NEW CLINTON BOOK: THE LIES, THE FIGHTS, THE INSULTS

NEW CLINTON BOOK: THE LIES, THE FIGHTS, THE INSULTS

**Exclusive**

Summer starts with a bang as veteran WASHINGTON POST reporter John Harris traces the emotional highs and lows of the Clinton presidency.

THE SURVIVOR: BILL CLINTON IN THE WHITE HOUSE drops this week from RANDOM [the book ranked #9,527 on AMAZON's sales parade Monday afternoon], but the DRUDGE REPORT can now sneak:

--Bill Clinton was so upset that his weight-loss regimen in 2000 was not working that he made his aides release a bogus number after his annual Navy physical to make him five pounds lighter. (pg. 394)

--Hillary taunted her husband's aides as being wimps by not fighting hard enough on Whitewater - "JFK had real men in his White House!" (pg. 108)

--Tipper Gore was so disgusted in 2000 with Bill and Hillary that she stayed cloistered in a holding room instead of going to a New York reception with major Democratic fund-raisers where the Clintons would be. "No, I'm not doing it," she snapped to an aide. "I'm not going out there with that man."

--The first conversation between Clinton and Gore after the Lewinsky story broke. Clinton is shouting at Gore, "This is a [expletive deleted] coup d'etat!" Gore just stared back blankly. pg 313.

--Former White House counter-terrorism chief Richard Clarke on the record hitting Clinton for not having the guts to fire FBI director Louis Freeh, who Clarke called a major obstacle on anti-terrorism policy. "He should have just fired Freeh and taken the [expletive deleted] it would have caused." (pg. 408)

The POST plans two jumbos on Tuesday, newsroom sources tell DRUDGE.

One story from Harris will outline Hillary Clinton's presidential preparations.

You're being easy on Carter--mean-spirited and small-minded don't come close to describing his traitorous activities, and I do not use that term lightly--actively collaborating with the USSR to try to stay in office, actively working the phones against the US policy in Gulf War 1, coddling Fidel, actually working with Arafat to write speeches more acceptable to the west, and I haven't even touched on South America.

Sorry, I'm not aiming this at you, I get nuts when I see the name of He Who Must Be Despised...

MIDI - END OF THE INNOCENCE (Bruce Hornsby)

For several years they sang his song…he was a hero to their cause
In denial many lived…he placed himself up above the laws
He knew all of the right things to say…down through…hell and then back believers would go
In eight long years he's done to us…more damage than you know

For his neglect we would finally pay the price…the count's three thousand dead
We know just where to place the blame…it is on Bill Clinton's head
When the Cole was hit and brave men died…there is no doubt that he hadn't cried
He looked at his polls and sighed
Now this is the end…this is the end…of his legacy

At OKC he saw his chance…he needed to divide us all
He would create the vast right wing…and his mind-numbed fools would pick up the ball
So we'd fight among ourselves…and the…grand scheme had worked, he got his way
With our attention diverted he…would gut the CIA

For his neglect we would pay the price…the count's three thousand dead
We know just where to place the blame…it is on Bill Clinton's head
When the Cole was hit and brave men died…there is no doubt that he hadn't cried
He looked at his polls and sighed
Now this is the end…this is the end…of his legacy

We endured a psychopath…who saw himself as the Rockstar Prez
We had sent the warnings out…watch what this man does, not what he says

For neglect we paid the price…when those great buildings fell with many dead
And we know just where to place the blame…it's on Bill Clinton's head
When the Cole was hit and brave men died…there is no doubt that he hadn't cried
He looked at his polls and sighed
Now this is the end…this is the end…of his legacy

Hmmmm?? That's interesting. Two things I didn't know .. Bush also fired all the travel people the Clintons brought to town .. and Congress repaid the legal costs.

I could not agree with you more. The man is the most despicable slime ball to ever slither out of the White House. History will not be kind to him and it should not be. The man hates his country almost as much as he loves coddling dictators who hate America.

It's also to counter the other book about all the Clinton women.

It's probably also due to the medicines he must take for his heart surgeries. Over time - when the medicines are stopped, he should be fine.

"Anyone who sleeps with that bitch deserves a medal!" he explained.


It's projection and empathy - he felt he knew what Bradley went through from his own life with Hillary.....

May I suggest you add your post to the reviews on amazon.com when the book comes out (6/21)?

Every American should be reminded that Clinton's true legacy was his ignoring the Jihadst terror which culminated in the burning horror of 9/11/01.....The terrorists planned & plotted their attack while he 'fiddled' with Monica.

...and I'm sure it lets us in on the "house secrets" that the Bill-Hitlery marriage was less than euphoric. LOL

Thanks woofie.

T n C--THANKS TONS AND TONS FOR YOUR HOSPITALITY. Greatly enjoyed the visit. The food was great but the fellowship and dialogue touched me more deeply! LOL.

Also enjoyed getting to know your area.

Pastor is going to read the bit to the funeral as though he were me after a preface that I asked him to do that. I think it should be an emotional and humorous thing of significant impact in several lives. Prayers for same would be great.

Anyway--started this post as a ping to you for this thread. LOL.

LUB,

"What was Carl Weiss's connection with FDR?

(Not that I would be surprised if FDR had a hand in it, but HOW? And how would he get it past the locals? Too many people loved Huey for this to stay under wraps.)"

There was a compelling Bill Kurtis documentary a few years ago that made a very convincing argument that Weiss did not shoot long, but merely punched him, at which time Long's body guards overreacted, pumping Weiss full of lead - while one of their bullets ricochetted off the walls and hit Huey in the back.

In the end, Huey's insurance company ruled the death an 'accident' and never paid out. (The details escape my memory). It was a very interesting piece.

Long could have never beat FDR, but could certainly cut into his margin of victory if he ran as a third party (remember that FDR got 60+% of the vote in 1936 - no one was going to beat him, least of all a little Louisiana demagogue from his own party.

Yeah Bush fired them because they shouldn`t have been hired in the first place. Can you imagine this? Having a career for 32 years and all of a sudden this witch comes in, accuses you of stealing with absolutely no evidence (Hitlery accusing someone of stealing, now that`s a hoot) so she can get her cult members to take your job, and you end up blowing your life savings on legal costs so you don`t go to jail. If anyone should have gone to jail, it should have been Hitlery "hell to pay" Rotten. If I was that guy I would have sued the living freggin` crap out of that b*tch, but of course that takes money too. Congress knew what went on which is why the repaid the legal costs, but because it`s Hitlery once again she gets a pass. That psycho should have been locked up so many times it`s not funny with all the stuff she`s done. Remember that "big investigation" they said they were going to have when Hitlery 'won' the Senate race, and they found out all these pardons and deals that were done in exchange for votes? Gee, whatever happened to that one? I can remember the press conference with that lady saying they were going to investigate, and once again it`s all forgotten. So what if that one community voted 98% for Hitlery, so what if those 3 people who lived in that community had their jail sentences reduced by Bubba, hey it`s the Clintons and they can do anything they want. 98% of the people voting for a candidate is normal!
