[lbo-talk] rewriting history

[andie nachgeborenen]

Yeah, I was writing a friend that Hitych hated Clinton
for all the wrong reasons (lying) and not the right
ones (selling out, being Reagan-Lite), except he looks
pretty good these days, and for that matter _Reagan_
looks pretty good these days. Carter looks like the
Second Coming and Nixon like positive a commie. Four
More Years!  Don't get me started on LBJ.

The scary part is, does this mean that in 25-30 years
we'll look back at W and say, them was the good old
days? Fortunately for me by that point I'll be in the
neighborhood of being almost too old to care for my
own sake, if I'm still here.
