Clinton is eager to tell his story Says writing memoirs is a way to 'come to terms' By Bob Minzesheimer USA TODAY
Bill Clinton, who's getting nearly $12 million for his memoirs, says everyone eventually should write his or her life story.
''Everybody talks about how terrible this book-writing is. I've enjoyed it,'' the former president tells C-SPAN in an interview to be shown Sunday (6:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. ET/ 3:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. PT).
''Everyone who is fortunate enough to have lived to be 50 should sit down at some point and write the story of his or her life, even if it is just for yourself, your children, your family.''
It's important, Clinton says, ''to try to come to terms with the life you lived and think about how you wish to spend whatever years are remaining.''

I live a few miles from this ugly monster of a Liebrary. Hopefully, a Tornado will help us clean up the landscape.

Oh yeah. LOL. He is self deluded and totally sociopathic, narcissistic and maybe even psychotic, as in psycopathic. He is a caricature of a president, a failure as a human being and a man who, forever, deals is how things 'appear', not how things really are.
His rudeness and arrogance (no respect for others-always late, quick to temper) stem from the scariest aspect of his personality-he has no core. There is no there there.
Life is a game to bill.
And winning, at any cost, is the only thing that keeps blood flowing in his veins.
Wonder how many people lives he has ruined or attempted to ruin, without a second thought? Bet it numbers in the hundreds.
None of this will be in his memoir, of course, but what is unspoken in his book will be the story, and what is actually written, will be a fabrication of immense and laughable proportions. Even his 'mea culpa's' will be full of whines and subltle (perhaps blatant) placement of blame upon others.
Neither klinton is capable of personal accountability, honest introspection and compassion, but both are capable of immense lying. It is their grandest achievement. And they are pros without rivals in this arena.
Unless he inculdes the FReepers at the gate going, "Bill Clinton, We have you surrounded, Drop the cigar, Step away from the intern, And come out, With your pants, Up!", it's fiction.
The downside is for advertisers trying to get my attention.
I'm still ticked off at Letterman, and CBS, for having him on, on 9/11. All 30 seconds that I watched.
Me neither! I want to read both his and Hillarys, but it's going to be a long wait till they're in the 'used' book stores!! I'm sure not giving any money to them!
Yep. Well, maybe not. In any case, you'll be able to buy them new in those "everything for a dollar" stores. Or the insurance liquidators and the like.
It really depends if the DOJ lets the publishers get away with covert bribery. I'd use whatshername's flop from the "Wheel
of Fortune" as the minimum NUMBER of *SOLD* books as the standard.
"What about fraudulent numbers?", you ask? Well, I believe the companies involved are publicly traded, so there is the SEC. And I think at least one of them is part of a company that holds public broadcast licenses. Michael Powell notwithstanding, any *fraud* convictions or plea bargains should make them unfit to hold licenses.
("Dream on", says the chorus...)
Now, THAT would be the 'appropriate' place to find their books!! LOL
Nope
She and Ol'Crusty are now one. It is a synergy that surpasses all understanding.
It probably really pisses him off that Gore lost, then the house and Senate were lost. Can you imagine how many public liebraries would have been forced to buy scores of his book? Still might happen in the RAT controlled inner cities.
