(25,183 posts)assholes to be assholes. I really don't recall the Clintons racking up legal bills over the Vince Foster situation, since no executive or legislative body tried to hold them responsible for his suicide, only the reich-wing press did that.
In any case, I assert that if Bill Clinton had come clean way back when the name Monica Lewinsky had surfaced, then they would have gotten a lot of it behind them quickly. Issuing denials just prolonged the pain, and kept him from working on OUR agenda, rather than spending his time trying to save his own ass.
Remember all the jokes Jay Leno, etc. were making about Dubya being a coke-head during the 2000 election? Wouldn't Repukes have been really pissed off at Shrub if a video tape of a cocaine party at the White House leaked out during his term in office? Well, Junior didn't give his enemies any ammunition other than his stupid official decisions, and he managed to get way too much of what he wanted by keeping his nose out of the blow, at least in ways that we'd all find out about. Was I asking for too much to expect that from the Clintons?
