Contrast, if you will, the president’s stubborn refusal to apologize for his own sins with his enthusiasm for apologizing for America’s alleged sins. Not since the holy Roman emperor spent days in the snows at Canosa, begging for the pope’s absolution, has a national leader groveled like Bill Clinton in his first 48 hours in Africa…

What is it about Bill Clinton that he is ever so expansive in confessing America’s sins but so reticent to confess his own?

Unbridled capitalism is an awesome force that creates new factories, wealth and opportunities that go first to society’s risk takers and holders of capital. But unbridled capitalism is also an awesome destructive force…

Under Jimmy Carter, unemployment hit 7 percent, inflation 13 percent and interest rates 21 percent, setting the stage for the Reagan Revolution. And when Reagan’s tax cuts took hold, the Eagle soared as it had not done in peacetime since the Roaring ’20s.

To see how rapidly de-industrialization is taking place, take a look at the aging queen of American industries: automobiles. From 1995 through 1997, the United States had a trade deficit in autos and auto parts with Japan of $95 billion, with Canada of $33 billion, with Sweden and Britain of $10 billion, and with Mexico of $41 billion. Mexico today exports more cars to the United States than the U.S. exports to the world! Let’s hear it for NAFTA…

Republicans will have to deal with impeachment because the Lewinsky affair has moved beyond charges of moral misbehavior to the realm of high crimes and misdemeanors. Ken Starr is building a case that the president, through serial perjury, violated his oath to see that the laws of the land were faithfully executed…

Republicans on Capitol Hill have been praying that the cup of impeachment would pass away; now they may have to drink from it.

This is risky business, and the “reforms” the IMF is imposing had better work. If they fail, and collapse follows, the United States is the villain at whom every Asian demagogue will point the finger — for the IMF is seen in Asia as an agent of U.S. economic imperialism…

The Clintonites are playing a dangerous game in Indonesia and courting an Asian nationalist backlash against America.
After phoning President Suharto repeatedly to demand he give up his cherished idea of a currency board to stabilize the rupiah, Bill Clinton sent Walter Mondale to read him the riot act. The International Monetary Fund then made the old general an offer he could not refuse: It told him his $40 billion bailout depended on his capitulation.

Have we forgotten the disaster of the century at Versailles? After Berlin had agreed to an armistice based on Woodrow Wilson’s 14 Points, the allies divided and dismembered Germany, placing millions of enraged Germans under foreign rule. Humiliated, Berlin turned east to conspire with V.I. Lenin. Overturning Versailles became the most popular plank of the Nazis’ platform. The first seeds of the Hitler-Stalin pact were sown in the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles…

Why would about 91,000 of the 91,235 fans in the Coliseum on Sunday night act as though they hated the United States? Why would U.S. citizens and residents blow horns and boo loudly enough to drown out the U.S. national anthem? Why would those who attend U.S. schools and receive U.S. medical care feel it necessary to pelt any U.S. player running near the stands with water and beer?…

What took place in the L.A. Coliseum was a two-hour orgy of anti-Americanism, an explosion of hatred against the United States.

Can one imagine the reaction in Washington in 1974 if it were revealed that Nixon’s lawyer, Jim St. Clair, had hired detectives to investigate Leon Jaworksi’s staff, that they had found out one was homosexual, and that Nixon’s men had “outed” him?…Every newspaper would have exploded with cries for St. Clair’s ouster. Network anchors would have wept openly, “The Nixon White House sank to new depths today.” Yet when Starr simply called Sidney Blumenthal, alleged dirt dispenser, before the grand jury, the media beatified Sidney as a First Amendment martyr…
