Don't know about Reagan, but with Clinton there was a sitting governor
convicted and a sitting deputy Attorney General. That's TWO at least. Oh,
yeah, McDougal (now dead). That's THREE.

Nowdays, everybody's got to be squeaky clean. A fellow wrote an opinion
piece for the Wall Street Journal recently in which he complained of his
FIFTH FBI full background check. To illustrate the silliness, he related one
part of the questioning:

FBI: "Have you every had contact with foreign nationals?"
Respondent: "Yes."
FBI: "We'll need the names and dates of these contacts."
Respondent: "That will be next to impossible."
FBI: "Why is that?"
Respondent: "As the United States Representative to the United Nations, I
talked to hundreds of foreign nationals every day."
FBI: "Moving on..."

The "Respondent" was Vernon Walters.
