I suspect you drink the well brand bourbon, Pat, as you seem fond of the =
predictable cheap shot. =20
According to the Starr Report, in terms of total minutes with trousers do=
wn, Bill didn't spend all that much time getting his pickle tickled by Mo=
nica Lewinsky, certainly not enough to qualify as a dereliction of duty. =
(The total number of minutes he spent with Ms. Lewinsky during their tet=
e-a-tallywhackers is perhaps the most embarrassing information to come fr=
om Starr's investigation. It reminds me of The Reverend Jim Bakker's enc=
ounter with Jessica Hahn, which, according to Jim, Jessica, and Tammy Fay=
e, lasted a total of fifteen minutes -- and that counted transportation t=
o and from the hotel room, getting his boxers off and her bra unhooked, a=
nd switching off the bolted-to-the-table motel lamp. Not exactly Last Ta=
ngo in Paris.)
The Clinton Administration, like the Bush Administration, both made mista=
kes in dealing with Al Qaeda, but if we're to fault Clinton for his relat=
ionship with Monica, let's not forget the massive distraction the Republi=
cans provoked with their ridiculous $50 million investigation of same. T=
he Republican leadership was so obsessed with the how, when, and where of=
those Presidential hummers that when Clinton ordered 60 cruise missiles =
be fired into a camp in Afghanistan to kill Osama bin Laden, Tom DeLay an=
d Company accused him of "wagging the dog." In the realm of fictional "w=
hat ifs," you might keep in mind that one could just as easily argue that=
the Republicans would have served their country better if they'd acted l=
ess like Arthur Chillingsworth and more like Jack Ryan.
