[Dr.Deth]

Someone check Sandy Berger's Swiss bank account for a large recent deposit from ABC. This is too juicy.

It would have to be a large deposit, Sandy keeps his valuables in his socks.

So Bill is saying that he was not preoccupied with Monica. Who was the Congressman that he was discussing Troop deployment with when he was (being serviced) under his desk? This was documented in the Starr Report. Nope.....no preoccupation here.

But more so for Clinton because 8 years > 9 months.

In defense of W, and in condemnation of Gore and the MSM, Buss-II took office politically weakened by the Florida recount fiasco. If Bush-II had wanted to tighten airline security, or increase vigilance against terrorism, prior to 9-11, can you imagine the hue and cry that would have arisen from the MSM and the Democrats?

[stockstrader]

He was getting 'serviced' by Monica while he was discussing the dispatch of US troops to Bosnia with Congressman Sonny Callahan of Alabama. How DISRESPECTFUL is THAT to the military and their families????

Oooops, I forget, 'it's his private sex life', right? (s/off)

[stockstrader]

Nope, no 'preoccupation' there at all.

Remember, the Slick 'apologists' took great pride in Slick's ability to 'compartmentalize', remember?

I recently spoke to my father (was Army Sergeant/medic stationed in Germany during Korean war) about the war on terror. His first point was that Americans should be on our knees daily thanking God that George W. Bush is President, Dick Cheney is Vice President and Donald Rumsfeld is Secretary of Defense.

His second point was that if the demoncrats win the White House praying to God will be all that will be left cause the demoncraps will not use our great military properly.

I completely agree with his sober points.

If we don’t want our future American generations to be speaking Arabic and wearing turbans the GOP is the only way to go. Warts and all.

I always wondered what it would be like to see the true liars have to defend themselves and they are vigourously to the applause of many of us out here just happy to see them having to finally become accountable.

[redgolum]

Been wondering about point 2 myself. Something is very odd here, and doesn't quite add up.

[fml]

My thoughts as well. Why she thinks it shouldnt' be shown just made me remember why I stopped watching that show - I don't care for her one bit.

[VRWCmember]

The letter, written by Bruce Lindsey, head of the Clinton Foundation, and Douglas Bond, a top lawyer in Clinton's office, accuses the ABC drama of "bias" and a "fictitious rewriting of history that will be misinterpreted by millions of Americans."

Still waiting to see Lindsey's letter complaining about Mikey Moron's fictitious rewriting of history in "Bowling for Columbine" and "Fahrenheit 9/11".

[ripley]

he was quoted as saying, "if you don't pull that dayam thaing, i'm gonna
raise ya taxes agin...."

Bubba made a huge tactical error in stiring this, many people probably are going to watch now that otherwise wouldn't (have watched)... one thing we can always count on -- his ego. Always gets in the way of his so-called political sense.

[ripley]

it's about time that he got a taste of his own medicine.

[Arizona Carolyn]

Not if enough of us encourage them otherwise... the threats from three congressmen would make me more determined to put it on if I was ABC -- what happened to free speech?

[Arizona Carolyn]

CBS and the Viacom sent it over to Showtime and they showed it there.

saxophone- playing instant nausea.

A hypothesis about why Clinton is…well, “Bubba”.

He’s someone who was born and raised in Arkansas, a state with its own particular flavor of politics. All his experience, prior to building national following was local “Arkansas style” politics. By that, I mean the “good ol’ boy” way of getting things done; the fundamental belief that politics done Arkansas style is politics done right. To Bubba, it doesn't matter that what he wants is wrong. It matters only that he wants it and that he gets his way, no matter what the cost. He really doesn't know why so many people hate him and his way of getting things done. His early successful experience “Arkansas style” validated his internal belief that this is how things are done.

He reached the highest office in the land with the support and help of people from outside Arkansas who bought into his Arkansas style of getting things done for the sake of their own political ambitions. It’s a variant of the “Emperor has no clothes” theme. Bubba truly didn’t know that the whole world didn’t play by Arkansas rules and his more sophisticated supporters chose not to tell him. In other words, the non-Arkansan pols who supported him knew that bubba was an amoral, ruthless “win at all costs” guy who actually believed the whole country played the game the way they did in Arkansas. They took a chance with a bright guy with some quirky beliefs and values to get ahead themselves.

And they won. They pulled it off. They got what they wanted, and the country got a president who had his odd Arkansas style corrupt belief system validated.

That’s why Clinton can’t understand why some of us hate him and will until the day he dies. He truly cannot understand that heretofore, politicians of his ilk never made it to the top of the political ladder. Because there were enough people who refused to go along with the quirky brand of politics played in backwater places like Arkansas.

Unfortunately, the “genie is out of the bottle” and people, once exposed to this particular variant of political corruption, are much more likely to accept it again in the future.
