"Not even Clinton can get away with a book that completely ignores reality. He has to talk about Monica, etc. in the book because everyone knows it pretty much happened."
"Now, the same American media that has turned smut into a spectator sport is going to focus on the affair."
Yes, as they all walk in step to promote the liar-in-chief's book....they will all want the "news" on his affair with Monica. My question will be, will they ask him about Juanita and the hundreds of others? Will they ask him if he felt like he succeeded in keeping Chinagate off the front pages? I doubt it.
But, in their quest to re-build Bill, this will do nothing but bring up the liar's past and his degrading of the office of the President. I hope he gets what's coming.......a dose of a reality.
I went to Borders the other day to buy a book, and they had huge (about 4 ft high, 3 ft wide) photo posters of the Bilious hanging everywhere. It reminded me of the giant posters of Mao or Stalin. It was creepy !
I can't see large numbers of people actually reading his 957 page "book". As in his speeches as president, Clinton had no discipline. Obviously his model for speech writing was the Soviet dictators making 5 hour speeches in front of the Supreme Soviet. Of course leftists have a preference for quantity over quality.
Check out the review from the New York Times on Clintoon's book.

I really liked the ending of the review:
"Lies about sex and real estate, partisan rancor over "character issues" (not over weapons of mass destruction or pre-emptive war), psychobabble mea culpas, and tabloid wrangles over stained dresses all seem like pressing matters from another galaxy, far, far away."
I read the NYT review. I've gained a modicum of respect for the times. They're seeming to "tell it like it is."
Pray for W and The Johnson Family
That's a new one.

That statement by George Will is anchored proudly on my refrigerator for all the world to see.
That is, was and always will be his legacy. No amount of books, fabrications or anything else will ever, change that. We know it and so does HE. He made his bed...now he lies in it.
???What the he** is Fred Smoking?
Hello, FRED!!!
He failed us in national security, he failed to uphold good moral standards for all of us (most importantly, our kids) and failed to leave office with the 4.3% economic growth he inherited (it was 2.12% when he left office)
What does this goofball consider 'failing'?
"That's a joke, son! Don't ya get it? I made a funny and you're not laughin'!"
There are some things about Clinton that aren't often discussed, such as how he lost all of our nuclear secrets to the Chinese. He may, in fact, have sold those secrets to the them for campaign contributions. The Republicans, cowards that they are, wanted nothing to do with that one. I still say that Jimmy Carter was the worst president in history, but there are some things about Clinton that are very troubling indeed.
Peggy Noonan's description of Hillary would suit Bill, too; squat and grasping.
You are right.....the 90's economy was a sham.
X42(I) signed "welfre reform" only after it was passed with veto-proof margins in both the House and Senate. Fred should know this. The Rs would have loved to have rammed this into X42(I) on a veto override. It doesn't matter what Dickie "advised."
Good point! Humanitarian indeed.
Bump this great piece.
