Hey Skep,

"And let's not confuse fascination with his celebrity as President with acceptance of or agreement with his politics"

Ditto X42 (that's clinton), except now the press doesn't have that problem, the public does. In fact the local press begrudgingly put their story BELOW THE FOLD!

That's why I wrote the stupid headline and story.

Mr. Morse,

"It's sad that a past president commands headlines while the present president has little to say of any great interest"

See Skeptic's comment above, x42's celebrity is fleeting but still titilating to the press. The defenders are becoming fewer and fewer. Now that the protection of the office is gone, look for the immunity floodgates to open as the truth starts to get into the mainstream.

I'll bet it's no accident that "W" and Ashcroft are keeping mum about clinton legal developments.

PRESIDENT BUSH had plenty to say and he was interrupted by applause at least 25 times.

He has been drawing record crowds in "democrat" states (like De Ash Hole's South Dakota) and receiving Rock Star-like reception wherever he goes.

"Maybe he really will go away if we ignore him"

Yes, I guarantee he will go away in 8 years.

Dear Thief,

"He'll go away to the North Slope and throw arsenic-laden soil all over the place"

I suppose you are talking about the issue concerning the 5 to 20 parts per billion allowance of arsenic in drinking water , a standard whose level has yet to be set by the scientific community on the NATURALLY OCCURING MINERAL.

Why don't we have the EPA force communities to BOIL all water, DISTILL THE STEAM and HAND DELIVER it in STERILIZED BOTTLES so we can FLUSH OUR TOILETS and WATER OUR LAWNS with it.

GET A BLEEPING FAUCET FILTER

"We need to NOT ignore him very closely"

No, no, Kendall is right, just keep on ignoring and mocking him.
