Around the time he was re-elected in 1996, he was thinking ahead as to how to get himself in an upper tier of U.S. Presidents in the history books.
By the time he left office a little more than four years later, he was desperately searching for some "legacy" to knock impeachment, redefining common words like "is" and "alone," cigars and neurotic, fat interns in blue dresses out of the first paragraph of his official biography.
But by late 2001, he was pathetically trying to "prove" that he nearly "got" bin laden and furiously trying to kill proof of how his negligence, selfishness and incompetence helped lead to the murder of ~4000 people in one morning.
I had long believed that impeachment and his blatant disregard for the law of the land would be his lasting legacy, but now I see what his real legacy will be, and it ain't pretty. Thanks for doing nothing to prevent the attacks of 9/11, Sink Emperor!
