In the last few days since the release of Kenneth Starr's report to Congress, President Bill Clinton and his group of lawyers have begun one of the most unique counter-offensive strikes in the history of political warfare. His strategy is to apologize to just about everybody in America and hope they will forgive and forget everything he has done.
During the past week, Clinton apologized six times, including apologies to the Florida Democratic Party, Senate Democrats and members of his cabinet.
It is unclear if his apologies are having any influence on them.
There is no doubt that many people are going to forgive him, but their forgiveness will not automatically mean he will be off the hook.
After this scandal, no matter what the results, it will be hard for Americans to ever think of Clinton without thinking sex, lies and apologies.
Although Clinton did have many positives in his six years as president, it seems very unlikely Americans will give him the respect a president of the United States deserves.
America should respect Clinton for going on national television and admitting to the world that he has sinned, but now that we know, he should quit apologizing and accept whatever punishment he receives.
