JOE KLEIN STRIKES OUT. . . AGAIN
by Mia T, Mar. 11, 2002
ill clinton is not Jack Stanton and bill clinton is not a "natural...[political] talent," -- "squandered" or otherwise -- post-9/11 apologist holdout, Joe Klein, notwithstanding.
The flawed central premise of Joe Klein's current clinton hagiography, "The Natural," is really nothing more than a convoluted retread of hillary clinton's pernicious "compartmentalization" spin -- that a proven felon and utter reprobate can remain president, that clinton can be a failed human being but a good president -- mythology designed to save her zipper-hoisted, WIDEBODY, low-center-of-gravity self by saving her rapist husband.
If nothing else, 9/11 debunks that myth.
By buying into the clintons' pernicious "compartmentalization" spin, Joe Klein makes the same error made by The New York Times when it endorsed the first clinton a second time (and the second clinton the first time)...the same error made by the feminists when they supported a sexual predator and his complicit,zipper-hoisted partner... the same error made by Doris Kearns Goodwin and those 400 other hog-and-bow tied-save-clinton, retrograde-obsessing historiographers who got all unhinged over the impeachment of clinton, claiming that it would "leave the presidency permanently disfigured and diminished, at the mercy as never before of the caprices of any Congress"... even as they dismissed the real and present--and future!! -- danger to the presidency and the country of not impeaching and removing this admittedly unfit (Goodwin), "documentably dysfunctional" (NYT), presidency-diminishing (Goodwin), power-abusing, psychopathic thug.
That Joe Klein still thinks he can, post-9/11, credibly argue that clinton ran "a serious, disciplined, responsible presidency" is testament to leftist self-delusion, indeed, to the left's utter unfitness for office. |

Nice review!

It taught me unequivically that the political class not only *believes* the polity is stoopid, but actually is heavily dependent upon that stoopidity.
The roman a clef portraits of the Cuomos and Dinkins are also priceless.

Some people are constitutionally incapable of admitting they were wrong. Klein quite clearly is one of them.
This summary: "Like A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, the story of bill clinton is the story about a society that has lost its capacity for moral choice."
Is so true it is chilling....and more frightening actually than the attacks on America by the terrorists.
Without the capacity for moral choice - especially among the power elite - there is really very little hope for this country.
However, like Elijah - who thought all was lost - God still has his people in this country! And many of them have found their voice of outrage here on FR. Yours, MiaT is a godgiven voice of outrage and repudiation of all that was and is "Clinton" - and of those who can still choose to support him/her such as Joe Klein.
Klein is a spearcarrier in the lame & pathetic legions the clintons have left behind them... used, abused, discarded, yet still carrying water for the corrupt duo from Arkansas.
Their cousins can still be found in the press and entertainment media, whining "If only...." or "but, but..." still unable or unwilling to acknowledge their shameful enablance of the most fraudulent, most corrupt, most outright criminal Administration in America's history.
Having invested far too much of themselves in the clinton's feloneous rise to power ( and ultimate irrelevance.... ) they are forever incapable of seeing their own culpability, or the vast damage that has been done to this fine country.
I cannot even feel pity for them- my dog has more character.

It is obvious to anyone who bothers to remove his political blinders. It is so patently obvious that even those whose political blinders are a permanently fixed fashion statement -- that is to say, even Hollywood -- can see it. (Just ask Whoopie Goldberg...) Bush's poll numbers are a reflection of this self-evident truth. What is manifestly obvious and confirmed on a daily basis is the plain fact that Democrats are, by definition, constitutionally unfit to navigate the ship of state through these troubled, terrorist waters. Democrats were unfit pre-9/11, but few could see it then. It was 9/11 and its aftermath that made this truth crystal clear even to the most simpleminded among us. The unwashed masses, the uninformed, the disinformed can see it now. All America can see it now. Self-preservation is kicking in, trumping petty politics at every turn. And this is why Democrat demagoguery and stupidity and sedition are achieving new lows... We are witnessing the last gasp of a political relic. The Democrat party is not merely obsolete. As 9/11 and clinton-clinton-Daschle action and inaction have demonstrated, the Democrat party is very dangerous. We must now make sure that this fact, too, is obvious to all... |
KNOWNOTHING VICTIMS RODHAM/CLINTON REVISITED

"I did not have any involvement in the pardons that were granted or not granted," insisted Sen. KnowNothing, seeming to forget her presence at the New-Square/Oval-Office schmooze that secured pardons for the four Hasidic felons who set up a phony school in Brooklyn to swindle the government out of millions intended for the poor. |
