Out of Luck

I don't know if this is for real but former US President Clinton apparently has a blog. A pretty good one at that (in the sense that it appears to be a conversation and not written by some marketing droid). Again, I don't know if this is for real and if so, I don't know if he actually writes the posts. But whomever is doing it is showing a lot of insight into who President Clinton is/was/may become.

Having said that, I'm not sure I want to hear much of what former President Clinton has to say. It is difficult for me to separate his humanity and his public self as President. I still have so much disappointment over what he did in office and how, in no small part, it paved the way for who we have now. I believe, had he resigned, Gore would be President today.

I guess I shouldn't judge President Clinton harshly as I've never had to face the challenges he has. But he seems to be trying to get me to feel sorry for him. He seems to be saying how he is so misunderstood and lonely.

I don't know. People say we hate in others that which we hate in ourselves. Perhaps I see too much of myself in him? Judge him for yourself.
