Missing Chapters of Clinton's "My Life" Exposed in New Book

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) May 10, 2005 -- Bill Clinton rose to the White House in part claiming to be a supporter of women"s rights, but a shocking new book claims to document a pattern of disturbing attacks against women that renders the former President"s claim hollow.

In "Their Lives: The Women Targeted by the Clinton Machine" (World Ahead Publishing, $25.95, ISBN 0974670138), author Candice E. Jackson documents how Bill Clinton used his political power to harass, intimidate, and terrorize women who got in his way. Whether it was assembling a smear team to attack a grief-stricken widow, threatening a reporter for her research into an Arkansas health care scandal, or hiring private investigators to bully an ex-flame's family members, Jackson says that Clinton showed no reluctance to go after any woman who inconvenienced his political career.

"This pattern of cold-blooded willingness by Clinton, his wife, and their inner circle to do anything to maintain power is clear," claims Jackson, an attorney and commentator who is also a recovering victim of domestic assault.

"Their Lives," which the author says fills in missing chapters from the 950 page "My Life," debuts in stores on May 31, 2005, the same day as the paperback version of Clinton's memoir. This book features an in-depth look at eight women who crossed paths with the so-called "Man from Hope" - seven former objects of desire as well as his wife, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Drawn from first-hand interviews and hundreds of sources, the book promises to counter Clinton's recent efforts to rehabilitate his legacy, although it does not focus on the morality of Clinton"s philandering but rather his willingness to wield his political power against his victims.

The book's publication has been hailed by the women whose story it profiles. Clinton sexual harassment accuser Kathleen Willey praises the book as "the most accurate portrayal...of the true nightmare Bill and Hillary put me through." Alleged Clinton rape victim Juanita Broaddrick says "Their Lives" is "a complete chronological account."

Commentator and author David Horowitz says, "This book connects the political to the personal in a way no one has done before. It is a must read for anyone interested in the history of our age."

"Bill and Hillary Clinton showed no reluctance to do whatever it took to get the job done," Jackson says in speaking of Washington's most powerful couple. "It's important to tell the stories of the women they targeted - Americans need to know this side of the Clintons before Hillary asks us to send her back to the Oval Office."

About the Author: Candice E. Jackson, a self-described liber-tarian feminist, is an attorney and commentator from Los Angeles. She formerly worked for Judicial Watch, a public watchdog group, and is a graduate of Stanford University and Pepperdine Law School. A recovering victim of domestic assault, her articles have appeared in Reason magazine, The Independent Review, and other publications.

Wonder how many booksellers are going to place these two books side by side in their displays! <>g<>

Then, we'll have to see how many Talking Heads Hosts invite authors or critics of both books on their shows to discuss the issues. It's obvious that the women involved in "Their Lives" have already given permission for their names and personal info to be used as fodder for these discussions. THere's a lot of vendetta here!

One of the obvious questions: will either of these books have a pro/con influence on Hillary's run for 2008?

The next book I'd like to see: a complete and accurate chronicle of the workings of the attack machine the Clintons established within the Executive Office Building at taxpayer expense.

Read Ann Coulter's book High Crimes and Misdemeanors.

br> It's hard to say it's Clinton's efforts, when GWB I has adopted him as a long lost son, and Jeb is calling him "bro." You can tell a lot about people from the friends they have.

I heard this author on a local radio talk show last week. This book sounds like a must read!

And Bill Clinton is still thought of by some as a champion of women's rights. Pathetic.

I've never read that. Thanks for the heads up. It's always seemed to me though, that to really find out what was going on, someone involved is going to have to tell all, which probably isn't going to happen until the Clintons are dead.

a shocking new book claims to document a pattern of disturbing attacks against women that renders the former President"s claim hollow.

This is news to who? Regardless, this book is a public service.

And I guess if Newsweek can go to press with a story based on one unnamed source, this author can go to press with a story based on "hundreds of sources." I think. Or maybe not, if the facts are damaging to a Democrat.

AlamoGirl has the most extensive and impressive documentation of criminal enterprises that were the Gubernatorial and Presidential Clinton Administrations!

And it continues to grow, like the Sandy Burlger shoplifting of classified documents!

...and Hillary's bagman Rosen on trial today!

Thank you, but I'm afraid I've missed it. Just got home from work :(
