In response to the venerable writer George F. Will's article (Jan. 11), that Bill Clinton was "the worst person ever to have been president" — I believe it is one of the best commentaries on this besmirched presidency.
As part of his multifaceted analysis of the outgoing Clinton, Mr. Will states, "But other than soiling the office, he was a remarkably inconsequential president, like a person who walks across a field of snow and leaves no footprints."
Interestingly, Richard A. Posner, chief judge of the 7th Circuit, is quoted as stating that Clinton's illegalities "were felonious, numerous and nontechnical" and "constituted a kind of guerrilla warfare against the third branch of the federal government, the federal court system."
So, where is the logic of this festering idea to pardon Clinton for his illegalities while everyone else stands accountable and answerable for lawbreaking? To declare "he is the worst person ever to have been president" is telling it like it is.
