and promoting his new range of Clintagra male performance products which enable middle-aged men to maintain erection for two full terms.

Absolutely ROFLMAO!!!!!

Today, of course, the Clintons are back sleeping together, even if only at the Reagan funeral .....

haha ! Good Steyn article.

ROFL!

Thanks for the ping to a great piece!

Why, you wonder, would they want to go through one more summer season of Monica and Paula and all the rest? Because, so his defenders have convinced themselves, it makes them look good: unlike the Bush administration with the scandal of Abu Ghraib and torture, in the Clinton administration the biggest scandal was about oral sex. Say what you like, but, in the Clinton era, the only naked guy with women's panties on his head and a dog leash round his neck would have been the President breaking in the new intern pool.

ROFL !!!

But Clinton is what you wind up with when you have Reagan's communication skills but nothing to communicate: you're left with pure celebrity - Tina Brown's "heat" - and celebrity depends on living presence. You can't go away, because the heat fades instantly.

Brilliant. Two eras, captured in a sentence.

Steyn is not like Churchill. He writes most like another light from your storied island: Chesterton.

PRICELESS.

No word on whether the president also made Dan wear the Monica beret and the little blue cocktail dress, but from the pre-released excerpts it sounds highly likely.

No, Dan was dressed that way before Bill even showed up.

Thanks for the ping!

Thanks, Pokey! I really needed it this afternoon!

He took a week off as a mark of respect for the late President Reagan and his numbers inched up. If he had taken another week off as a mark of respect for the late Ray Charles, he could have opened up a clear lead. If he took the summer off as a mark of respect for the late Sir Peter Ustinov and the late Queen Juliana of the Netherlands, he would be heading for a landslide.

If you think a great political party should be a star vehicle for a guy who won't get off the stage, fine. But, if you don't, then it is time, as Bill Clinton used to say, to move on. Monica's no longer on her knees. There's no reason why anyone else should be.

The Democrats seem smitten by Bill..never could see what they saw in him...maybe you need to be a member of the downtrodden to find him impressive. BTW Great to keep seeing your name on a regular basis...missed your posts, Big Guy.

[Dr.Deth]

Best. Steyn. Ever.

[Dr.Deth]

Gee, right outta the George Romero cult film classic, "Night of the Living Dead." Just like the ghouls.....you beat back Clintonoid and the Dumbocrats, but they keep coming back

Well, at least they're representative of their chief voting demographic.

I really think I should consider bringing forward a suit against the toons book title

Bump for later read
