Isn't North the guy who spent as much time at the shredder as the klintons did? The guy looked and sounded great in his dress uniform but he still destroyed evidence that could have led to massive corruption.

Don't know what you mean by that, but I think he destroyed evidence that, fallen into the hands of the 'Rats in Congress, could have led to the deaths of undercover agents working for us in Central America.

Ben Franklin said that well done is better than well said. Col. North did both in a way that strengthened America, rather than hurt. There are no similarities between Oliver North and Slick Willy.

Service Alpha's, not dress uniform.

There was no "massive corruption". There was a witch hunt by democrats in Congress. And this witch hunt is not comaprable to the alleged witch hunt described by democrats against Clinton corruption. The reason is simple : Colonel North was not interested in enriching himself and deceiving others to save his hide. He was motivated out of patriotism to save the lives of intelligence officers and Contras.

One can jaywalk to suit their own purposes of convenience, or one can jaywalk to rush and save a life. The intents are completely different. Those that can't see it, don't want to see it. As far as I'm concerned, such people are with the terrorists.
