For years anyone willing to observe the Clintons clearly has recognized that their corruption is unprecedented. The Boy President has engaged in serial sex romps and Byzantine cover-ups. He has engaged in campaign finance violations that occasioned dangerous technology transfers to his foreign campaign donors. All of these aberrant schemes have required massive cover-ups involving a small army of Administration cronies. Yet in domestic policy a president's seductive powers can obviously get him through.
Foreign policy is a different matter.
Now he has landed the United States in the soup. From the editorial pages of such diverse newspapers as the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times come reports that a reckless, distracted president blundered his way into a war for which we were not prepared. Owing to the recklessness of his character and his belief that he can humbug anyone, the Boy President has committed vast military resources pursuing a failed policy that has already led to thousands of deaths. Declare victory and leave. Yet the rest of the world is watching.
