And yet even in spite of all of that he managed to leave office with a 66% approval rating. On some unfathomably evil level, he never ceases to amaze.
I don't know who you hang out with, but even my democrat associates were embarrassed by the man and happy to see him go, before he brought anymore shame to the party. Politically, he had already lost the congress to the GOP for the first time in over 40 years in 1994 and the senate also. And you add to that all the accusations of sexual assault, the ugliness of the Lewinski scandal, he was a real embarrassment.
George Will spoke for most Americans when he said. “Clinton may not have been the worst President ever, but he was clearly the worst person to ever be President.”
He never amazes me, he's exactly what I expect, a pathetic egomaniac who places himself above everything else in the world, regardless of the consequences, a man consumed by his narcissistic personality and insatiable lust for attention. He's the fat, unathletic kid the other kids made fun of and the girls ignored, who will spend the rest of his life trying to prove he isn't the fat unathletic kid everyone ignored.
What he never will understand is that greatness comes from within, from giving, from thinking of others first. People who are so fiercely focused on self, perpetual takers and users, never amount to anything.
Bill Clinton goes down in history with hardly a mention, except maybe for the perversity of the major scandal in his Presidency. He hopefully will be the only President to shove a cigar up a young women's vagina in the Oval office. That might be remembered for the sure shock value of it all.
