& who will be left when they will?
...if that is of any comfort.Like AIDS, once you get them, there is no getting rid.
Victor,
we can agree on this! In about a year he will be gone. That, at least,
should give you a smile.
I doubt it. Is there any question in anyone's mind that this !@(#*%^& won't be dictating divisive rhetoric from the sidelines, if not dragged kicking & screeming from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
***Victor,

should give you a smile.As many people around me were screaming bloody murder when he took over, I told them that this country has tremedous potential of digesting junk and still surviving - much like most healthy bodies. We could tolerate certain amount of poison because we had a pretty good momentum going for us. Personally to me Clinton was largely irrelevant and insignificant.
The problem will be if we keep adding that kind of poison to our system. At some point it is bound to collapse.
...once pointed out to me that the strength of our system is its constitution and institutions - judicial, legislative, executive and the basis of our underlying economic system. His point was that in the short run politicians frankly have very little if any real impact. In fact, his attitude was one of politicians being little more than overhead with a propensity for grandstanding but little real influence. If any one really doubts this - consider that we have experienced the single greatest sustained period of prosperity under the reign of Mr. C than at any time in our country's history. Does anyone think it really had anything top do with him?The longer I live and observe the more convinced I become my friend was right.
In its own way it strikes me that if our elected officials and potential candidates are wasting their time in the endless debate over a single child they have less time on their hands to screw up the underlying system that really drives our country's success.

They work quietly until the roof caves in.
I'm worried about what they're doing while the headlines are occupied with Elian.
