Speaking at an academic conference examining his presidency here Thursday, Clinton challenged historian Douglas Brinkley's comments in a newspaper interview that Clinton would be deemed a great president were it not for his impeachment.

"I completely disagree with that," Clinton said in his speech at Hofstra University. "You can agree with that statement, but only if you think impeachment was justified. Otherwise, it was an egregious abuse of the Constitution and law and history of our country."

I agree with Clinton in the sense that his trial for removal from office was “an egregious abuse of the Constitution and law and history of our country."

It was an abuse of Constitution and law and history of our country that the trial was limited to the perjury, witness tampering, and obstruction of justice.

Weak kneed Senators in fear for their jobs with an election close at hand chose before the trial what charges would be heard and in every sense had decided the case long before the trial started.

Justice was denied, a traitor was allowed to remain in office and mud was tracked across the hallowed parchment of the Constitution.

Too bad the Bush family has single handedly resurrected this flaming A-hole's reputation, which is why he is so comfortable jet setting the globe to spew this garbage.

"Now if you want to hold it against me that I did something wrong, that's a fair deal," CLINTON said.

9-11 Survivors Report on How Bill Clinton Left America Vulnerable to Terrorist Attacks
D.C. Chapter ^ | Thursday, April 8, 2004


Posted on 04/08/2004 4:07:23 AM PDT by kristinn


As survivors of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the members of the D.C. Chapter of Free Republic feel entitled to issue this report. Many of us witnessed the attacks and their aftermath in person. Some of us were in New York City at the World Trade Center that day, others were at, near or just across the river from the Pentagon. (None of our chapter members witnessed the plane crash in Pennsylvania.)

The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic is an independent grassroots conservative organization founded in 1998. Every Saturday for the last 28 months of the Clinton administration, members of the D.C. Chapter stood outside the Clinton White House informing visitors, tourists, media and employees of the administration of the willful damage being done to America’s national security by President Clinton, First Lady Hillary Clinton, Vice President Gore and their myrmidons in and out of government.

The Bush administration, seven months in office at the time, deserves whatever criticism is due an incoming administration that had to clean up eight years of damage on many fronts left by the outgoing one. However, no one can accuse President Bush of the serious lapses in judgment and dereliction of duty committed by former President Clinton.

On his last days in office, al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden were far from Bill Clinton’s mind. His priorities were copping a plea with prosecutor Robert Ray (a presidential first) that would keep him out of jail and wreaking his revenge on the American justice system with a pardoning fury that culminated in the pardon of international fugitive Marc Rich.

That Clinton ended his presidency on such a criminal-like note is not surprising to anyone who observed him objectively. This was a man who served himself first, last and always.

Who but a Democrat, can forget that Bill Clinton, while he talked on the telephone with Rep. Sonny Callahan regarding the congressman’s concerns about the safety of our troops deployed to Bosnia, was receiving oral sex from Monica Lewinsky in the Oval Office study? In fact, getting serviced by Ms. Lewinsky while on the phone conducting official business with congressmen and others was a habit of Clinton’s.

Bill Clinton did not care that he had exposed the presidency to blackmail by a foreign power by engaging in at least seventeen phone sex calls with Monica Lewinsky on her unsecured line. Clinton laughed off concerns of a national security breach, telling Ms. Lewinsky that if they were blackmailed to say they were just making it up.

During the Clinton administration, the closest African-American woman to the president was White House secretary Betty Currie. It was to Ms. Currie whom Bill Clinton turned to facilitate and later cover-up his affair with Monica Lewinsky in the White House.

The dutiful Currie, in a manner reminiscent of the ante-bellum South, once locked herself in the bathroom while, just outside the door, Ms. Lewinsky performed oral sex on her boss, former Arkansas governor, Bill Clinton.

Clinton’s sex-obsessed nature became a national joke even as the nation was put in danger because of it. Of course Clinton’s nature was not a joke to the many women who accused him of rape and/or sexual assault like Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey and Paula Jones, among others.

During the period from 1997 to 1999, as Bill Clinton struggled to keep from being impeached and removed from office for perjury and obstruction of justice, and while he worked to keep a lid on the Chinagate scandal, al-Qaeda metastasized into a deadly international threat to America.

In 1998, while al-Qaeda plotted and bombed American targets, Bill Clinton held but two cabinet meetings: One to lie to his cabinet, the other to confess his lie after it was confirmed he allowed Monica Lewinsky to leave the White House with her blue dress covered in his semen after an oral sex session.

Rather than admitting his guilt and resigning from office like he should have, Bill Clinton fought those seeking to hold him accountable to the rule of law with more energy and determination than he ever did al-Qaeda.

National security lapses weren’t limited to Bill Clinton’s sex life. In his first term, Clinton took millions of dollars in illegal campaign donations. Much of those donations came from agents of communist China who were given extraordinary access to the government in exchange for their largesse.

The Chinagate scandal, which included American companies that bought favors from the Clinton administration that aided China’s ICBMs, helped put the lie to Clinton’s boast that “no nuclear missiles are pointed at America’s children” under his watch. Toward the end of Clinton’s second term, Energy Secretary Bill Richardson admitted that China had about sixteen nuclear missiles targeted at America. Cold comfort when they repeatedly threatened to nuke Los Angeles as Bill Clinton slow-walked our missile defense system development.

Airline safety was compromised by Vice President Gore’s decision to not seek standards that could have made the September 11 plane hijackings more difficult, if not impossible. Naturally, that decision was followed by hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign donations by the airline industry to the Democrat party.

Terrorists had a great friend in the White House during the Clinton years. Members of the Marxist FALN terrorists were pardoned in 1999 to help Hillary Clinton’s bid for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Pat Moynihan.

Yasser Arafat played Bill Clinton like a sucker for years. It should be funny, but it’s not, that the terrorist Arafat has a worthless Nobel Peace Prize while Clinton doesn’t.

Bill Clinton’s disregard for national security led him to completely lose his authorization card with nuclear launch codes. Clinton even lost the nuclear football when he stormed out of a 1999 NATO meeting in Washington, D.C. and was driven back to the White House without the military aide who carries the nuclear football. The aide had to walk the mean streets of our nation’s capital back to the White House.

That was not unusual for a man who nearly left his daughter, Chelsea, behind in Moscow while on a state visit, or for a man who took such poor care of the two dogs he owned as a governor and president, respectively, that they were both run over by cars.

It is not with joy that this report is issued. However, as survivors of September 11, we have watched the investigation into the government’s handling of the terrorist threat devolve into a nasty partisan fight by the Democrat party and their proxies.

We know that the legacy of the leader of the Democrats during the 1990s was one of utter disregard for the national security of the United States that left us wide open to the September 11 attacks.

"Oh, Willie, there's a lot more than that to cause history to judge you poorly."

Not to mention that there is compelling evidence that Clinton transferred or allowed the transfer of an enormous amount of classified information and technology in exchange for the Red Chinese's financing of his 1996 campaign when there weren't enough red-blooded Americans who would. If history is written by honest investigative historians, the odds are at least 50-50 that Bill Clinton and Benedict Arnold will be discussed in the same chapter.

Calling the tribunal in the Senate a trial is an oxymoron. In trials, they present the evidence. Is there really anyone who believes that he would not have been removed from office if the House Managers had been allowed to publicly present the evidence?

There would never have been any Federal Marshals at the Branch Davidian compound related to firearms violations if the federal government was living within the Constitution. Americans who see a difference between what happened to the Davidians and the Jews in Poland are going to be just as shocked as the Jews in Germany or the Jews in the rest of Nazi dominated Europe or dare I say as shocked as Russians who opposed communism or as shocked as millions of Chinese in the cultural revolution.

Socialism is not only a failed economic model, but because it must be imposed from the top down, it is also a poisonous political model. It is astounding to me how many people believe the conventional wisdom that the American people want socialism and that no politician who opposes socialism can win. If socialism is God's gift to Democrats, why is it that participation in Social Security and Medicare is mandatory? And why is it that even a discussion of making participation, even partial participation, a matter of voluntary choice up to the individual American sends Democrats into a state of shock bordering on acute schizophrenia?

If you are not a Marxist or a Keynesian economist, and you believe freedom and free markets are part of our God-given rights which demand that you, as an individual American, have the right to make your own choices, then you should be following the series of articles that will lead to a government that can't dictate your choices to you because the Constitution has been restored. And we invite you to join this effort and invite you to take The Pledge.

All part of the Hillary '08 effort, along with his ever-present narcicissm, of course.

LOL! The only "egregious abuse" that occurred was Clinton's disgracing the Presidency to hide an affair with a girl old enough to be his daughter!

Notice how Clinton doesn't care to mention how he lied on the stand in a court of law while under oath...

I guess a proven slimy jerk looking for favor from the masses tends to forget these little nasty details of history.

Clinton would like for us to consider his weirdo sexual activities with a young intern as a private betrayal of his family, but the truth is he lied under oath and also wagged his finger and attempted to destroy the young girl with false denials.

If not for the dress he stained with his semen, Clinton would to this day still be destroying her as a liar, just like all his other sexual victims.

"Clinton Calls Impeachment Egregious Abuse"

Sounds to me as if he's disappointed the abuse
didn't include whips, chains and a really big
vibrator.
