Finest moment? Triumph?

So Jimmy Carter's finest moment was what in retrospect amounted to nothing better than a political photo op.

Bill Clinton enjoyed what amounted to a Scandanavian get-together to celebrate the soon-to-be-launched infitada.

Ronald Regan losing those marines at the Beirut airport -- pretty stupid. It was the exact same thing as the U.S.S. Cole, only larger and came first.

What did we learn?
