No. I don't read any of that kind of tripe. Who really cares what some ex-politician has to say? Those people are professional liars -- why would you pay to read their lies about their lies?

What am I looking forward to is Charles Adams' book about European opinions of the Civil War which he's supposedly putting the finishing touches on now. According to DiLorenzo, it's probably going to be like a greatly revised version of The Glittering Illusion by Sheldon Vanauken. Adams, incidently, writes a lot about taxation, Colin, with such titles as For Good and Evil: The Impact of Taxes on the Course of Civilization and Those Dirty Rotten Taxes: The Tax Revolts That Built America. (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/se...183223-6184728)

I haven't read Adams. I'll pick something up.

As far as "professional liars", everyone has their slant - even historians. But Clinton can say whatever he wants and then other people involved can contradict what he says - whether now or in 20 or even 50 years. I think if one is interested in the reasoning behind a certain policy, for example, it is good to read what the person who ordered it's execution has to say about it to include in the big picture. Then over time private letters, etc. will be added to the mix and a fuller picture will emerge. What's most interesting is when a politician/policy maker says something in public that is later contradicted by their personal writings.

I've only read pamphlet type excerpts from his Impact of Taxes book in one of my econ classes back in the day. It was good stuff, but not so good that I wanted to go out and buy the rest of the book

I'm interested... but I'll let you read it first.

I know I go on about Trudeau (and for good reason), but his memoirs are some of the best political and personal writings I've ever read.

I have already forgotten what major things Clinton did? Actual I usual forget about what most polticians did, so its always good to have a book ready on the subject... Ex. these are the quotes I got, when I played "say the first quote, which is on your mind, when I name the president":

Ronald Reagan - "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"
George Bush - "Read my lips...no new taxes!"
Bill Clinton - "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky"

and George W Bush... he still have time left to say the most memorable quote ever

So I guess Bill Clinton is standing out in my mind as some kind of lying perv... he would have made big bucks in the adult industry

Both houses were Republican in his second his term which definitely slowed his agenda. He signed many international trade agreements, managed the most balanced budget in a long time, reformed welfare and lead the NATO attack on Kosovo.

Too bad we were on the wrong side of that one.

The Muslims started the conflict with a separatist movement, like they do everywhere else.
