I have an important message for Bill Clinton and his aides:

Mr.(Impeahed)Bill Clinton, As you well know, you served(Yourself)the Country for 8 years and no matter how hard you try, you can't change the past and you can't reverse the hands of time. You were given an opportunity that only a few people can ever dream of, and you chose to use this rare opportunity to shape and groom your legacy instead of doing the job you were elected to do. When you were called upon to lead this nation and failed to do so by following the pulse of the majority through Pollster's. You failed as a leader and you squandered the only chance you had to place yourself among the best leaders that served this Republic.

The Legacy you have left for yourself in the history books will be one of corruption and scandal. You see, you were too busy worrying about your legacy instead of leading. Mr. Clinton, the people of this great Nation elect leaders not Presidents, and you failed as a leader and therefore your presidency was one of failure and no matter how you spin it, you had your chance to lead and you blew it. But don't worry, "you will not be remembered as the worst President this country has ever had. You will be remebered as the worst person ever to become President" A quote by: George Will

"Press his case" is just a statement that means NOTHING, other than gee, can we figure out how to revive him ..... IMHO

[Toidylop]

Clinton said he was getting more of a positive response about his legacy with younger people.

Clinton's legacy: Blow by blow account beyond the White House...

Well said, friend, well said.

[M. Thatcher]

This man is going to drive me crazy, you know that, don't you?????

No, you can relax now. Nobody his buying his act. Read this closely; it is NOT a puff piece. This is written with eye-rolling.

See the entertainment value here — it is entirely hilarious. Can you imagine this meeting? A meeting that people actually went out and talked to the NYT about? Describing the Big He holding forth for TWO HOURS (he "dominated" the meeting) about HIMSELF? Claiming that, gee, college kids (who don't have a clue) still like him? And he's putting together a WAR ROOM, expecting other adults to actually put any effort into this? This is pathetic. And fun.

"They have NOT led..........WE WILL"

It was nice of the New York Times to give Clinton a free advertisement announcing his campaign. In the next few days, all the other media will pick this up. Clinton will be "reconsidered". Pundits will eventually opine that he has been neglected and underrated. Just watch. Perfect timing too. End of the year is slow, the media usually fills time and space with retrospectives of the year. Now they will have Clinton to obsess over.

BUMP BUMP BUMP

[Howlin]

Thank you. You may have just saved my sanity. I shall forward ALL Clinton columns to you from now on so you can vet them for me. :-)

yech!!

[F16Fighter]

Hehehe -- yeah, some "achievements" AND don't forget -- Hillary wants to "defend" Bubba's "legacy." Is this rich or what??

The bad news for Rodham is: Time will reflect her treasonous husband's "legacy" exactly as it was. The dirtiest, sleaziest, most law subverting, sex-offending, extortionist, lying, slanderous presidency America will ever see. The next time the Republic may not survive his ilk.

[goodnesswins]

You're right about this giving the press something to talk about at the end of the year....but, HOW MANY People really want to hear about this LOSER!? He's gone, over, done, except for his desire to be head of the UN - that is one thing I do worry about - the stooges there.

[A Citizen Reporter]

Exactly, seems to me that the clintons have a few leakers to be concerned about.......

[Consort]

Terry "Keep Hate Alive"® McAuliffe was on O'Reilly tonight spewing his anti-American venom.

[M. Thatcher]

I shall forward ALL Clinton columns to you

Aaaaaaaaaah! Then I'll need the rubber room...

Bull's-eye.

There, there, Howlin, Breathe in deeply, exhale, Breathe in deeply, exhale. Your feeling calmer, calmer, LOL Ya know, we keep thinking that NOTHING this toon does will shock or surprise us. We were WRONG. Be ever Vigilant. He is very devious and the absence of power is killing him. He must have it - it is like a drug to him. So be warned - THEY will stop at nothing to regain their power.

[Brimack34]

The more they try to build him up the more we will bring him back down!! It is a no win for Der-Slickmister. Hey Slick WERRE HEARRR.

[Miss Marple]

I am going to flag you to a thread. Howlin pinged me about it. I think it is a good idea.

[M. Thatcher]

okay, I'm ready, sock it to me.
