This past Sunday I spent about eight (8) hours trolling the mall in Muskogee, OK (song). I say "trolling" but I definitely was without any specific prey, only to kill eight hours. So, I spent a good amount of time in a Waldenbooks. Waldenbooks just pales in comparison to Barnes and Noble. The stores remind me more of the shops at an airport than a legitimate bookstore. There's no atmosphere. I digress.
Anyway, there's a whole section of books, calendars and such related to the countdown until Bush is out of office and his political circus. I recall that during the last half of Clinton's second term there was lots of scandal and hub bub about his personal life. But, what I don't remember is any book or much political commentary about how he may or may not have caused any domestic or global turmoil, awakening or revival.
So, refresh my memory. But, if we step outside and look at this from a historical perspective, there is little value to be salvaged from this presidential tenure.
