Thread Name: BS: 10 Worst Mistakes by US Presidents
Subject: RE: BS: 10 Worst Mistakes by US Presidents
well, Cruiser....you have made your position clear, but I must note that using words like "shamed" "immoral" "base" and "terrible" is quite subjective. "Stupid" is a word that comes to MY mind..."careless" is even better.

   I do accept that by BEING stupid & careless, Clinton allowed all that infamy to distort his image and cause public attention to be focused on matters that should NEVER be part of the political process.
He should have been sternly censured, then the subject should have been dropped. I just do not think that tawdry behavior is grounds for demanding resignation. I did not vote for him to be a paradigm of virtue in personal matters, though that's valuble.....I asked him to be an astute judge of issues for the country, and to make complex & relevant decisions....and THAT, I feel, he did fairly well.
