I feel a responsibility to a younger version of me, one that back in 1996 would be shocked and depressed about Oasis finally splitting up. But sadly, I no longer have it in me.

So I've failed myself. But I will point out that he was absolutely right about Kenickie.A Summary of Republican/Democratic Negotiating Techniques

Why? For the simple reason that the nominees were qualified, and it would have been petty, and partisan, and disingenuous to insist otherwise. Those nominees represented the considered judgment of the president of the United States. And under our Constitution, it is the president's call to make."John McCain, 2008.
