My fault. I originally got the audio link off of Drudge's site. Let me dig a bit here, I'm betting someone has a link. Standby
"If you need a reason to pray for Clinton, consider the political clout his death will give to Hillary.
She'd play the grieving widow, and invoke Clinton's name lovingly in speeches. Sympathy plus her baffling popularity with women will overshadow much of her politics and record... and it might be enough to propel her in the White House. (With Bill alive, she's the wife of a popular adulterer. Dead, she'd be the widow of a popular former President. My math says the former is politically good ammo... although alive he can appeal to those women who think he's handsome. So who knows...)
Pray for Bill! May he live a dozen more years."
Who would ever have thunk that WE on the right would be praying for his survival and good health, while I'm kinda thinking that Shrilliary is secretly smiling at the thought of his demise. Of the irony.

Good work.
The perp should be fired.

You might be right. I don't know, and would want more evidence. For example, timestamps on each of the smaller stories, comapred with the timestamp on Hays' piece.
There is a FR post at 14:16:20 (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1206685/posts) for what appears to be the "original" story. Is Hays' article before or after that?
Well, account for your fictitious urges:
"He's is in our thoughts and prayers," Bush said. Bush's audience of thousands in West Allis, Wisconsin, booed. Bush did nothing to stop them.
We're waiting... who do you think you work for: the NY TIMES??
Aren't you just glad he didn't die in office? *shudder*
What if he became the next Zell Miller? (With man, this is impossible, but with God, all things are possible)
The name to remember is "Tom Hays".
Yes, he wins the Clymer Award this year.

CORRECTION:

Tom Hays I'm sure has an axe to grind over it. So what's a little made up news these days? After all, it gets you the democrat presidential nomination!
This is one of them. I wrote a letter to Tom Hays' boss but I'm still steaming. I'd give my firsborn that this story doesn't die.
It's mean, vicious lying and nothing less.
AP needs to be pressured into issuing a very loud and contrite retraction. An apology would be nice.
Until then, I guess we'll have to tape record, capture audio and have eyewitnesses at every damn event that the lies are caught.
I'll be steaming all day over this.

"He's is in our thoughts and prayers," Bush said at a campaign rally.

Like black churches burning in Arkansas what matters is the fact that Hays knew everyone in the Bush crowd would liked to have boooed, but restrained it, much like everyone in Arkansas but Young Clinton would have liked to see black churches burning, so it's ok to say it for the record anyway.
Liberals just have this sixth sense and are able to see what's really going on. Someone has to warn the world!
"Until then, I guess we'll have to tape record, capture audio and have eyewitnesses at every damn event that the lies are caught.

Of course the RUB is that WE know the truth, but how many of these get through to the rest of America, who beleive this cr%p when they read it. It becomes another talking point for the Libs to jab in our faces: "Your guys celebrated Bill's bad health", ohhhh - here we go AGAIN!
