Ok, you can dismiss me as just another dumb 21yr old college student, but not until you hear me out... [After reading the rest:] dismissed!! TELLING THE TRUTH: Hey look, I know that all politicians bend or color the truth a little sometimes, but Clinton really goes to extremes. Hey, I don't care if I do not approve of something in someones' past (like draft dodging or pot smoking), but AT LEAST tell me the truth THE FIRST TIME when asked about such things. And something I do not approve of - Demonstrating against one's country in another land. A man of such poor values has no business in MY white house(yes, MY - I pay taxes). Clinton, when asked about pot smoking on the MTV special said if he could go back he would have inhaled. Do we need a man in the white house who makes light of illegal drug use? So let me see if I understand you: if Clinton had inhaled and said so, it would have been (1) ok because that would have sounded like the truth and (2) bad because the truth would have been illegal. I've got a question for you: What can Clinton do or say to satisfy you about the pot smoking issue? I'll bet that *nothing* can satisfy you. So why attack him for not doing the impossible? And as far as demonstrating against one's country inside or outside the US is concerned, I'm proud to live in a country where we are FREE enough to do just such things. And I'm proud that we have Americans who are courageous enough to exercise their freedoms before your kind can take them away. TAXES: Why should the the rich get more taxes, come to think of it, why should anyone get more taxes? "Tax and Spend" - that's Clinton (damn demo-rat). You, I suppose, prefer Reagan/Bush "Borrow from the future and spend now"? I'm old enough to remember when your kind believed in balanced budgets and pay-as-you-go. What happened? HEALTH CARE: I have the answer - Make all avenues of employment insure their workers by law. BINGO, we all have insurance. Whatever happend to "if you dont work you dont eat" - sounds like a good plan to me (neglect the disabled of course, that is understood). What we do not need is socialized medicine. I mean let me ask you, have you been to a hospital overseas? - I have been to several and they suck. It is almost like a bus station, or any other public, dirty, hobo-hangout. You have an "answer"? That's an "answer"? I have a couple of American friends who bought land near Chapel Hill intending to live there when they retired from their jobs in Canada. Then the reality of our medical system sank in and they realized that they had to stay in Canada. Fortunatly for them, because one had a heart attack recently. [More junk deleted] Nuff Said...
