Who Will Willie Vilify In His Novel?
5/12/04 | Tacis

Posted on 05/12/2004 11:48:14 AM PDT by Tacis

Bill Clinton is supposed to publish his 900 page memoir before the November election.

I'm surprised that no one has yet done this, it seems so obvious.

Let's try to steal a little of his legacy building to guess who he will bad-mouth in an effort to make himself look less corrupt.

He can say nothing that will make Willie look worse. He can say nothing that will make Hillie look worse. He can say nothing that will make the dems or any of their primary constituencies look worse. Who, then, can he vilify in an effort to make himmself look not quite so bad as we all know he is?

There are the obvious, George W Bush, Ken Starr and ...?

My bet is that he will attack mostly dead men, people who can not answer the outrageous claims of superiority that he will make. On my list are Paul Wellsone who will be accused of taking the party too far left forcing Willie to expend resources to correct the drift, thereby, retaining the fable that Willie is a centrist.

He's not dead, but Willie will beat on President Reagan, believing that the only ones he'll alienate by doing so already have fixed opinions about Willie's legacy.

What other world leaders died while Willie was president?

Sure, he'll tell a story or two about what a great guy Mother Teresa thought he was and what pals they were. But, the choice bits will be about the folks he is able to take shots at without any risk to himself, his wife's ambition and his ill fated legacy.

Don't forget his mother and grandmother-that's who he blamed his penchant for abusing women on.

If Monica were smart, she could probably geta multi-million advance for a book that would refute, point by point, line by line, what Bill and Hillary said in their books...

Dear Mr. Ex-President Clinton:

I recently saw a bumper sticker that said, "Thank me, I voted for
Clinton-Gore." So, I sat down and reflected on that, and I am sending my
"Thank you" for what you have done, specifically:

1. Thank you for introducing us to Jennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, Monica
Lewinsky, Dolly Kyle Browning, Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broderick. Did
I leave anyone out?

2. Thank you for teaching my 8 year-old about oral sex. I had really
planned to wait until they were older to discuss it with them, but now they
know more about it than I did as a senior in college.

3.. Thank you for showing us that sexual harassment in the work place
(especially the White House) and on the job is OK, and all you have to know
is what the meaning of "is" is. It really is great to know that certain
sexual acts are not sex, and one person may have sex while the other one
involved does NOT have sex.

4. Thank you for reintroducing the concept of impeachment to a new
generation and demonstrating that the ridiculous plot of the movie, "Wag
the Dog" could be plausible after all.

5. Thanks for making Jimmy Carter look competent, Gerald Ford look
graceful, Richard Nixon look honest, Lyndon Johnson look truthful, and John
Kennedy look moral.

6. Thank you for the 73 House and Senate witnesses who have pled the 5th
Amendment and 17 witnesses who have fled the country to avoid testifying
about Democratic campaign fund raising.

7. Thank you, for the 19 charges, 8 convictions, and 4 imprisonments from
the Whitewater "mess" and the 55 criminal charges and 32 criminal
convictions (so far) in the other "Clinton" scandals.

8. Thanks also for reducing our military by half, "gutting" much of our
foreign policy, and flying all over the world on "vacations" carefully
disguised as necessary trips. It seems you have been campaigning for
Secretary General of the United Nations since your reelection in 1996.

9. Thank you, also, for "finding" millions of dollars--- I really didn't
need it in the first place, and I can't think of a more well deserving
group of recipients for my hard-earned dollar than jet fuel for all of your
globe-trotting. I understand you, your family and your cronies have logged
in more time aboard Air Force One than any other administration. Good luck
on your continued campaign to be King of the world.

10. Now that you've left the White House, thanks for the 140 pardons of
convicted felons and indicted felons-in-exile. We will love to have them
rejoin society.

11. Thanks also for removing the White House silverware. I'm sure that
Laura Bush didn't like the pattern anyway. Also, enjoy the housewarming
gifts you've received from your "friends."

12. Thanks to you and your staff in the West Wing of the White House for
vandalizing and destroying government property on the way out. I also
appreciate removing all of that excess weight (China, silverware, linen,
towels, ash trays, soap, pens, magnetic compass, flight manuals, etc.) out
of Air Force One. The weight savings means burning less fuel, thus less
tax dollars spent on jet fuel. Thank you!

13. And, please ensure that Hillary enjoys the $8 million dollar advance
for her upcoming "tell-all" book and you, Bill, the $10 million advance for
your memoirs. Who says crime doesn't pay?

14. The last and most important point - thank you for forcing Israel to
let Mohammed Atta go free. Terrorist pilot Mohammed Atta blew up a bus in
Israel in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part
of the Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993, Israel had to agree to
release so-called "political prisoners." However, the Israelis would not
release any with blood on their hands. The American President at the time,
Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, "insisted"
that all prisoners be released. Thus Mohammed Atta was freed and
eventually thanked the US by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World
Trade Center. This was reported by many of the American TV networks at the
time that the terrorists were first identified. It was censored in the US
from all later reports. Why shouldn't Americans know the real truth?

God bless America and THANK YOU (once again) for spending my taxes so
wisely and frugally.

SINCERELY,

A US Citizen

PS. Please pass along a special thank you to Al Gore for "inventing" the
Internet, without which I would not be able to send this wonderful factual
e-mail.

Round up the usual suspects and you'll probably be right.

Lily, you need to backcheck the Atta bit. That was a different Atta in Israel.

I can't picture why anyone would shed thirty some bucks for Clinton's' trash? We already know he'll lie, misrepresent, and change facts to meet his ego. He was a "do nothing" President and a traitor to his nation. Why monetarily reward him by purchasing his BS????

I wont be reading it. It'll be pure unadulterated trash just like clintin himself. What a joke that will be. Man, he'll be so happy to be back in the limelight again. Never could let go of the Presidency. Used the oval office as his own personal playground for all kinds of deviant behavior with an intern. Sick that man is ... just plain sick.

He should just write a book and title it: "Monica Lewinsky...my only true legacy." Cause that's EXACTLY what his legacy is now and always will be.

Thank you. My post was based upon an email I rec'd. When I viewed that portion of it, I wasn't quite sure but thought "what the heck, post it anyway."

It'll be like a conversation with my grandfather:

"Remember so-and-so?"
"Yes."
"He's dead now."
"Remember so-and-so?"
"Yes."
"He's dead now."
"Remember so-and-so?"
"Yes."
"He's dead now."
"Remember so-and-so?"
"Yes."
"He's dead now."
"Remember so-and-so?"
"Yes."
"He's dead now."
"Remember so-and-so?"
"Yes."
"He's dead now."
"Remember so-and-so?"
"Yes."
"He's dead now."
