Yes, but we had a good stretch in terms of trust: Ford, Carter,
Reagan, Bush.  Of course Pres. Reagan had the Iran-Contra thing but
that was, really, a much lesser offense the Mr. Bush's fake war.  That
is, it makes you appreciate the days when all you had to worry about
was a few guns in a banana republic.  Nowadays, it's the guns, troops,
money, reconstruction contracts, and lost world prestige.  Mr. Bush's
screw ups make Mr. Reagan's look like an inconsequntial li'l white
lie.

Pres Clinton, however, gave many Americans the impression that he
didn't honor the Whitehouse.  While that is an issue of trust, it's
mostly an issue of symbolism.
