Also not remembered was that George H.W. Bush had the savings and loan along with the mortgage messes cleaned up and done when Clinton entered office—only to be undone by later policies.

How the White House tried to handle Monica Lewinsky

Interesting, but how the White House handled the Vince Foster death will be far more interesting. Is there any information revealed regarding Foster?

Thank you for your sanity, Chainmail.

“Bill Clinton, President of the United States and Hilary, First Lady of the United States ” should have never happened to this great Nation. The Clinton Criminal Couple - now there's an accurate description.

Emphasis added. Politico is suspect.

Monica is lucky she didnt end up just like him.

That’s when the Sunday football games get cancelled...

[what's up]

Agreed. Clinton was/is scum.

we had a scandal a week under him just like with Obama.

His lax security got us 9/11.

he and his wife are now running to get away from Benghazi as they take in millions. The sooner we are rid of the poisonous clintons the better.

Funny thing is that M(BJ)L probably still blames Tripp.

Truth being, if not for Tripp convincing (BJ) to save the blue dress, (BJ) would probably ended up being a part of National Airport expansion, not even given the ‘ride’ to Fort Marcy overlook.

Then again Tripp did raise enough stink to remain breathing though believe it was Luci Goldberg(?) that was ‘Tripps’ adviser.

Think her and her son also got their ‘15 minutes’ off the back of Tripp etal....

[Graybeard58]

All one has to do is look at the pardons bill gave as he left office. He’s a scumbag

And the Clintons took the White House silverware and furnishings with them when they left, also the letter "W" from all the keyboards - a real class act those Clintons.

[Kenny Bunk]

Clinton was always sleazy and corrupt, and he was brutal when it served his interests

BJ was not the worst President by far. In moral terms, he simply was the worst man to have the job.

I include Obama in the above. He will be remembered as the worst President. But, since he is so demonstrably stupid and obviously the tool of Team Obama, his character has really nothing to do with it. He is a none-too-bright ideologue. Important to remember in contrasting this maladroit oaf with Clinton is that Obama is not an American and has demonstrated no clue of knowing what the rest of us are about.

People lived in fear for their lives from the Clinton regime. As others have said on this thread supported by other remembrances of the Clintons’ reign of terror, You guys are wrong to say you miss Clinton.

[Kenny Bunk]

OBTW, Team Obama handled Reggie Love, Obama's "Monica," a great deal better than Clinton handled the Lewinsky Matter.

The tattooed fatties in the Wal-Mart parking lot have never even heard of Reggie!

[PROCON]

You guys are wrong to say you miss Clinton.

Kristinn, I did not mean miss him, I was comparing two evils and picked Clinton as the lesser. That doesn't exonerate his behavior or make me a Klinton supporter.

[captmar-vell]

Very true,

I still remember when the White House was actively trying to destroy Lewinsky as some crazy mentally unbalanced stalker being mentored by a loving and caring Bill, that is, here’s a young intern with her whole life ahead of her having the golden career opportunity to work in the White House, and she was nothing more than an object to be abused and then discarded over the castle wall, that was, until she produced the blue dress and they had to do a 180, and of course the press made sure not to notice or call attention to it so the dumbed down voters wouldn’t detect anything wrong,

Hillary is now hoping for a Republican senate and house, while distancing herself from DC as a middle of the road centrist, triangulation scheming once again, and why not, the voters don’t seem to be able to detect it,

She knows the weak-kneed limp wristed Republican leadership will do nothing whatsoever as far as opposition to Obama, so she will easily contrast all the bad things increasingly occurring over the next two years as do nothing Republican failures. The MSM will provide all of the necessary fawning press coverage and Americans will eat it up as truth and demand her experience and strong outside the beltway leadership for 2016,

So cue up the sacrificial “bob dole” republican rino fall guy, Jeb or Mitt etc., but not McCain, hes as likely to endorse her as Obama is,

[Vaduz]

BINGO

[SunkenCiv]

“...but mostly, Clinton, like Carter before him and Obama after him, relied on partisan media shills, who refused to cover what had actually been going on.”

[kristinn]

You expressed yourself poorly then:

"I miss him."

"I'm with you, Clinton is much preferred over 0bola."

But, okay.

[Vermont Lt]

I would not be so particular. At this stage, doing a “Weekend at Bernies” with Reagan would still be head and shoulders above Obama.
