Clinton did a masterful job putting the art of governance into a broader perspective last week at the dedication of his remarkable library in Little Rock. Typically, The Natural performed this feat while winging it, instead of trying to read a prepared speech in a driving rainstorm.
In just a few minutes of oratory while the rain plastered down his hair, the former president managed to say more of consequence than any other political figure has blabbered since the latest ugly election season mercifully ended. Instead of new thinking or deep thinking, politicians have mostly been positioning themselves, thinking narrowly. President Bush ran a parade of promotions of patsies and yes people in preparation for more of the same; Senator John McCain signaled a return to independence by slamming Bush for inaction in the face of ongoing climate change; Senator Chuck Hagel all but announced that he is running in 2008; and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist quietly burnished his credentials with conservative activists by helping make Arlen Specter practically beg to get his chairmanship of the Judiciary Committee.
On the Democratic side, John Kerry signaled he won't ape Al Gore by growing a beard and teaching college kids, but is instead back in action with a Senate statement deploring the budget deficit; and Hillary Rodham Clinton, pre-library dedication, displayed her ability to deliver a tour of the foreign policy horizon in a speech in Massachusetts.

What will be remembered about Clinton is nothing about Clinton himself but how many millions of American citizens were so gullible, so weak, so willing to be hornswoggled and seduced by the ultimate snake-oil salesman with a Law Degree.

1. The Clintons are pro-abortion. Our children deserve better.
2. The Clintons are against school vouchers. Our children deserve better.
3. The Clintons are against our ballistic missile defense system. Our children deserve to be protected from rogue North Korean nuclear missiles.
4. The Clintons want Americans to be subjected to the International Criminal Court, which has no Bill of Rights, no right to see your accuser, no jury, and no appeal. Our citizens deserve better.
5. The Clintons want the Kyoto Treaty on Global Warming to become law. That treaty will eventually lead to the prohibition of gasoline-powered automobiles. We deserve better than to return to the pre-industrial age.
Just as I suspected, that lump in Clinton's throat was Oliphant's nose.
"Oliphant." Isn't that Swahili for "Steaming pile of Elephant dung”?

In 8 years, Clinton accomplished nothing except to produce a presidential administration that finally managed to produce something less than the nearly unnoticeable Kennedy administration. Neither lecherous incompetent accomplished anything of value.
i'm sorry? i was EMOTING, not writing....longing for the good old days when we had old bubba to kick around...
I know ===it was meant as a compliment---it was bound to remind me of the roman a clef potboiler by DKB I read a page of somewhere years ago. I'm sure you remember DKB as one of Clinton's mistresses from the paleolithic era of his philandering, in Arkansas. And whaddyamean, WHEN we had Bubba to kick around---we STILL have him to kick around! HE WON'T GO AWAY!!!!
