I remember when Clinton was President, the Republicans were after him every minute, like a rabid dog who won't let go of your pantleg. In the days when special prosecutors were making big bucks investigating cabinet members about Super Bowl tickets. All the paranoia about Vince Foster, the Whitewater non-scandal, and then the sex soap opera.

Has anybody ever tallied up what all this cost the American taxpayer? And how it must have looked to the rest of the World?

Policy-wise, Clinton was a good President. Times were much better than they are today. My stocks were doing better. His problem was that he's a dumb politician, and underestimated how far his opponents would go to get him. Smart and stupid--that's how I've heard him characterized in my travels abroad. Sounds about right.

Bush is damn lucky they got rid of those special prosecutors.
We can't afford them anymore, anyways, fighting wars.
