Yes, there is a huge difference. A different party's ox is being gored. By the way, I notice Bush is addressing the complaints people have, instead of adopting the stonewalling policy so prevalent with Clinton, and so frequently carried out by Janet Reno.

Of COURSE it is an editorial. I'm not sure how anyone could think differently, and I don't play "dueling Googles." It stifles intelligent debate, especially when one or more parties overdoes it.
