#1 While I'm not keen to gaze at Tubby's mug or hear his drawl again, if anyone decides to watch the prog, pay close attention to see if they even touch the subject on WHY he was impeached. I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't come up.

#2 ...pay close attention to see if they even touch the subject on WHY he was impeached...

Yeah, he's a real hero--perjuring himself before the entire nation. What a model of civic responsibility.

Not to mention the fact that he and his unprincipled wife put a great model of marriage out there for young people: men-cheat if you can "get away with it", women-you'll just have to suffer and forgive (that's a great message for poor young mothers to get impregnated again and again and stay trapped in marriages of infidelities and lies).

He may be clever, he may be articulate, but he's an embarassment to our country.

#3 Brought both a laugh and a roll of the ol' brown eyes. Great that he recognizes now that it was a "grave moral error." I'd be willing to bet money he wouldn't have if he'd never been caught.

The whole battle was a badge of honor. I don't see it as a stain, because it was illegitimate.

No, it was a badge of dishonor, being impeached for lying under oath and getting it on with interns in your office while Binny was planning big booms overseas! And it was illegitimate, that stain . . .

Is he talking about the dress?

#7 "Former President Bill Clinton calls his fight against his impeachment a "badge of honor" in an exclusive and wide-ranging 60 MINUTES interview with Dan Rather to be broadcast Sunday June 20 (7:00-8:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network"
Clinton & Rather, huh?Â Â Â Â I think I'd Rather not.

#8 Well, if boinking the Interns and lying under oath is a badge of honor, what's selling out to the Chinese? I'm pretty sure being suborned by a foreign power is well, treason?
