Not flaming,however,one thing that makes it difficult to "just move on" is that the sentiment to do so was HIS motto-part of HIS "political skills".

Yes, but why waste time pining for the unachievable, i.e., revenge? What happened from 1993-2001 happened, it can't be changed. We now have a real president who's just led this country to a victory in a foreign war, and now needs to turn his attention to a different kind of war at home with people who want to destroy him and prevent him from enacting a vision in this country that I think the vast majority of posters here would like to see enacted, and I personally think that focusing on the past distracts us from that mission.

I don't mean forget what happened. We need to learn from it and try not to make the same mistakes. But we don't need to dwell on it.

And, thank God, I don't see anyone either currently on the Dem side, or on the horizon, with anything close to Bubba's skills, so I doubt we'll have to deal with his like again any time soon. I wouldn't urinate on the man if he was on fire in front of me, but giving Satan his due, I think he was one of the five greatest U.S. politicians of the 20th century, the others being FDR, Nixon, George Wallace and Reagan. And I'm judging him and the others strictly on their skills as practitioners of the art and science of politics, not on their philosophies or stances on the issues.
