Excerpt: "Right after the attacks, Clinton admitted to a friend that he wished, for the first time, to be back in the White House. LIAR. He made it plain he never wanted to leave the White House, ever. Had friends looking into ways he could stay. Even looked into overturning term limits. He's been quoted numerous tims saying he wanted to run for a third term. I want him and her to just shut up and go away.

He may be 'tormented' with angst, but only because he isn't the center of attention now.
I truly believe Clinton is a very despondent and self-loathing guy.
He craves attention and is so wrapped up in his 'legacy'. Hell, even Nixon shunned the spotlight for a long time after his exit, though he then went on to write and continue to offer advice to sitting presidents.
WJC just refuses to accept the fact that it was his presidency that was illegitimate. He never received more than 49% of the popular vote in his two elections and he would've been a one-termer if the G.O.P. had ran a Conservative against him and not Dole.
Clinton's main problem is that he pathetically seeks broad, (no pun intended!), acceptance, of which he'll never have. He's from a dysfunctional, hick family, he's the 'kin with smarts that caught the greasy pig'. And you'd think for someone who was so "intelligent", he'd be exploring several different avenues of employment now. By the way, has he ever had a job outside of politics? (Even in his teens?)
The guy, like his wife, is an emotional and psychological mess.

NEW Zogby Poll: Americans Prefer President Bush to Bill Clinton, 72% to 20% But, but, but... the pressholes are the other 20%. They got to shove this garbage of the humanity into our faces daily!!! That what gets me.

That pest Perot's 13% of the vote got the Clintons in the first time and Dole's inept
campaign and his throwing conservatives off the ship got Clintons in the second time.
I'll say this much for the conniver Clinton's....they have effective enemies.

....from Waco to the Camp David meltdown, from Somalia to the USS Cole). ... Ohhhhhhh ...now we're talking legacy here!!! A "legacy" that will live in infamy.
Liz, I think you've got it.
He has become totally irrelevant except for the infamous deeds he left behind.
To: fire and forget
He's still living HIGH on our tax dollars. How much is he/her charging our Treasurery for housing the SS who are guarding their useless butts in Chapaqua? His and her sense of self is so great, they cannot equate the devestation and agony of the WTC attack on 9/11. They are vulgar beyond belief in every way.
To: tillacum
I think we have just seen what hell will be like for the B*stard when he arrives there: a complete inability to participate in ANYTHING redeeming...
May God deliver justice to him. There is nothing *I* could do that would satisfy enough....

He didn't plan it this way obviously. But then evildoers never foresee the consequences of their actions.

Clinton's become the paradigm Kafkaesque anti-hero brooding in dark passivity.....
Not exactly on the subject but in the latest Frank Capra bio,
t'was said no one in Hollowood (sic) guessed that he was a closet conservative.

Can't argue with what ya said, Liz.
But I have to point out that if not for those three infamous words..."read my lips"...we would have never had to endure eight years of carnival workers in the White House.

never had to endure eight years of carnival workers in the White House. That too. I don't disagree. You'll have to admit, Perot the Pest drew off all those Repub votes.

Good!... Maybe he will get so depressed that he will blow his pathetic, sniffeling face off.
Thanks, it does help dosen't it.
To: jla
By the way, has he ever had a job outside of politics? (Even in his teens?) In between living off the taxpayers as an elected official,
I think he once had a "job" as a teacher but it was short-lived.
BTW, he never owned a house in Ark. A real stable guy, eh?

I don't get Capra as a conservative at all. I think he was more of a "populist" in the mold of people like Robert LaFollette of Wisconsin.
