I'm going to cry.

Once again I find I differ with the former President and once again I am heartily saddened. I'm saddened because I realize how far we have fallen. I had almost forgotten that you can hold the office of President of the United States and be articulate at the same time.

It seems Clinton is still enormously popular among the easily impressed.

The nihilists and the liars have buried truth alive in a shallow grave.

Some people have wisdom, and some have merely cleverness. Bush isn't perfect, but as far as the war is concerned, he's shown some real wisdom. I'll take that over Clinton's slippery cleverness any day.

It would be wonderful to have an articulate leader who also had a spine and some sense of decency toward those he is supposed to represent to the rest of the world. Unless you flat out state that GWB is only supposed to be representing the oil industry and those solvent enough to invest in him, we are pretty much screwed for a while (ping Ashton for an exact countdown.) Billy shore does talk good though.. I forgot the line from Blazing Saddles; damn.
