For this alone Slick Willie should have been impeached and REMOVED from office. He failed utterly in a fundamental duty of the POTUS.

They were probably left in a cigar box while Hillary’s husband was otherwise occupied.

[Note: I do not believe this story is true. I assume that the codes would be held by another person for Slick Willie and inventoried far more often than every few months. As soon as they were “missing” from an inventory, I assume that the codes would have been replaced by a set of backup codes.]

Is this supposed to be satire? This story makes no sense. It is not the President’s job to carry the codes around, it is the aide’s job - in fact, the aide’s #1 responsibility is his/her personal possession of the codes. Defend with your life and all that. I assume these aides are rotated on something like 8 hour shifts, with the briefcase or “football” passed to the aide coming on duty at the proper time. Even if an aide somehow left the codes in a restroom just B4 he/she and the President got on a plane or something, and was afraid to report it, the next aide coming on duty would be like “WTF!” and all hell would break loose (esp. for the negligent agent!)

The author of an article on Bill Clinton would have to be named “Woody,” wouldn’t he?

Shame! It took 24 post before someone (you!) saw the obvious. This 'article', such that it is, is made up out of whole cloth. FAKE News!

I met Lt. Colonel Robert “Buzz” Patterson, years ago during a “Troops Across America Tour.”
He was promoting his book “Dereliction Of Duty”. A book about his time with the Clintons, he was Senior Military Aide to Clinton and carried the “football”.
Check this video out at about 5 minutes in.

I talked to him about Hillary also and he hated her. Said when you walked down a hallway if she was walking towards you, you had to advert your eyes away from her, that is if there was no doorway that you could back into to avoid contact with her eyes.
Bought his book, very interesting, It is on Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/Dereliction-Duty-Eyewitness-Compromised-Americas/dp/0895260603

Lt. Col. Robert “Buzz” Patterson exposes the terrifying, behind-the-scenes story of the years when the most irresponsible President in our history had his finger on the nuclear trigger. Dereliction of Duty is the inside story of the damage Bill Clinton did to the U.S. military and how he compromised our national security. From his laughable salutes, to his arrogant, anti-military staffers, the message came through loud and clear: the Clinton Administration had nothing but contempt for America’s men and women in uniform.

THE CLINTONS were a joke.

.......Clinton could lose track of a few cigars - but the codes? Maybe there is more to both stories than we still know.......

You got that right. Both Clintons are pathological liars......nothing they say can be believed.

BusinessInsider.com is actually a Domain name owned by Yahoo themselves, that’s why this is such an stunning article they put out. Yahoo, technically pointing out a Bill ClinTOON purposeful + horrible Mistake for the ages. Makes one wonder.

Yes, and I didn’t exactly see the post right after it was put up. Ah, well, maybe FReepers are just numbed by all that is going on. Or half are frozen by this dang cold spell!
