assistant: While Centurion snarled at Joseph, Joe chants his polymorph spell...
That is simple: times were good, and the Repubs had no viable candidate.
Running because "it is MY TURN!!" is not viable, especially when all the
numbers look good. People will forgive a lot when they can eat.
Although he may be scum, and I agree with you to a point, we must
question the depth of this special prosecutor. Unfortunately, we must
wait for the results to really do the questioning. If he has nothing, I
will join the Dems in howling, because that is MY tax money he is using.
But if he has something, it better be more than Clinton boinking his
interns. I honestly don't think asking your adulterous lover to lie
about an affair is a big deal. It is expected. Illegal, yes. But a HIGH
CRIME? Give me a break.
I am not MM, I am JL. "Well, they did IT!" is not an excuse in my book.
I still think lying about an adulterous affair is not a high crime,
perjury or not. Clinton is a lousy President, but he really hasn't
trashed the country THAT BAD. As a gun activist, I know for a fact we
have actually gained ground on many fronts. So I don't think he will be
impeached. At the very least, he will go down in history as the scum bag
he is. I don't have a problem with that; I only hope America doesn't
make the same mistake again in 2000.
