Seems to me that the *Soviets* caused that one. And Eisenhower put our
Jupiter missiles in Turkey, which Kennedy quietly removed in a
quid-pro-quo for the Rooskies taking their hardware out of Cuba.

Iran/Contra (Reagan - R). By "debacle" do you mean the failed military
rescue attempt, or the loss of the embassy, or the fall of the Shah?

Now, this Monica business was just fun, admit it. How about Rep.
Gingrich's loss of his seat to an *affair* he was engaging in as he was
trying to pillory our man Bill? I had a real Sam-Kinnisonian fit over
that one.

Nixon. Reagan. Rhenquist.
