While I've been dealing with some local issues, referring to a need for "Adult Supervision", I'm beginning to think we need the same in Washington.

Acid Test - Memories of Bill Clinton's Impeachment, as Obama's Staff Faces Scandal in Illinois - NYTimes.com
"Indeed, except for brief interludes, Washington in the last decade has been governed by a climate of anger and animosity, a modern-day tribalism pitting faction against faction that some trace to the days of the impeachment.

“It definitely poisoned the well on both sides,” said Representative Peter T. King of New York, one of the few Republicans to vote against impeachment. “Without getting into the merits of anything, there’s no doubt there were Democrats waiting from the day George Bush took office to even the score for Bill Clinton. And Republicans are the same today with Barack Obama and the Rod Blagojevich scandal.”"
