It seems to have made some really upset. But if they
read it, and/or my follow up post they should know
that I did not make these statements, merely printed
what was written in a Philly paper. I did make any
statements as to whether I did or did not support what
had been said therein.

Well, you're not the first source where I've heard such drivel. You certainly presented as if it were your own beliefs, so I acted angrily towards you.

What burns me up is that the Clinton Administration - - no matter what you think of them - - did, indeed, try to deal with the problem of Bin Laden and Al-Qaida. They had no support, from home or abroad. The Clinton-hating world had a new catch-phrase at the time, "Wag the Dog," - - remember?

This is a prime example of how the public's inability to keep themselves out of the White House bedroom harmed our country in a most extreme way. The business of our country was halted by a society fixated on the groin. There was a time when society, for the betterment of our country, would find it inappropriate to discuss such matters as the fondling habits of our President. Richard Nixon, JFK - - many of our Presidents had Mistresses, but no one talked about them. We certainly didn't get intimate details and material evidence.

I just hope this country has learned something from all this.
