My opinion on this topic of whether Clinton is a lesser evil can be discerned from my response to an old David Letterman top ten list question - "none". Below is the question and Dave's top ten responses: "Ways the U.S. Would Be Different If the Next President Were a Dog" As presented on the 7/8/94 broadcast of LATE SHOW with DAVID LETTERMAN 10. Doggy door on oval office 9. At press conferences, instead of "Mr. President," reporters would shout, "Here fella!" 8. Goodbye Whitewater scandal, hello toilet bowl water scandal 7. Washington Monument replaced with hundred-story fire hydrant 6. U.S. might have more coherent foreign policy 5. Public enemy #1: That neutering bastard Bob Barker 4. Secret service and CIA dispatched to catch that little chuck wagon 3. Country really run by dog's smarter poodle wife 2. Here's your new national anthem: (videotape of dog barking x-mas jingle) 1. One word: sausage-gate ---------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Doug Henwood Sent: Friday, May 24, 1996 12:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: evil of two lessers Savor this, Clinton apologists. From Paul Gigot's column in today's (May 24) Wall Street Journal (Gigot is quite right-wing, for those who don't read him): "Lately, Mr. Clinton has been moving so fast to the right that he's beating Mr. Dole to the spot. He declared his opposition to same-sex marriage before the Kansan could make it an issue. Then, les Mr. Dole find even an inch of running room, the president pre-emptively endorsed a GOP bill to allow other states to ignore the Constitution's Full Faith and Credit clause and reject Hawaii's looming endorsement of gay marriage. Who needs the Christian Coalition when Bill Clinton is around. [...] [D]on't look for Mr. Clinton actually to defend federal welfare. Instead he's taking credit for reforms by GOP governors that are more radical than anything his own advisors favor. The official White House line this week is that there's no difference between Bob Dole and Bill Clinton on welfare! [...] [C]onfident liberals might ponder how difficult it would be for Mr. Clinton to govern as a liberal after he's campaigned, in essence, for a kinder, gentler Contract With America."
