Geeze...have The Most Ethical Couple In History been hanging out with John Huang again? You'd think that after the draconian punishment they received for past "contacts" with that Chinese communist agent,they would have learned their lesson.

What's that you say? They were never punished for those "contacts"............

WRITTEN IN STONE: AN ARCHITECT DEFINES THE CLINTONS
virtualclintonlibrary.blogspot.com
 

 

by Mia T, 12-30-02

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
f mutability of meaning was necessary for the survival of the clintons--their survival hinged ultimately on the deconstruction of words and laws--it is more than a little ironic, and a manifestation of the special sway and shortsightedness of the pathologic ego, that clinton's monument to himself will necessarily define the clintons with the permanence of great inviolate places of iconic architecture.

Whereas a huckster removes meaning from institutions--the wife picked up where the husband left off--an architect encodes meaning in buildings. James S. Polshek, the architect with the dubious distinction of having been commissioned to build the William J. Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, Arkansas, believes that a successful architectural solution must necessarily be rooted in relevance.

Just as Polshek's buildings have physical layers, so too do they have layers of meaning. His Rose Center for Earth and Space, for example, is informed formally and programmatically by the historic architecture of a designated landmark even as it redefines itself, (often too self-consciously, in my view), in Star-Trekian terms. Reduced to its essence, the building is the nascent universe before the Big Bang, the promise of the undifferentiated cell in its mother's womb.

The "bridge to the 21st century" was, perhaps, clinton's most delusional conceit, so it is not surprising that it would become clinton's self-referential metaphor of choice. His library was to be that bridge, if he had anything to say about it...

 

The architect is often the master of the inside joke, witness Robert Venturi's postmodern chairs. Venturi exploited--unabashedly and with abandon--the vocabulary of Las Vegas, its stage-set-as-reality and its roadside culture--bright, clashing, ugly and fake. The architect's inside joke is his hedge against the sycophancy that comes with patronage.

The flip side of the encoded meaning of the architect is the terrorist's decoding of it. To bin Laden, the World Trade Center was Jewish capitalism encoded in urban space. If Polshek's vision of clinton's library is a bridge, the inside joke is that, at best, it is a bridge to nowhere.

More likely, it is a bridge to the 7th century...or a doublewide to house clinton double-speak. Take your choice.

Without a doubt: Clinton is the greatest con-man the world has ever known.

He makes P.T. Barnum look like a piker.

What used car salesman wouldnt want him for a son?.

Why doesn't he depend on his beloved Social Security for his retirement living?

King Ahab was despondent.
"Wuzzamatter, Honey?" asked Queen Jezebel.
"I want that vineyard next door and the owner won't sell it." responded Ahab, pouting.
"Hey" said Jezzy - "who's King around here anyway - you or him?"
"I am" said Ahab weakly.
"I'll take care of that vineyard owner, Hubby" replied 'Bel.
Next day some goons in the Clinton (woops!) Ahab employ set up the vineyard man and the government knocked him off the earth.
"There, Hubby" said Hil - er - Jezebel, "I got you your vineyard. Go claim it."
"Gee, Honey. Thanks! You're marvelous."
"Just remember - now you owe me" finished Jezebel Rodham.

Givers in particular committed themselves providing a financial insurance to the businessmen which would invest in Gaza, to finance a network of mobile telephony for Palestinian the State future and to resolve a million dollars for the children of the Gaza Strip.

Resolve to give a million dollars “for the children”? Here we go again, same ‘ol Clinton same ‘ol rhetoric. Children who are taught to be terrorists daily? Gaza a terrorist state now run by the “sons of Arafat” . Will we never learn.

(An orgy of looting and arson)

By MATTHEW GUTMAN
[snip]For years, Palestinian sovereignty seemed only a dune away; the logic being that were it not for the settlers and their stranglehold on the Gaza Strip, the Palestinians could navigate toward a new future.

Meanwhile these peaceful Palestinians even burned the extensive green houses used for agriculture/food, they had been left as a gift and these wasteful people destroyed them and of course will look to the largess of others to rebuild them and look to others to feed them. Welfare and warfare is the only thing they know.

Responding to --- "For The Children" seg. in one of the links!

Interview with O'Reily and Lucinda Frank with the clinton being the subject

TALKING ABOUT BILL CLINTON
FRANKS: I think you're wrong because, after about two years of -- of working on this, you know, on and off, I think the president -- that the teenage culture caused the president's behavior in the way he behaved in -- with the oral sex.

O'REILLY: I think you're crazy, Ms. Franks, with all due respect.

FRANKS: OK. Well...

O'REILLY: I think that's one of the most -- one of the most insane statements I've ever heard.

FRANKS: Well, let me -- let me explain to you....

O'REILLY: You're telling me that teenage behavior affected the way President Clinton went about his business with Monica Lewinsky?

FRANKS: Because Monica Lewinsky was almost just out of teenager -- and she said, "Let me give oral sex to you," no big thing...
________________________________________________________

The only statement that is true in Lucinda Frank's article is that Monica was just past being a teen-ager. Just a few years older than bill and hillary clinton's own daughter, Chelsea.

Any man or woman is so depraved, perverted, to use a young girl so abusively then allow others to make excuses for their actions - until they themselves believe it was 'some others fault'.

But then that is the story of bill and hillary clinton --- someone else made me do it!!! And they are right. The media, the MSN, MSM, broadcast news, cable news - whatever, has allowed these two to continue to corrupt.

As the MSM continues to go after President Bush on college drinking, daughters drinking, Rove, Haliburton, Iraq, now it is Katrina.

Makes me wonder what a couple of dad's think about the clintons. Daddy Bush for the crap his son has to take from clinton and the msn, as he travel with the clown. AND Monica's family for what has become of their daughter.
