Michelle, I saw Hillary and Bill this a.m. stepping off Air Force One. They were holding hands and smiling. This woman forgives like nobody I know. I am 37 years old and have seen many relationships come and go but I have never seen adultery forgiven like that. It leaves permanent scars in most relationships. You are correct in stating that the American People are very forgiving. The problem here is that Bill Clinton has yet to admit any wrong doing, yet he does ask for forgiveness. Usually when people ask for mercy, they admit their crimes first. I still think that he could have prevented this situation if he had chosen the path of an honest man rather than a scoundrel. When he went before the court in the Paula Jones Sexual Harrasment Case, he should have admitted wrongdoing, appologized, and accepted his punishment. Instead, he chose a path of deception, lies, and sleeze. Now we have the mess at hand in Washington. It is nobody's fault except Bill Clinton for the situation that has been created. I think that I will close with a quote from another Presidential scoundrel who made amends with the American People. When Nixon was asked in 1985 why he didn't fight the charges and ask for an appology, he replied "I think that the sincerest form of an appology to the American people was resignation...". Nixon may be a crook but he understood redemption. I wonder if history will be this kind to Bill Clinton. -John
