On the recordMarch 19, 1999
I don't know. You know, one of my favorite jokes--you know that story about the guy that's walking along the Grand Canyon? And he falls off, and he's falling hundreds of feet to certain death, and he reaches out--he sees a little twig on the side of the canyon, and he grabs it. He takes a deep breath, and then all of a sudden he sees the roots of the twig start to come loose. And he looks up in the sky and he said, ``Lord, why me? Why me? I pay my taxes. I go to work every day. Why me?'' And this thunderous voice says, ``Son, there's just something about you I don't like.'' [Laughter] Who knows? Let me say this. Let me give you a serious answer. Whatever happens, I have been very blessed in my life. Most of us leave this life further ahead than we would be if all we got was justice. Most of us get a fair share of mercy, too. And I wouldn't trade anything for having had the opportunity to be President and do the work I've done. So I feel very good about all that. Sam [Sam Donaldson, ABC News]. Juanita Broaddrick
