3. Clinton's friendliness
is unimaginably naive even for a clubbish political circle. Honestly having a heart to heart with Gingrich only paid off when Gingrich dared to bitch slap him with their determination to get him "because we can."

He learned something there he later applied to his further muddled emotional lack of judgment in the impeachment scandal. He dared risk everything for a fling "because he could".

It is a fatal but kindly meant judgment flaw that both makes Clinton belovedly humane and doofishly dangerous up against the suited villains of the world.

Maybe the humane approach will, Gandhi-like, triumph and confound the evil bent of others, but unfortunately it is fog of mellow judgment not a spiritual clarity at work.

The chummy sanctity of power and money for most of us is rapidly losing its false luster, but not in the sated circles of media worshiped Olympus. Their is no morality or leadership their. Clinton may be an awesome innocent in Hell but thankfully Bush Jr. is forcing clarity the opposite way of both elder predecessors.
