Guest guest Posted October 3, 2002 Report Share Posted October 3, 2002 Oh, boy! At last.... a fun political discussion that i can sink my vampire teeth into! Heh heh. > And I think historians, when separated from the hatred and hysteria of > > today, will pass a much more positive judgement on the > accomplishments of Bill Clinton, than they will on those of the Bushs, > > and Nixon, Ford, and . I agree with you about 85%..... But altho i voted for him (the first time), i must truly admit that Mr. Clinton as a person embarrassed me horribly. It was NOT fun to explain to my then-8 yr. old step daughter what is 'oral sex'. As for the historian viewpoint, I was 10 yrs. old when JFK was assassinated. To me then, and still now.... he was a personal hero. It wasn't till i was an adult that the stories came out in the media about his alleged affairs. As if what he did in his 3 short yrs. as President, leader of our country, should be discounted because he played around. Same with Republican presidents. My p.o.v. is that we elect human beings as leaders. Human beings have flaws. They have sexual drives. They don't always use good judgment. But if their poor judgment does not affect this COUNTRY, who gives a rat's behinder? If they ran a lesbian woman for President, and she had the character and policies and ideology that I agree with..... I'd vote for her in a New York minute. I don't care a bit what she does in her bedroom.... i only care how she runs this country. Heck, i don't even care if she is male or female, black or white or 'other'. That being said, Clinton ran this country very well. Just look at today's stock market report, and compare that to 4 yrs. ago. Just look at today's unemployment rates, and do the same. Just look at what you pay in taxes today, and compare that to 4 yrs. ago. I don't even want to go into what Mr. Bush senior left unfinished in Iraq --- and how his son is suddenly so keen to even the record. I rest my case.
