I posted this elsewhere, but the comments are relevant.

I forced myself to watch his interview with Dan Blather last night on 60 Minutes. In between me yelling "F*** you" (among other things) at the TV I learned this:

- He said that he wouldn't pardon Marc Rich again, not because he thinks that it is wrong, but because of the press and flak that he received.

- He "hated" that 18 Americans died on 3-4OCT93.

- He was glad that his mom wasn't alive to see the Lewinsky thing.

- He is very upset that his presidency will be remembered for the impeachment and not for "the good things I've done."

- He made an effort to stop bin Laden, he "really tried."

- He is most hurt by the nickname "Slick Willie."

As an aside his presidential library in LR, AR will have a full-scale model of the Oval Office (this is news to me) so people can see what it is like. No word on whether it comes with a Lewinsky mannequin under the desk....


1) No remorse.... only concern with opinion and his "image". My God, how I hate that President's are worried about the legacy and whatnot. How about freedom? Isn't THAT good enough?

2) "Hated" that they died? I'm sure they hated that you and Les Aspin didn't cowboy up and support them. When you are President you don't get a deferment from war...

3) Don't be a whore and you won't have to worry about your mother's perception of you.

4) The good things? Here's your list, Slick:

5) "Really tried?" I think we know how that turned out.

6) Don't act like a lying, back-stabbing, scheming SOB and you won't be viewed as such.

My wife was 19 when he first ran for the presidency and she voted for him. Like many, she was swayed by his charisma. By his re-election she'd seen first-hand the results of his presidency, his "legacy" and the "good things", and voted for Dole. She hasn't looked back.

The guy is a turd.
