wouldn't be dense enough to make a statement like that. Buoyancy has nothing to do with water depth.
