I guess there are some short memories about the Clinton Scandal. But people sometimes are so gullible. First and foremost it was the Washington Publisher who funded the Philadelphia Law firm who scouted out the Paula Jones, etc. at a cost of millions. It was a personal vendetta, and still is. We know that Jones was paid for and scripted. Clintons choices of who to accept sexual favors from, is, I guess, in many people's mind much more onerous than his proven ability to manage a congress controlled by the opposition. As for me, I like the state of the economy during that period and set records in earnings. To me his biggest mistake was the appointment of Janet Reno as Attorney General, after which a record low was hit in federal prosecutions. Having just filed my 2001 tax return, I note the "gift" of a check last summer, was merely an advance on your tax bill, and in the return you give it all back. The so-called Bush tax cut is all smoke and mirrors, spread out over 11 years when it totally evaporates. He is still ranting and raving because he cannot get more tax favors for his oil patch buddies. It is coming out already that he and Enron were in bed together, even though Enon already pays no taxes. Bush is on the campaign trail, taking full advantage of the political plum that was dropped into his lap by the luck of the Supreme court coin toss.
The Changes (very expensive) in Airport Security are 90% feel good actions, and do not address any of the problems leading up to 9-11. The country still does not have a passport control program, not can they keep tabs on visitor visas, which was the problem leading up to 9-11. They still do not have communication between the INS and local law enforcement. They do not enforce the laws forbidding employers from hiring illegals. What is more, they do not have any real plans on doing anything about this weakness. AS for Colin Powell, he is a moderate, as was Bill Clinton. Both believe in equal opportunity, however it remains to be seen just how he would implement the policy. Get real folks!
