Does talking about the size of one's boat and the lack of penis size
qualify as a boating topic? Since it includes the word boat, and penis
size seems to be a universal concern (Yes, size does matter), it is
probably appropriate.

I am not horrified by it, but you started the 'incompetence' thread.
Clinton is a liar. Show me a politician who doesn't lie and I'll donate
to their campaign.

I hate us being in this war, I'd vote to bring all the troops home NOW
and be done with it.

Now there's a whole list of other issues Clinton mismanaged that are not
exactly shining moments of his administration. Clinton didn't go to war,
but he had the chance to prevent it along time ago. He failed to act &
respond at that time.

Go to an appropriate forum and refresh your memory. Without rebutting
your statement and promoting even more political argument, I will
suggest you start by looking up the response of the congressional
majority when Clinton lobbed some cruise missles at Osama bin Ladin's
training camps. See if you don't find congressional comments decrying
the cost of each missle, and a host of bitchy congressional remarks
about how BC was trying to "distract" the country from the most
pressing issue facing the nation- a blow job in the oval office and a
married man's initial denial when accused of an extra-marital sexual
encounter.

There must be dozens of sites where this subject is appropriate, and
where you could refresh your memory.

I've seen no cut and pastes here from any Bush supporter. Have you?

Harry posted his usual anti-Bush rhetoric and his post got what it
deserved. Where is the 'pro-Bush stuff to which you refer?- Hide quoted text -

I didn't say the pro-bush crowd *had* posted, only that posts like
Harry's "issue free license" to do so.

Oh.

There's more to the Clinton story than a simple blowjob and lying about it.
The issue that is not often discussed is this:

Before the current policy of "don't ask, don't tell", homosexuality in the
military was cause for immediate discharge. The main reason was the
potential of those with access to classified material being blackmailed by
various operatives to get information. In those days, homosexuality was not
accepted in society like it is today and those of the persuasion kept it in
the "closet" to avoid public and even family humiliation. Those of us that
were in the military in the 60's remember the lectures well.

Clinton had a lot of world credibility to lose by having an affair with a 21
year old political intern. As a married man and as POTUS he was expected to
live up to a generally accepted standard of conduct as it existed then.
Having an affair with the wrong person could have easily made him vulnerable
to blackmail. According to Lewinsky, it was not a one-time event. She
claimed that there were at least 14 "meetings" and an exchange of gifts,
etc.

It's easy to downplay the nature of his conduct now, but at the time it was
potentially serious.

Interesting, Results 1 - 10 of about 1,380,000 for bush adultery. (0.20
seconds), but I guess that really isn't fair, as Bush could mean this
President, or the "Family Values" one.

They come in different sizes?

All I will say is that in an active seaway no amount of LOA will save
a clumsy helmsman. Speaking of boats, of course.

Chuck, point taken. I'll avoid being drawn into political discussions in
this forum going forward.

Of course we are talking boats. As far as boats, my wife says the most
important thing is the width. I think she says "width does the trick",
she is probably talking about the ability to move furniture in the salon.

Down,
It is hard, especially when they jiggle the bait just right.
