4. "always putting people first"
"Text of farewell address

The text of US President Bill Clinton's televised farewell speech to the nation.

(Snip)

You, the American people, have made our passage into the global information age an era of great American renewal.

In all the work I have done as president, every decision I have made, every executive action I have taken, every bill I have proposed and signed, I've tried to give all Americans the tools and conditions to build the future of our dreams, in a good society, with a strong economy, a cleaner environment, and a freer, safer, more prosperous world.

I have steered my course by our enduring values. Opportunity for all. Responsibility from all. A community of all Americans.

I have sought to give America a new kind of government, smaller, more modern, more effective, full of ideas and policies appropriate to this new time, always putting people first, always focusing on the future."

7. I honestly miss him, I really do
Edited on Sat May-08-04 04:38 PM by Moonbeam_Starlight
I even considered writing him a letter telling him so.

When he took office in 92, he signed the Family Leave and Medical Act, which bush I refused to do (why I never figured out). It allowed me to stay home an extra two weeks (unpaid) when my daughter was born in 94 (on top of the paid time I got). I was thankful for that, and wrote him to tell him so.

There are so many things I miss. The government not being awash in red ink, not being in a recession from hell, not being involved in an immoral horrible war overseas.

I know they're all politicians, but I at least felt I could trust him not to screw us all up the ass like bush has.

Speaking of bush, someone give that man a blow job, please? Pickles? Come on, wifely duty and all that? (Kidding!!)

Edited to add I never even voted for him. I voted Perot in 92 (I know, I know) and I moved and missed the registration deadline in 96, but was going to vote for him then. I was in college in Jan 93 at his inauguration and I taped it on my cheap VCR. I still have the tape, with Maya Angelou reading her poem. It made me cry. Funny thing is, I had no idea how good Clinton was until we got Chucklenuts Jr.

(big blustery sigh)
