Here is the whole story...I cut off the second sentence by accident:

__________________________________________________________________________

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Bill Clinton won the second Grammy Award of his career on Sunday, when he was honored in the spoken word category for his best-selling memoir "My Life."

Clinton, who was not present to accept his award at the Los Angeles Convention Center, also won a Grammy last year in the spoken word for children category. His wife, U.S. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton won a spoken word Grammy in 1997 for her memoir "It Takes A Village."

[Mr. K]

this is grotesque

[DTogo]

Bill always wins an award in the oral category.

[peyton randolph]

The immoral heaping praise upon the amoral doesn't affect the moral.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

This is the same entertainment industry that was bestowing Michael Moore awards during the last election, so why should any of us be surprised? It's still sickening, though...

[Major Matt Mason]

Lest there be any doubt that the Grammy's are nothing but a big, liberal lovefest...

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Clinton, who was not present to accept his award...

Of course not. He was probably too busy doing one or more of the following:

• lobbying for a U.N. job
• snorting coke
• chasing little girls

[b4its2late]

Correct me if I'm mistaken but isn't the grammy's A-holes voting for A-holes?

[MinuteGal]

Well, it coulda been the Nobel Peace Prize. So I'm not complaining.....

(yet....)

Once again, the line between politics and entertainment is blurred.

I thought it was for a guest appearance in "Sex in the City". Oops, that would be an Emmy.

More Grammy Award winning words;
"I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky." (Washington, D.C., January 26, 1998)

[Conservatrix]

A big circle jerk...

[discostu]

The fact that spoken word is even a category shows why I stopped caring about the Grammys a long long time ago.

[martinidon]

how did his book do anyway? I never really heard anyone praising the book after it came out. There was a lot of hype the weeks before it came out.

[John Lenin]

He's got almost as many awards as the terrorist Arafat.

[Ed_in_NJ]

Grammy is a Commie.

[mhking]

[GAG!]

[small voice in the wilderness]

Funny, one of the MOST irritating things about clinton is his voice. And he wins a Grammy for the spoken word. It must really suck to be hollywood and have such obvious tripe with which to stick it to ordinary Americans. Slim pickins indeed.

[Fruitbat]

The way that many fall oll over Clinton to praise the guy, I'm surprised that he didn't win a Nobel Peace Prize for showing Monica Lewinski how to "brush her teeth" in the name of oral hygiene!
