Like a typical Texan, what George W. is doing is from the heart, and his political standing makes not one whoop in hell to him when measured against the welfare of this country.

Dang, Cob. I love you, but I do not think anyone is above justice.

Why hasn't he siced Ashcrort on the Clintons?

I do not want to move along and go forward.

I love you, too, carenot.
Let's look at this from a larger perspective:

Suppose George W. did go after Bill Clinton and set a precedent that the next time a President of a different political party was elected, the new President would be forced by protocol to "go after" the previous President.
It would happen as surely as the sun comes up in the morning.
The political wounds run deep and memories are long.
The pressure would be there to dig up everything that could possibly be used to incriminate the previous President.
Do we want our Presidents tied up in old grudge campaigns against political enemies that would drag on for years?
Of course Bill Clinton deserves a prison sentence if not a firing squad, but that opens up a can of worms that George W. has wisely, in my opinion, chosen to keep the lid on.

I don't like it either that Slick and his Witch have gotten off scot-free, and, in fact, made money off his shenanigans, but I think this is a case of the lesser of the two evils.
