WAS CLINTON PROTECTING HIS ANTI-SEMITIC WIFE OR HIS LEGACY WHEN HE LIED TO THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS?
But was the reason for this demeaning, moral-currency-debasing call to the left-wing tabloid simply the protection of his anti-Semitic wife?
Or was the real reason behind the call
hanks
to the missus's congenital compulsion to slur, we now know to a certainty that when bill clinton offered up his "ethnic joke" non sequitur, unsolicited, to the New York Daily News, he was lying.
the protection of his noxious legacy, the protection of "his" Nobel Peace Prize?

NEW YORK (July 18) - US President Bill Clinton vehemently denied that Hillary Rodham Clinton called a campaign aide in Arkansas a "f------g Jew bastard" after Clinton lost his 1974 congressional bid, and suggested that the allegation of an antisemitic slur was intended to harm his wife's standing among Jewish voters in New York.
Clinton: Hillary never made antisemitic slur
By Marilyn Henry
"I was there and [Hillary] never said it," the president told the New York Daily News. "In 29 years, my wife has never, ever uttered an ethnic or racial slur against anybody, ever. She's so straight on this, she squeaks."
The alleged incident is recounted in State of a Union: Inside the Complex Marriage of Bill and Hillary Clinton, written by Jerry Oppenheimer.... The slur allegedly was against Paul Fray, a Baptist with Jewish ancestry who managed the failed 1974 campaign, which was Clinton's first attempt at elected office.
"She might have called him a bastard," the president told the New York newspaper. "I wouldn't rule that out. She's never claimed that she was pure on profanity. But I've never heard her tell a joke with an ethnic connotation. She's so fanatic about it. She can't tell an ethnic joke - it's not in her."
Hillary Clinton since Friday has been denying the allegation as an "outrageous lie." The Clintons were not yet married at the time of the alleged incident.
Hillary Clinton is now the Democratic Senate candidate from New York, and she is in a dead heat with her rival, Rick Lazio, a Republican congressman from Long Island. A poll released last week by Quinnipiac University showed that Jewish voters back Clinton over Lazio 54 percent to 34%.
However, that is considered a poorer showing among Jewish voters than expected.
In his interview with the Daily News, the president, who is mediating talks at Camp David between Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian Authority leader Yasser Arafat, suggested that the allegations of an antisemitic slur are part of a plan to harm his....

As for pathologic self-interest, check out Richard Miniter's C-SPAN interview; the interview is contained in my latest virtual hillary movie (below), hillary talks:ON TERROR; it is absolutely devastating for the clintons. Miniter lays out in sickening detail the clintons' monumental failure to protect America.
Note in particular Madeleine Albright's shocking reason given at the time of the USS Cole attack why the clinton administration should not (and would not) respond militarily. It tell us everything we need to know about the clintons. It tell us why clinton redux is an absolutely suicidal notion.
Notwithstanding their cowardice, corruption, perfidy and essential stupidity, the clintons, according to Albright, made their decision not to go after the terrorists primarily to enhance their own legacy and power. The clintons calculated that such inaction would MAXIMIZE THEIR CHANCES TO RECEIVE THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE. No matter that that inaction would also maximize the terrorists' power, maximize America's danger.

Never the Twain Shall Meet
If the purpose of the call to the New York Daily News was single-minded -- to save the wife from certain defeat ("f---ing Jew bastard" was not going over well with the crucial Jewish vote), the purpose of the non sequitur was twofold -- (1) to recast the wife's vicious anti-Semitic slur as a (relatively) common, (relatively) benign "ethnic joke" and (2) to argue implicitly (if fallaciously) that if the wife is viscerally unable to tell an ethnic joke, then, according to clinton deconstructionist logic, it follows that the wife is viscerally unable to utter a vicious anti-Semitic slur. Casuistry in the service of clinton revisionism....
To those who say that the only thing this Gandhi "joke" confirms is that the wife is a poor comedian, that everybody ought to lighten up, I say, "wrong," (although it does confirm that the wife is no Jackie Mason, whose timing and judgment are impeccable, who manages to use ethnic humor with a certain benign benevolence and intelligence, Ed Sullivan notwithstanding).
The wife's ethnic "joke" in fact also confirms the following:

clintonism and the theology of contempt
by Mia T, November 2000 (sometime before the-first-Tuesday-after-the-first-Monday)
Let us hope that the rabbi's question was merely rhetorical. . . Let us hope that Rabbi Potasnik, and by extension, New York Jews, are not as credulous and obsequious and passive as they appear. . .
The simple answer to the rabbi's question is that the corrupt, self-serving, anti-Semitic, power-hungry harpy cannot be trusted.
Weren't we to never forget?
The Holocaust must remain, for Jew and Gentile alike, a constant reminder that mass credulity and obsequiousness and passivity are necessary for the demagogue to prevail.
To remember that six million Jews died in the Holocaust is to understand that centuries of anti-Semitic attitudes made this horror possible. We must ask ourselves what role our society played through the centuries that in any way contributed to the atmosphere that made such a genocide even thinkable.
Which brings me to the clintons and clintonism. . .
Senator Patrick Moynihan proffered one of the more incisive operant definitions of clintonism -- "defining deviancy down."
Defining deviancy down, indeed.
clintonism has made personal and public perversions, personal and public predations, not merely thinkable, not merely acceptable, but de rigueur. Watch us spin.
 
clintonism is the theology of contempt. Not only toward "f***ing Jew-bastards," or "dumb n***ers" or "extra-chromosome right-wingers" but toward any of us whose ideas are different from those of the clintons, Gore, and their acolytes.
So the real question to be answered is this:
What fair-minded, clear-thinking person would vote for hillary clinton or Al Gore?" |
The dysfunctional twofer
One has to wonder how much longer
the Democrats
--both the leaders of the party and the rank and file--
will tolerate the clintons,
their corruption,
their ineptitude,
their utter failure to protect America from terrorism,
their hatespin
(the ugly parroting of which is on democrat display today),
their party-decimating, country-decimating self-serving agenda,
their suffocating sense of entitlement,
their rube arrogance rooted in stupidity.
has plainly destroyed the Democrat Party;
it has arrogated the Democrat Party as its own
and is now remaking it in its ugly image.
How can there not be multiple coups in the works?
a senator to Henry Hyde
We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth,
and listen to the song of that siren
till she transforms us into beasts.
Is this the part of wise men,
engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty?
Are we disposed to be the number of those
who, having eyes, see not,
and having ears, hear not,
the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation?
For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost,
I am willing to know the whole truth;
to know the worst, and to provide for it.
Patrick Henry
Theodore Roethke
he understands all too well its most significant byproduct.
You can see it in his eyes.
they now dart back and forth reflexively,
searching futilely for approval,
attempting desperately to dispel his own certain knowledge
that his moral authority is gone. . .
forever.

If a white person was walking down the sidewalk, a black person had to get off the sidewalk so the white person could walk by. There were laws which prohibited Blacks to look at white people in the eye, and a black person could be sent to jail for "assault (reckless eyeballing)."
... Blacks who dared to challenge the rules were lynched by the thousands. Men and women were lynched. Lynchings were public events and white men, women and children went to watch Blacks being tortured and burned or hanged... Whites literally got away with murder for killing "uppity" Blacks.
Historical Backdrop to FREEDOM SONG
"When 'Queen Hillary' walks down the hall, you're not supposed to look at her. You're actually supposed to go into an office if there is one nearby. She doesn't want staff 'seeing' her. And I know she sure as hell doesn't want to meet you or any other staffer!" "You have to be kidding me!" John replied. "No, we got the word at a staff meeting. It's true. Look around. Do you see anyone else in the hall?" John looked around and sure enough people were starting to emerge, like prarie dogs peeking out of their burrows after a hawk had flown past.
Gary Aldrich, "Unlimited Access"
"I'm doing my chores for Hillary Clinton."
RON BROWN (ON HIS COMMERCE-DEPT CRIMES) TO NOLANDA HILL
"I will not go down alone."
RON BROWN (DAYS BEFORE HIS DEATH, ON HIS PLEA AGREEMENT WITH THE DOJ) TO BILL CLINTON
"It may be true that the law cannot make a man love me, but it can keep him from lynching me, and I think that's pretty important."
Ironically, the logic of this pronouncement by Martin Luther King would, in short order, be refuted by the fact of his own lynching. King's hope was misplaced and his reasoning was circular. The resultant rule of law relied on by King presumed an adherence to the rule of law in the first instance.
Adherence to the rule of law is not something normally associated with the clintons. Moreover, racial and ethnic disrespect, intimidation, exploitation and hate have always been a fundamental clinton tactic and the reflexive use the "N"-word and other racial and ethnic slurs, an essential element in the clinton lexicon. When the "first black president" and his wife ran Arkansas, the NAACP sued them for intimidating black voters at the polls.
But it is the clintons' refinement of the DNC drag and drop that is, arguably, the most insidious and repugnant application of their special brand of race-hate politics.
Drag and drop is a vote fraud technique by which unwitting, unwilling and/or illegal voters -- typically inner-city blacks and other minorities -- are literally dragged into the voting booth and told where to mark the "x" -- often multiple times per election. Drag and drop does not merely undermine and corrupt our system of government. Drag and drop is not merely illegal and exploitive.
Drag and drop is racist and dehumanizing.
Calculating a black man's worth to be 5/3 of a vote is no less racist, and arguably more so, than calculating his worth to be 3/5 of a white man; the latter is demeaning, but the former is dehumanizing.
In the senate race against Rick Lazio, it is widely understood that the drag and drop, (followed by the OLD ANGLE / NEW SQUARE / OVAL OFFICE SCHEME ) was clinton's vote fraud technique of choice used to overcome her low poll numbers, high personal negatives and consistent public failures.
"UPPITY" BLACKS AND THE CLINTONS
The Ron Brown death and the clinton legacy of lynching represent the pernicious endpoint, but the history of clinton race-hate politics is replete with a reflexive 'disposal' of 'uppity' blacks from to Marian Wright Edelman to Lani Guanier to Jocelyn Elders to Carl McCall...
To former Atlanta Mayor Maynard Jackson. The clintons' anointment of their man, Terry McAuliffe, to the chairmanship of the Democratic National Committee didn't merely force Maynard Jackson to the back of the bus. It pushed him off.
Two Degrees of Segregation: Al Sharpton, Donna Brazile, Carol Moseley Braun and the clintons
The announcement that intellectual and ethical lightweight, Carol Moseley Braun intends to run for president raises the same fundamental question that hillary clinton's looming presence does: "What the hell is this moribund loser doing in the political arena, anyway?"
In order to better understand the easy entry of Moseley Braun into democrat field, clinton-clinton precedent (president!) and the field's increasingly circus-like quality notwithstanding, one must consider the precipitating acts of Al Sharpton and Donna Brazile.
The Al Sharpton candidacy, by definition, disturbed both the clinton calculus and literati sensibilities, inspiring an immediate if ineffectual Tawana-Brawley deathblow attempt by leftist media. Sharpton's response was swift and sure. He warned that the next time the media asked him about Tawana Brawley, he would invoke the clinton scandals and the media's apparent lack of interest in same when questioning hillary clinton. (Surely the clintons' rapes and other predations would trump this quaint little hoax...)
Sharpton's Harlem office effectively burned to the ground the next day--an accident they say--but he was not deterred. The media, however, apparently were; they quickly buried Tawana Brawley beside Juanita Broaddrick, somewhere in that dark recess of expediency called access journalism.
If the clintons wanted Sharpton out because of the sheer embarrassment of him before his salvo, they now would be satisfied with no less than Sharpton's head. Donna Brazile was to neutralize (decolorize?) Sharpton by creating black favorite son candidates in every state of the union. It seems that Brazile ultimately thought the better of it, warning that dem dissing was demonstrably dumb, that Sharpton could, a la Jesse Jackson, lure crucial black voters back into the democrat fold.
So how then to siphon off the black votes that will go to Sharpton? Enter clinton lackey, Carol Moseley Braun, nothing more than a cynical extension of clinton drag and drop and legacy of lynching. Upstaged, clinton Recycles Tired Canard, Tries New Revisionist Tack
Hypocrisy abounds in this Age of Clinton, a Postmodern Oz rife with constitutional deconstruction and semantic subversion, a virtual surreality polymarked by presidential alleles peccantly misplaced or, in the case of Jefferson posthumously misappropriated...
Mia T, THE OTHER NIXON
Yesterday, Daniel Patrick Moynihan died. Today, the clintons are arrogating his soul. Hardly surprising. In 1999, the clintons were not at all shy about seizing his still-warm senate seat.
One has merely to recall the Jefferson double-helix hoax to understand that posthumous misappropriation is, for the obvious reason, the clintons' preferred method of legacy inflation….
Standard-Issue clintonism
If misappropriation of Jefferson's alleles hinged on a broken line of descent, misappropriation of Moynihan's endorsement depends on a broken line of dissent. Like Sally Hemmings' progeny, Moynihan's later acquiescence is of dubious lineage
Mia T, Moynihan Myths
The 60-minute C-SPAN reprise of the 60-second 60 Minutes clinton-Dole flop confirmed what the 60 Minutes separate-stages format had plainly suggested: bill clinton would be wise never to share the stage with Bob Dole.
Bob Dole displayed an easy wit; clinton served up faux-folksy bromides laced with underlying rage with stale canard-cum-corollary for good measure.
The canard: If a crook doesn't make a profit, then it's not a crime.
The corollary: The government should pursue a crook if, and only if, the crook's take exceeds the government's cost to nail him.
Casuistry in the service of clinton revisionism....
Posthumous misappropriation is, for the obvious reason, the clintons' preferred method of legacy inflation. While downward revision ("defining deviancy down") is the classic clinton m.o., (see Jefferson double-helix hoax), clinton, exposed, is now arguing the obverse; the double negative offers the illusion of a higher ground.
If the purpose of the canard and corollary is to nullify Whitewater, the purpose of the claim that Ulysses S. Grant was unfairly maligned is to point the clinton hagiographers in the direction of the nonjudgmental... and the non sequitur.
That is, if Grant was unfairly maligned as a drunk, then, according to clinton deconstructionist logic, it follows that clinton was unfairly maligned as a rapist, traitor, perjurer, suborner of perjury, cheat, obstructor of justice, abuser of power, psychopath, corruptor of children, murderer, incompetent, utter failure, proximate cause of 911, and so forth.
an Extension of clinton drag and drop and legacy of lynching
hat is surprising about the clinton-Dole C-SPAN pas de deux is not that clinton demagoguery had gotten so old. What is surprising is that the tautological, snake-oil specious, gasbag sort of banality that had always been the hallmark of clintonspeak was ever considered interesting or credible in the first place.

How's it going Mia. It's good to see you and your off the wall posts again.
I know how it is. My older sister says she has never ONCE uttered the N-word. It has never crossed her lips. She has never even thought it. In fact--she doesn't even know what it means!
(Funny though--I have this--obviously false--childhood memory that she's the one who explained it me. I guess the mind just plays tricks on us all the time.)
I know you prefer the focus to be on the content of your posts but I still think you need to be told every once in a while that you're just simply the best.
Well, either he didn't know his wife as well as he thought, he's lying, or as the DUmmies would suggest, Carl Rove magically modified the tapes to make her look like she was telling a Ghandi gas station joke.
Hey, it must be true - Clinton's an honest man - Dan Rather said so!

hen bill clinton offered up his "ethnic joke" non sequitur, unsolicited, to the New York Daily News, he doubtless never imagined that it would in fact be an ethnic joke by the wife (and to the press and about Gandhi, no less) that would ultimately yank off their clan's omnipresent-but-diaphanous white sheets.
