But he was gunning for a President who sat on top of a Tulip bubble economy. Great analogy! Such are the reason I read every post you make that I find! [BTW, didn't Floriad arise from the Tulip Bulb bull market'?]

I'm with you, Gore's ascension would have doomed this nation. Personally, I don't believe the Jones lawsuit should have been allowed to go forward during a sitting predient's term in office ... civil cases should be put off until the term ends. Now a criminal case (which is what the Jones case turned into, after the morass was allowed to proceed), well, that's a different worm to turn. SinkEmperor was impeached for something that surfaced during an ill-advised lawsuit, when he should have been impeached and hanged for the treachery he and his criminal enterprise perpetrated during their rule over America. There's a certain culpability for the Pubbies in that, somewhere.

The only thing you can possibly blame them for is overestimating Bill Clinton's ability to have shame. It was a blind spot that every one of the House managers and Ken Starr had, IMHO. Then again, it showed that many of the right had honor and decency to be ashamed of such actions.

Didn't George Bush Sr. denounce a Republican with a KKK past? Look how the Dems handled their former Klansman.
