Obama was in office when global economics caused the price of crude oil to go down, so some simpletons believe that "he lowered gas prices." Oddly enough, it's usually the same people who are pleased with lower gas prices who think there should be a carbon tax on fossil fuels to deter their use to "solve global warming."

Clinton was in office when the Internet first bloomed and there was a huge bump to the GDP thanks to companies replacing old equipment and software to deal with the Y2K issue. The Roth IRA was introduced, so many people converted their regular IRAs, paying taxes upfront to avoid taxes later. But Clinton somehow gets "credit" for increasing tax receipts by virtue of being in the White House when those things occurred, which weren't of his making.

Lemme guess...the anti-gun bit was sandwiched between him doing impressions of Trump and Saying things that are funny to Trump-haters but stupid to,the average person.

Working a few a few decades in a manufacturing environment, this kind of thing happened regularly. Our saying is, "foresight is better than no sight." Wear your damn safety glasses (or in some cases, face shields).

I love parenting advice from those who don't have children. They're the real experts!

As a dad, my first thought was along these lines.

He (or she) didn't talk shit about it...just that the content of the music relieves the guilt of downloading it without paying.

And you immediately disputed that, proving his (or her) point.

Now the media has little to gain by portraying him as stupid or focusing on the foibles everyone has....forgetting the name of someone you were introduced to along with another dozen people, bumping into a glass door because it's the "pull" side and not the "push." You can find all sorts of the same thing about the president right before and right after Bush, but the press and TV didn't dwell on those things. Remember when Obama didn't know how to pronounce Marine Crops, and said Marine corpse?

It really wasn't "legal." The perpetrators were tried for Crimes Against Humanity after the war.

Also, as long as we're making a list, we can add abortion and affirmative action to the list of legal things.

Nixon wasn't "forced" In that the law required him to resign, but he was forced to,resign because the media circus made his presidency ineffective. There was also the possibility of being impeached, so he resigned due to the logical consequences...so, "forced" is not wrong.

Also, only two US Presidents have ever been impeached. Bill Clinton was one, so not only was he nearly the"first husband," but was nearly a very disgraced first spouse. His impeachment cost him his license to practice law, but with all those organizations throwing money at the Clinton Foundation for Bill to speak, he didn't really need to practice law anyway. Also, he pardoned billionaire tax cheat Marc Rich just before leaving office in January of 2001, and coincidentally, Marc Rich donated a half million to Hillary's senate campaign and another many hundreds of thousands to Bill's presidential library fund. So the Clintons weren't broke due to the impeachment.
