Former President Clinton is presently undergoing quadruple bypass surgery in a New York hospital. While this is a standard procedure, it is not necessarily the simplest, nor the most risk free operation one can have. Rightly, get well wishes have poured in from across the globe, and this column expresses its sincere desire that Mr. Clinton will be restored to health as soon as possible.
Some conservatives may be outraged by this extension of goodwill. After all, this amity has already been proven to be unrequited; if Democrat Underground is anything to go by, some on the left raised their glasses in celebration when Ronald Reagan died, issuing pithy statements such as may you rot in hell you sorry evil creep! Some on that forum even expressed a desire for President Reagan to be put on a slowly turning spit after his supposed arrival in perdition.
However, just as the liberals should be grateful that Ronald Reagan destroyed the Soviet Union whether they liked it or not, similarly, conservatives have many reasons to thank Mr. Clinton and wish him well. Perversely, Mr. Clinton has helped to inspire shifts in American politics and media which have been to the benefit of all.

I wish the Slickster a speedy and complete recovery; it would be a shame if he weren't around to watch his his party's slide to destruction.
I would like to add my name to the list of well-wishers for Mr. Clinton's speedy & total recovery. |
I certainly want him around to see his wife humiliated in 2008.
Bill Clinton has been a big influence in my life and I too wish him a full and speedy recovery from his alleged heart surgery.
I said a prayer for ole BJ's ticker.
Totally inappropriate and over the top comment on your part.
BJ...appropriate initials for the old boy, eh? ;-)
Yeah hehehehe
This is, in a way, much harsher than simply wishing him to drop dead....
Quite true!
Get well soon Billy boy!
