Mlsoft, No question Clinton was a slime! But look at Congress during the same time period. Surely there were more pressing national priorities than Monica Lewinsky, her mother, Tripp & Goldberg (wretches-squared), and the unforgettable "blue dress" (from the Gap!!)....
The 1998 embassey attacks were a major wake-up call for the US and it's gov. Yet gov was more concerned with sleeze politics, than with clear national security issues or anything else for that matter.... So fanatic terrorists bombed our embassies, engaged in other acts of war and devilry while Clinton and Co concerned themselves with focus groups and pollsters. The Republicans were obsessed with their witch hunt, while We, the People, watched Geraldo with OJ like fascination.... And when Clinton did dropped a couple of token bombs, Trent Lott and the rest of the smut police in Congress yelled "Wag the Dog"!!...
To me the Clinton Era, and Lewinsky Era, specifically, represented a huge failure of gov - a very dark period in our history. I often wonder if gov had responded responsibily to the attacks of 1998, could 9/11 have been avoided or averted?... Could those 3000 people have been saved if our elected officials taken gov serious? Could they have been saved if We, the People, had taken our roll in gov serious and demanded higher standards of those we elected to the highest levels of public service?... Tragically, we will never know the answer....
