I'd wager that's the rule rather than the exception, particularly for that generation. 2) I can at least respect his reasoning (trying to be a proper role model) for dodging any potential questions. 3) Beats a stupid and weasely answer like "I didn't inhale".

He remains an honest, noble man, unlike Slick Willie. Names can be great. The top urologist in Toledo (everyone seems to end up at this guys office for a vascectomy)... his name is actually Dr. Richard Tapper. I didn't believe it when I first moved here but it's true.

I was told that it was a silly topic and may provoke partisan responses. Wonder what the difference is here. Just curious. Actually I have no probelm with the thread, I think that it is both thoughtful and interesting. My opinion is that there is room for this and many other similar style threads. I just wish that the consistancy that we expect, could actually be realized. Everyone please have a peachy keen day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Funny how national reaction to this story is just completely apathetic. Having an elected official smoke a joint or blow a line when they were younger means nothing to most anyone these days, primarily because the only reason people care is if they're being lied to about it or treated like a gradeschool student (see: I didn't inhale). The president isn't walking in and out of rehab, blown out of his mind like Matthew Perry or Charlie Sheen. He had some fun in college.Same with Clinton. Same with probably 75% of your elected officials. BFD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I wasn't even thinking about the president with my comment - well I lumped him in with the rest I guess. My thought behind the "running america" comment was more about the corporate world - not just the political world. Some drink, some do coke - we all have our vices. Some are morally more acceptable then others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
