His Ex -wife.
Clinton must be guilty of misuse of power. after all if you don't have it others mustn't use it.

Leave the dude alone, he did well for your economy and for the citizens as a whole. His approval rating on entering office was 58 and upon leaving 65. It was a lot higher in between.

Bill did his job and did it well, concentrate on your new prez and keep him in line. If you don't understand the vagaries of power then you should't be outraged by what is not understood.

oh please. clinton's done nothing for the last 8 years except look out for himself and his own self-interests. it's pretty apparent that clinton sold a pardon, plain and simple. there are no "vagaries of power" to consider here.

Right or left (there are centres) makes not a whit of diff.

>>So troy at what point can trust be given.?<<

well, i'm not sure how to answer that. since power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely, then i would say that they can never be trusted and should be given as little power as possible.
