Watergate revisited
 
It sure will be interesting listening to the government argue against the
Watergate rulings right before an election, huh?

Lessee....Bush has his head handed to him by his own party over the
immigration reform bill....Iraq is a disaster, his own party is finally
growing some balls (or got clocked by the calendar) and is starting to bail on
him over Iraq...He got laughed at by the G8 as a johnny-come-lately with zero
credibility...He's still getting killed over Gitmo...Rice has *totally* ****ed
up the Palestine thing yet won't let anyone else try to fix it...There's that
dirty little bidness about the Attorney General and the State AGs that just
won't go away...The gang of how many? Republicans running for 2008 only
mention Bush when they need something to bash...Cheney is finding novel ways
to thumb his nose at the constitution (what else is new?)...Staff are bailing
out daily...No sign of anything remotely approaching a legacy in sight....

Seems to me a good court fight might be Yet Another 'Just The Distraction We
Needed Right Now' deal for BushCo....

Change the names and a couple of words, and it'd sound like something
Coulter would say about the last 18 months of Billary's clown act...that
said, you're right about the rubbers...

IMO, in 40 years, damned few will remember Clinton or Bush...ask the
average college student about Lyndon, Tricky Dick, or Carter, and
they'll likely tell you they haven't heard any of their songs...but if
you IM them a link, they'll check 'em out on their iPhone...

So, what you're saying is that in ten or fifteen years they'll be you.

Yeah, you're probably right.

Perhaps, when all you have to "say" is to post a link...well, it's
obvious...I didn't say anything good, bad, or indifferent about those
with a legacy in question, I only spoke with regard to some of those to
whom that legacy may or may not be known...

....some say that when people see 4 oz. of water in an 8 oz. glass, some
say it's half full, while others say it's half empty...those observers
forget that there is always gonna be the random assorted nut that claims
some vast political conspiracy used alien technology to make half the
water invisible...

Bush only commuted Libby's sentence. It wasn't a pardon. Libby still
has a criminal record.

The real corruption started when he pardoned Clinton.

How many convicted felons did Clinton pardon on his way out?
