And .. if I remember correctly, in one of the books written about the Clinton admin .. I think it was Clinton's chief of staff who gleefully recounted to some of Clinton's cabinet members about all the items they had left for Bush that were like bombs waiting to go off.
I'm wondering if a portion of their made is that the bombs didn't go off - because Bush was smarter than they gave him credit for - and he defused a lot of stuff - partly by writing EO's and undoing the junk Clinton tried to do without having to go through Congress. This was also the reason Hillary used to whine a lot about how Bush was undoing everything they had built - she was right - Bush destroyed all Bill's EO's - or the bombs waiting to go off.
We have got to get to the polls and get rid of this scum once and for all. I'm sick of this C_ _ P!
I think I remember Paul Begala being interviewed right near the end of the Clinton administration, and he said something like "We've left some land mines for the new administration."
I've searched on the web for the comment, but couldn't find it. Perhaps it wasn't Begala, and that's why I'm having problems finding it.
