I don't think so. He is a character, and I enjoyed him as president, but I can't take him seriously anymore after he shook his finger at me (and the world) and said, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman." Jon Sagara Hi! I'm Melanoma, Moley Russell's wart. -- Uncle Buck

Not that I would vote for him, but he would probably win if he ran against GWB[^] X| Later,

It was important because he was giving misleading information in sexual harassment case. The whole issue wasn't about sex, it was about lying to the courts. He has been disbared and suspended from practicing law before the Supreme Court. It is somewhat like why Nixon got in trouble. Watergate wasn't Nixon's folly. His mistake was the coverup.

I'm not sure. He was entertaining but, W is aslo o so funny. I personaly would have loved to seen junior and Gore debate more.

If you want to use the "he who is without blame throw the first stone" line against someone who is not Prez, fine. But, though no one really expects politicians at that level to be free of vice, we at least expect them to be better at hiding it than the average joe on the street, and certainly better at handling it when they're found out. Clinton had plenty of chances to come out of that whole mess with at least a shred of integrity, and he pissed them all away. It's embarrassing - "Leader of the Free World" & all that, and he can't even pull off a half-assed cover-up on a pathetic little affair with an intern. :-O I'm not gonna argue 'bout the rest - anyone who didn't know Clinton was scum by the time he was elected in '92 had their hands over their eyes; acting surprised about it was just lame. :zzz:

Why not? He is the best republican president you will ever going to get. ;-) As far as the rest of world is concerned, any idiot will be better than GWB.

Ok, it seems I wasn't too clear. I didn't mean I didn't care about what he did (the lying, the perjury), but of the way it was handled in the press. Don't tell me the average joe gave a damn about the lying or the perjury -- they just wanted the legal crap to end so they could read the "how the president did me in his private jet" spread in [insert US equivalent of the Daily Mirror here], and the "how he sent bodyguards to steal my [tapes/dress/photos]" special on NBC.
