Hey I maxed out early on contributions for the Clintons before Obama took off. Bottom line, the Clintons are a terrible example for this country in so many ways. I never in my wildest dreams thought a disbarred lawyer (Bill Clinton) could run around claiming authority to do anything. What an utter waste of everybody’s time those two are. But they are such a complete terrible example of leadership.</p> And what do you get with the Clintons back in the White House, another lost Congress (94), NAFTA, Communications Act of 96, George Tenet, Sandy Berger, self indulgence to the extreme, ineffectiveness and personal business plans for their future.
