Like Andrea Peyser, I have had just about enough of Bill Clinton's self-congratulatory banter ("Clinton Lie-brary," Nov. 22). He came in on the wings of an economic upswing that he had nothing to do with, and he went out on its decline. He degraded his office, refused to take responsibility for any of his actions and sought no real recourse against the three terrorist attacks that took place on his watch. Enough already.

Clinton spins history like a top, and Hillary enables him. When push came to shove with the Islamic terrorists in 1993, 1996, 1998 and 2000, he was AWOL. A library should record historical truth, not Clintonian clap-trap. Paul Bloustein Cincinnati, Ohio

Who gives a hoot about the Clinton library? Does it have Monica Lewinsky's famous dress in it? The guy was a bum. He was only the second president in history to be impeached. He sold us out to China. And he wonders about his place in history? At least Grant was a war hero. Robert Mings El Dorado, Kan.

Bill Clinton was not the first man, or woman, to engage in unsanctified sex. Nor was he the first to avoid, by almost any means, being exposed. It has always bothered me that he didn't simply say, "My sex life is not for public discussion," and be done with the matter. But the fact remains, his sex life should be none of our business. Peyser says that she was worried about her kids hearing about oral sex on the news. Now they can hear about torture of detainees, collateral damage and American soldiers dying. Where are Peyser's priorities? Larry McDowell Port Hadlock, Wash.

Good point!
The Clinton LieBrary and urinal will be a pariah for future historians. They will not go there because of the taint.
Fortunately, there are other sources in the public domain including the vast archive assembled by the FReeper Alamo Girl. The Downside Legacy will point researchers in the right direction.
Historians thrive on controversy and the Liebrary will provide counterpoint to the theme of personal failure and weakness.
Have you heard about the cookie using Hillary's recipe that are sold at the Clinton Liebrary?
Did the Clinton liebary exhibit his disbarrment papers, too?
Hahah. Hardly. (You expressed my thoughts exactly.)
You'll need to document your claims, after you note that Pennsylvania (the most noted since his heart attack) is in the Kerry column.
...every candidate he campaigned for in person during the 2004 campaign lost
You may wish to research your other claims as well.
If Kerry won anything at all, with or without Clinton's help, it was due to massive voter fraud.
The LIEbrary is his legacy.........a sewer on stilts.
Now, Liz, you've had three weeks to enjoy the victory with some measure of modesty and I am saddened that you have joined the blog-foggers in such jingoist exhuberance.
For starters, the Kerry majorities in Illinois, California, New York, New Jersey and Massalooselips were just a touch too immense to lay to fraud.
That said, there is no question in my mind that Wisconsin was stolen by McGee and friends in Millfartee...Happy Thanksgiving and start shopping, you capitalist war monger.
Hey, you must be from Arkansas. You're the first one I've seen who correctly spelled Lieberry.
I can't believe that even Sick Willie approved that eyesore for his lieberry.
Bridge to whatever century?? It is to laugh.
Doublewide?? Of course. Appropriate for Billy.
And Dubya should refuse to accept it.
Bump!
Still working on that stain...
"The LIEbrary is his legacy.........a sewer on stilts."
Did any of us expect any different?! Slick Willie's a sociopath...he believes his own spin!! To him, he ain't lying when he tries to make excuses as to why he allowed Osama bin Laden to remain free when we had ample opportunity to bring him in and make an example outta him. Fact is, he's a wart on image of the Oval Office and will be long-remembered fer being such an embarrassment. That's his legacy...embarrassment built on self-delusion!!
