First, this is another post that consists of a screed and an insult rather than any substance about his alleged marvelous record of standing steadfastly for liberal Democratic values and principles. That is understandable, since in virtually every major policy area this Third Way President has pushed a Bush III agenda.
Second, I would suggest you look up the difference between fact and opinion, because your response to Bonobo above is just silly.
