Goodbye Mount McKinley. Hello Mount Denali

[Pete from Boston]

Back on topic, have any members of the Csolgosz family weighed in on the renaming?

..which, in the end, went kaput.  The whole effort was a waste.

Because Trent Lott didn't have the gonads to proceed with a full-fledged trial, didn't allow introduction of evidence or sworn testimony, etc. The blue dress that Monica Lewinsky saved was factual proof that Clinton lied when he said under oath that he'd never had sex with a subordinate.

...because Trent Lott knew it was a waste.  Dear heavens, spending all that money because he lied about his sex life.  Perjury doesn't carry the strongest of sentences and would have been much ado and money spent without much to show for it in the end (e.g., Clinton would get a slapped wrist, worst case scenario).

At least we don't have to worry about that now.

What's fun is that I'd bet Clinton's approval numbers are still higher than any other former presidents'.

I bet Reagan got twice the blowjobs Clinton ever got. And most of them were from males.

That would still be circumstantial. Is it proof beyond a reasonable doubt that he lied? The fact that there was an argument over the definition of sex (and the definition of "is") indicates to me that it is not.

How in the name of Denali is this thread not locked yet??

[Rothman]

In Denali We Trust?

[kkt]

Maybe we should rename Denali Mt. Clinton?

Nah, rename it Denial Mount Lint.

"Goodbye Mount McKinley?!?" - Does this mean that we can expect Elton John to do yet another bastardization revision of Candle in the Wind?

I was thinking a new rendition of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road as the Elton John song when you said that.

I really think "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" is a much better potential adaptation.

Ok, it's a good topic to discuss, but the political bull is getting out of hand.  Locked.
