The disclosure of several new heretofore secret Justice Department memos [New York Times editorial] shows the lengths to which Janet Reno went to protect Al Gore and other senior administration officials from a thorough-going independent inquiry into alleged campaign finance improprieties. And all the time you watched the administration fretting about the impeachment inquiry, its senior members were probably laughing up their sleeve that that’s all the country was agonizing over. And now the only choice you have beyond Dubya is their poster boy?? (It’s getting to that quadrennial point where I begin to toy with the idea of emigrating again…but where?)
