Reply #99: Thanks. I like the Mark Twain quote.

I can recall feeling bad for Clinton in the final months of his second term. The Rethugs had mercilessly ravaged his presidency from its inception, corporate media predictably went right along with it, and I always felt he didn't get enough help from the Dems in the House and Senate, or concerned citizens for that matter, in fending them off.

While his personal failings and willingness to engage in deception did bother me, I could get past it believing, at the time, that he did actually care about, and wanted to help, ordinary people.

I think I was mistaken.
