Why not? Richard Nixon wasn't bad at it himself.

No, when it comes to a liar they probably prefer to have the real
thing to his pale Republican copy. A good choice actually.
The good news is that Dole will lose. The bad news, Clinton wins.

Nah, most people don't buy the Democrat lies or the Republican lies--they
just vote for which they consider to be the lesser of the two evils.
BTW, the expression is "bald-faced lies."

Are you talking about the Contract with America
(http://www.house.gov/CONTRACT.html)? If so, you're wrong, as usual.
Take a look at the list.

Exactly!
But, I thought the American people - certainly the liberal media and
academia - had come to the conclusion that Nixon fell below the minimum
standards required for the Presidency. He was certainly not the subject
of impeachment hearings because the economy wasn't good enough.
It would appear, however, that these standards only apply to Republicans.
The standard for Democrats is much lower.
To some extent, this is to be expected. But it is a scathing indictment
of the American people that they are about to reelect the most venal,
immoral, hypocritical, lying scumbag ever to occupy the White House (and
that probably includes all those overnight visitors who got to spend the
night in the Lincoln Room in exchange for a few hundred grand in campaign
contributions).

"You know the President is an unusually good liar, unusually good."
Sen. Bob Kerrey (D-NE), in Esquire Magazine, January 1996, later explaining,
"It was not an angry comment. It was actually intended as an off-handed
compliment." - Omaha World Herald, 2/5/96

The real bad news - the country, and especially our children, lose.
Richard Nixon: "I am not a crook."
Bill Clinton: "I am a crook, but so what?"
Bill Clinton: the more evil of two lessers - by far.

When you find yourself in total disagreement with those around you
it is wise to consider that you MIGHT be wrong. You might even
be insane. The reality is, FOUR MORE YEARS!! Deal with it.

I checked out most of the web pages referenced by Mr. Lippard. If indeed all
those bills did come before Congress then I'd conclude the Contract with
America was fulfilled in it's entirety and the '94 freshman class really
did what they said they would.

Many, if not most, were defeated. We have no balanced budget amendment,
for instance.

The Contract With America did not, anywhere, say that they guaranteed
those items would pass. They guaranteed that they would bring those
things up for a vote.
With a guy like Clinton holding the veto pen, the Repubs knew and
admitted that they could not guarantee passage.
I now directly quote from the contract web page:
Thereafter, within the first 100 days of the 104th Congress, we shall
bring to the House Floor the following bills, each to be given full
and open debate, each to be given a clear and fair vote and each to
be immediately available this day for public inspection and scrutiny.
