I suspect that if the Arkansas Hillbillies continue with the smear campaign, Global Crossing and Terry McAufful will undergo EXTREME Investigation for Insider Trading, Stock Malipulation and Illegal Loans. Terry may soon learn what being a close friend of the Clintoons is all about. I say keep running your mouth Terry and soon you will be broke and wearing a Jump Suit much Like Mr. McDougal wore! Of course that is all IF GW allows it.
I doubt that even if scumbag read my statement he could care less about what I think, since he now belongs to the ages, he's still the most arrogant and foul human being since Hitler, Togo, Stalin and 'fill in the blanks'.
I still get a lot of enjoyment repeating in a public forum, where there are many other Patriots, how I feel about him and that old woman that is laughingly referred to as his "wife".
It's no secrect that McAuliffe remains Clinton's slave, he does what he's told. Clinton is drowning in his battle for a legacy and "attempts" such as this are efforts to improve the feeble odds. McAuliffe is putting the gun to his own party for donations as a way around soft money limitations and deflecting Gore's biggest donors to the party for Hillary in 2004. Now he's in Vegas trying to convince the world that 9/11 was Bush's fault.
Cripes!! I hope not. My blood ran cold when I thought of it.
The good folks in Arkansas did try to warn us Libertina, however our liberial news media wouldn't show what they were saying and what all had happened in Ark.
The only way their voices were heard was from "talk radio". They were telling about klinton using drugs and his brother Roger...about all his women...(Gennifer Flowers was telling about klinton telling her to lie about their affair & she told of all his other women)...we knew about folks that turned up dead who knew to much about the klintons...
Here's just a few of the things we knew about before he was elected...thanks to "talk radio" and the local folks:
They said the only good thing about him running for President was he wouldn't be thier Governor anymore.
(1) Conspired with David Hale and Jim McDougal to defraud the Small Business Administration of $300,000.
(2) Used State Police for personal purposes.
(3) Abused his position as governor to extort sexual favors from employees.
(4) Directed State Police to fabricate incriminating evidence against political opponents: Steve Clark, Terry Reed, and Larry Nichols.
(5) Knew about drug importation and distribution by a friend and campaign contributor, Dan Lasater.
(6) Allowed drug money to be laundered through ADFA.
(7) Appointed and protected Arkansas Medical Examiner Fahmy Malak who repeatedly obstructed justice by declaring murders as "suicides" or "accidents...like the boys on the railroad tracks!"
(8) Has never accounted for his actions during 40 days behind the Iron Curtain during the Vietnam War.
We heard all about this from the good folks that had been scammed:
Excerpt from "Partners in Power", Roger Morris, Page 376
Advertising in publications like Mother Earth News and targeting low-income retirees and senior citizens looking for pleasant rural property to live out their years, the Clintons and McDougals always made a point of offering what seemed to first glance the most attractive terms. "Poor man's real estate financing", as a local lawyer called it, the deals appeared to be the Whitewater application of Diamond Jim's "populist banking" or Bill Clinton's own perennial claim to be a champion of consumers.
Elderly couples on fixed incomes might buy lots for low or token down payments, with no credit checks or appraisals and only modest monthly installments at low interest. Many did just that.
They were generally retired blue-collar workers from Texas, Missouri, or Oklahoma, as well as Arkansas, husbands and wives planning to build a small fishing cottage or a place where grandchildren could come.
Commonly they used the bulk of their savings for money down and barely scraped together monthly payments. It was they who provided much of the $300,000 that Whitewater collected in lot sales between 1979 and the summer of 1990. But what began as a modest dream often ended in painful nightmare.
Behind the Whitewater advertising lure was the fine print of a harshly punitive real estate contract. If the elderly buyers defaulted on their monthly installments for more than thirty days they found that all their previous payments were classified merely as "rent" and that they had no equity in the land AT ALL, regardless of how much they had put down or paid in.
The results could be devastating. Clyde Soapes, a grain-elevator operator from Texas, put $3,000 down and faithfully made 35 montly payments of $244.69 to the Clintons and McDougals, altogether just short of the $14,000 price of the lot. When he fell desperately ill in 1987, however, he could no longer make his payments and quickly lost the land and all his previous investment.
Soapes was a typical case. More than half those who bought Whitewater lots from the future president, his wife, and their extravagant partners would lose their land and all their equity payments. Partial records showed at least 16 different buyers paying in more than $50,000 and never receiving property deeds.
Meanwhile Whitewater carried on a flourishing traffic in repossessions and resales, selling some lots over and over when aged buyers faltered or when someone else simply came along and unilaterally bought out the purchasers and took the land by completing the payments.
Typically, Clyde Soapes's planned fishing retreat was resold to a couple from Nevada for $16,500, then taken back again after only a few payments, and resold to yet other buyers - all for the same middling but pitiless profit wrung from the struggling and the old. "That is clearly not a very consumer-oriented method of selling at all", an American Bar Association real estate expert would say.
Others were less delicate. "They screwed people left and right", said a local businessman who watched the sales.
"Taking advantage of a bunch of poor old folks on a land deal ... The future President and the First Lady. That ought to be the REAL Whitewater scandal".
We never heard anything about these things from ABC....NBC....or CBS...who should have been reporting on all the dirty dealings happening in Arkansas!!

Unfortunately, the power they wield was given to them, by ourselves. The American electorate foolishly let these craven criminals into office. The Clintons have cynically manipulated law and the system in their grasping for power and to escape justice.
Now it is up to us to end their reign of corruption. The demonic element is their lack of ethics and conscience, and their ultimate agenda. We must fight them harder than they can abuse their office and position with the public. They have given us the means to do this, we must continue to make ALL of the Clinton scandals and crimes common knowledge, and thereby necessarily disobey Bush's admonitions to adopt a "new tone." The Clintons must forever be branded with the lies, fraud, corruption, and Federal crimes they have committed. We are doing our part here to make sure knowledge of those crimes remains widely publicized, and must continue to do so until they are no longer a threat.
Even Hitler's luck ran out after a while.

Remember the movie Seconds? Using that technique, he can replace any President-elect, Democrat or Republican, who resembles him in any way and serve out two more terms. He won't even have to campaign.
I agree...if Bush wanted to play a little hardball he could easily have both Clintons scurrying for their rat holes. (No offense to rats intended)
