Memo to Bill: Stay Away

Memo to Bill: Stay Away

Yonkers: As someone involved in and affected by the events of Sept. 11, I have a request for former President Bill Clinton: Please do not attend any event that involves the members of the New York City Fire Department. Do not attend any memorial service, concert or other gathering. And, most importantly, do not set foot on that hallowed site known as Ground Zero.

In my opinion (and it is one shared by most of my FDNY brethren), Mr. Clinton is the single individual in this country most responsible for the events of that infamous day. His emasculation of the military and our intelligence agencies contributed significantly to the evil perpetrated on so many innocent Americans.

Please also forward this request to his spouse and their treacherous coterie of blame-America-firsters, multiculturalists and anti-military elitists. Also, tell him that he has finally discovered his legacy: It sits as a smoldering ruin at Liberty and West Sts.

Lt. James McCaffrey, FDNY

The editorial is great and very succinct, but unless I am wrong, it only ran in the on-line Daily News. If it only ran in the on-line version, it is next to worthless, because very few sheeple surf the net or even read for that matter. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I'm not sure mwl1, but perhaps CRAW, would know better.

Well, he's free to have his opinion, but it ought to be an informed one.

How can anyone who has seen what our military has done to the Taliban think that our military became "emasculated" under Clinton?

It is you who should get more information. I served in the Army under Clinton, Bush Sr. and Reagan, and the years under Clinton were the worst. The worst for retention, morale and readiness.

What you are seeing in Afganistan is a VERY SMALL subset of the military. So, Yehudi, take your own advise and get informed before you spout.

Do you happen to know if this letter ran in the print version of the Daily News?

[Bigg Red]

...his wife, the first lady

AACKK!! No, no, the PIAPS is NOT the first lady now. Please don't tell me that I fell asleep and was only dreaming Laura Bush is the FLOTUS.

Can any of our NY Freepers get an address or email for the writer - would love to send him my heartfelt thanks for a great letter.

YES... We should send him this thread. He'd love it!!!

[Bigg Red]

Good idea. Please ping me if anyone gets a fundraiser going for such an ad.

[betty boop]

Sure is "potent stuff," michaelje. I especially loved this part:

Please also forward this request to his spouse and their treacherous coterie of blame-America-firsters, multiculturalists and anti-military elitists. Also, tell him that he has finally discovered his legacy: It sits as a smoldering ruin at Liberty and West Sts.

Thanks for the bump!!! best, bb.

Or better yet, send him this thread.

Be sure to make note of it that this letter was directed towards Hillary the Rodhamite along with Slick Willie Cli'ton.

Klinton will never go away.

As long as there are morons in NYC and elsewhere who will applaud, cheer, and gladhand him, he will continue to haunt us.

Never forget:

The overwhelming majority of NYC residents voted for Klinton in 2 elections AND WOULD DO IT AGAIN.

[Quix]

Would but sorry, I'm totally ignorant about pinging.

If there is such a service by someone, I'd like to be pinged as well.
