THE BILL CLINTON LEGACY
Posted Wednesday morning.
When one has had as many unsavory connections as Bill Clinton, It is difficult to judge which association, connection or enterprise is the most worthy of relegating him to the dumpster of shame.
Should it be his impeachment, him coverups, his forcing his attention on various women, his issuance of numerous pardons, the secreting of personal FBI files, his suspect fundraising, his lackidaisical approach to national security, or another of his real or imagined shortcomings?
Considering the truly negative effect it is having on a major portion of the population and the likewise negative effect it has had on the U.S. dollar, Linden believes his legacy should be tied to his 1995 veto of the bill to authorize drilling in Anwar. If the price of the pump is adversely affecting your lifestyle, you may wish to re-evaluate your opinion of Bill. There is still time for some of his failures to overshadow this particular shortcoming. While you are at it, there are several members of congress who strongly support making your life more difficult. You may wish to actively oppose them.

LINDEN'S LIFE
On Tuesday, after posting blog, met Bob and Ron for coffee and went on to play nine holes of golf: Poorly but not as bad as last week. Made one par and hit three trees dead on. Two were from close enough range that the ball came close to hitting poor old Linden as it rebounded. Had a surprise visit from Madonna and Judy: Madonna is back from Arizona to see her twin five week old grandbabies. "Million Dollar Baby" is a great, sad movie about female boxers that Brian brought me when he came. It brought back equally sad thoughts of my inauspicious short boxing effort. My high school had a boxing team and I, as a flyweight (112 pounds) sophomore tried out for the team. I won my first two or three elimination matches and started thinking I was pretty tough. Then, I just got my brains beat out. It has been over 60 years and I don't believe old Linden has put the gloves on since. This was not the only time ability was overestimated!
