The old campaigner still has it

Okay, I won't be looking for former President Bill Clinton on Comedy Central any time soon, but he's got a point here. And at least he doesn't screw up the joke (Kerry, are you listening?).

Slick Willie still has it, and when I look at him and look back on his eight years in the White House, those years look inviting compared to the mess we are in now.

Hmmm... sex in the oval office on one hand... almost 2,900 dead Americans for a lie in Iraq on the other. Pretty easy decision, in my mind.

Okay, I know that's a gross oversimplification, because it's impossible to look back on the 1990s now without considering 9-11, which changed everything. Clinton was far from a perfect president, but he gets no press for any of the good things he did as president, including many terrorist attacks that were foiled because his administration was obsessed with terror.

Like Clinton said on the now infamous Chris Wallace interview - "We failed [to get bin Laden], but at least we tried."

Sage words from a man who would be into his fourth term, were it not for the 22nd Amendment.
