"Culpable negligence" [from Hitchens] is the appropriate term describing the media nad others who have gone so far beyond merely oversight.

Global Crossing now is also bankrupt. I think we have no one in the media that can even write the story on this whole picture as it involces deep interrelationships between business, government, international trade, and Clinton corruption. The true Clinton legacy we all will be repairing from over the next decade.

Global Crossing and Enron both were at once highly regulated, global, involved in broadband delivery, had Arthur Andersen contacts, and had questionable customer creditworthiness.

It is my view that clinton devastation is largely irreversible...and perpetual...

(That is not to say that purging the system of anything clinton should not be our number one objective. )

I think that history will view this much differently. They will say I made a bad personal mistake, I paid a serious price for it, but that I was right to stand and fight for my country and my constitution and its principles...

...[bill clinton], a man who will be regarded in the history books as one of our greatest presidents.

I suspect that, to spite us all,

Arthur Schlesinger will live to 120

just so he can write

the definitive clinton hagiography.

History Lesson

by Mia T

 

Someone--was it Maupassant?--

once called history "that excitable and lying old lady."

The same can be said of historians.

 

Surely it can be said of Doris Kearns Goodwin,

the archetypical pharisaical historian,

not-so-latently clintonoid,

Lieberman-Paradigmatic

(i.e., clinton is an unfit president;

therefore clinton must remain president),

intellectually dishonest,

(habitually doing what the Arthur Schlesingers of this world do:

making history into the proof of their theories).

 

The Forbids 400's argument is shamelessly spurious.

They get all unhinged over the impeachment of clinton,

claiming that it will

"leave the presidency permanently disfigured and diminished,

at the mercy as never before of the caprices of any Congress."

 

Yet they dismiss the real and present--and future!!--danger

to the presidency and the country

of not impeaching and removing

this admittedly unfit, (Goodwin)

"documentably dysfunctional," (NYT)

presidency-diminishing, (Goodwin)

power-abusing,

psychopathic thug.

 

Doris Kearns Goodwin and those 400 other

hog-and-bow-tied-save-clinton,

retrograde-obsessing historiographers

are a supercilious, power-hungry,

egomaniacal lot in their own right.

 

For them, clinton validates

what Ogden Nash merely hypothesized:

Any buffoon can make history,

but only a great man can write it.
