Speaking of Doonesbury, isn't it funny how in eight years, the brilliant satirist, Gary Trudeau, could never find a single action of the clintoon administration to lampoon? We had two full terms of a scandal plagued administration including everything from a two hundred haircut shutting down a major airport, installing dictatorship in Haiti, hypocritical adventurism in Bosnia (where intentional bombing of civilian targets was the norm), BJ's in the Oval Orafice, constant allegations of sexual harrassment/assault, and philosophical hair-splitting over the meaning of the word "is"--- and yet, apparently nothing ever happened worthy of comment---except perhaps a mild reference or two of a "waffle" when clintoon had to back off appointment of an open socialist to high office or superficially modify his support of homosexuals having official status in the military.
As for this Rall character, he is simply a hate filled, pus oozing sore who is about as funny or insightful as fresh cat vomit. Ironically, he is somewhat thin-skinned when it come to personal criticism (or so I have read). I have e-mailed him a couple of times with particularly harsh and spicy messages in the hope that it is true Rall is troubled by such correspondance.
