Bubba's Big Book

After years of writing, former President Clinton finally delivered 'My Life' to the publishers last Thursday.

Now that editors have the text, says spokesman Jim Kennedy, 'the publishers have given the president his life back.'

He's now getting ready for the book tour, where writers cramp from writing the book will be replaced by the writers cramp from autographing it.

Friends say pulling together the 992 page text wasn't easy:

One said Clinton wrote 800 pages before he even reached the subject of his presidency.

Actually x42 had his secretary, Miss Hillary Rottenbottom, call the congressman at 6:30 a.m. "Please hold for my worthless husband, the ex-president ..."

Reading the report carefully, it sounds like the DRAFY had 800 pages or pre-presidency. The final copy is 992 pages. They may have distilled thousands of pages of draft down to the result. Time will tell.

It will be the only presidential memoir sold in a plain brown wrapper.

That's why I don't buy certain books "THE MONEY". There are people like billy clintoon that I will not purposely help them get rich.

All right, here's a closet admission.....As a life long wrestling fan, I'm currently reading Hulk Hogan's assisted autobiography....There I fessed up...I'm envisioning Clinton's being along the same line though...a quick whitewash over any "controversies", quick claim for positive events where his input leaps from "tangential" to "critical", a general effort on his part to make it sound like the United States would have collapsed without his leadership, and absolutely no evidence that he recognizes that he has any shortcomings whatsoever.

I think you're right. Clinton wrote 4,000 pages of longhand. I could see 20% being pre-POTUS. In any case, I doubt that this book will be a best-seller for more than a few weeks. But Bill's egoistic attempts to promote himself and his "legacy" will seriously deflate the Kerry campaign. Even now, with Bush getting all the bad press, at least it's keeping Kerry in the background.

Beelz-a-bubba wrote a 4,000 page first draft?

Cripes, his editor/ghost writer must need some medication by now.
