EX-CLINTON AIDE: DC Renaissance Hotel's'S Sports Bar is Deification of Bush, Anti-Clinton
USNewswire via Bloomberg, no url | 2/14/03

Posted on 02/14/2003 12:24:48 PM PST by NativeNewYorker

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Ex-Clinton political aide

Bob Weiner is slamming the D.C. downtown Renaissance Hotel's new

presidential photo sports bar as a ''deification of Bush,

anti-Clinton, and thereby partisan.''

   Weiner, who served as Public Affairs Director for the White House

Drug Czar and was a White House Athletic Center board member while

Clinton was President, visited the new bar yesterday in advance of

today's (Friday) opening to see how the presidential sports pictures

looked and to offer a photo of Clinton leading a group of runners,

including DC Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton. ''I expected to join in

the celebration,'' Weiner stated.

   Instead, Weiner said, ''I saw an entrance corridor of four dramatic

George W. Bush photos, another Bush photo on a wall, and one Clinton

photo -- buried in a corner inside the actual bar, of him playing

pool. To me, and to several hotel employees with whom I spoke, the

Bush photos were disproportionate considering that Clinton is our most

recent and an eight-year president. The one Clinton photo denigrates

the spirit of enthusiastic leadership he conveyed, and the photos of

everyone else -- including Reagan and Bush I both riding horses over

fencesshow vitality and high adventure.''

   ''Clinton's sports love, as everyone knows, was running -- he told

me himself that he ran 25-30 miles a week. We offered the Renaissance

a beautiful picture -- free -- of him running, poster sized, and even

offered to quickly get a comparable outstanding frame from the

National Gallery so it would match the other quite wonderful photos of

the many other presidents the exhibit has. The exhibit manager, Bill

Englar, the hotel's Food and Beverage Manager, responded, 'I paid a

contractor, they organized it, and there's no space.' I responded with

what I felt was obvious -- 'We are not charging anything, doesn't your

contractor work for you, and here or here or here (pointing) there is

lots of space.' He then asked for a better quality photo, and I showed

him a clear original, which could be quickly re-poster-sized. But it

was clear no response by me would be adequate, especially since he

would not even look at our photo when asked several times, until I

physically held it up in front of him.''

   ''My worst fear is that because of Renaissance being a Marriott

hotel and Marriott owners' history of strong Republic allegiance,

there is a strong partisan and anti-Clinton bent in an exhibit that is

open to all DC. I know that the hotel does not only want Republican

patrons, so it is my hope they will balance the exhibit and include

photos like the one we've suggested to show Clinton's genuine

enthusiasm and the mantle of leadership he epitomized in available

sports photos,'' Weiner concluded.

''Clinton's sports love, as everyone knows, was running -- "

Yeah, either for some bloody office or other or AFTER some good-looking, big-breasted young honey.

"...he told me himself that he ran 25-30 miles a week.?

Trying to get away from all the criminal scandals he created.

Unfortunately, he was successful beyond belief in BOTH endeavors.

I don't know why Weiner is upset: We also understand this new watering hole will display a first edition copy of klintoon's newly released book.

Clintoon's book will be published by Alfred Knopf Publishing.

“Knopf” is 13th Century German for “ incredibly stupid buyer of other peoples’ garbage.” Knopf is a very old publishing house best known for such early classics as

“How to Enjoy The Inquisition” by Father Torquemada
“You Get My Point?” by Vlad the Impaler
“Guillotine Maintenance and Repair” by Citizen Robespierre

JUST OFF THE PRESSES: “Trent Lott’s Guide to Effective Extemporaneous Public Speaking,” “Keeping YOUR Man Faithful and at Home” by Hillary Rodham Clinton and “Martha Stewart’s Handbook for Profitable Investing” (includes Martha’s BONUS SELECTION: “Prison on a Budget.”)

Cumming soon to a dumpster or landfill near you!

And, speaking of "Weiners"...here's a shot of the former First Harpy that oughta make this clown smile. It certainly makes ME smile every time I see it.

Hillary seen here employing the “Lewinsky Method” while scarfing a street weenie at a political function. Bill has requested that she NOT use this technique when he is in the area lest he have to quickly repair to the nearest lavatory – usually doubled over with his hat over his lap -- to avoid embarrassing himself (like THAT is a problem for Mr. Humiliation!).

NEVER FORGET: THESE PEOPLE MUST NEVER AGAIN INFEST THE WHITE HOUSE!

Agreed:

The comlpete lack of dignity the Clintons brought to our sacred institutions must never be forgotten.

Dilettantes Gore and Clinton never ran over the long haul. Both have reverted to form, being tubs of lard.  GWBush has stayed the course. There was great article about GW and his running in Runner's World a few months ago

on running clintons...

I have to disagree with the naysayers,

Pasty thighs and piano legs notwithstanding, both clintons were, and are, in fact, perpetual runners, running from responsibility as they run in place, running with the enemy as they run afoul of the law, running scared and running short, as Dubya runs rings around them both...

He rips into jokes about President Bush's intellect as "another liberal snig that annoys me a lot these days," adding, "The fact has to be faced: the intellectual candlepower of this administration is a great deal brighter than the Clinton administration . . . [and] the level of professionalism is very much higher."

LEFT-WING TALK RADIO 2: "It's the terrorism, stupid."

 

by Mia T, 1-21-03
 

 

 
PART 1
PART 2

Hear clinton stupidity, smallness, banality, fecklessness, ineptitude, prevarication, corruption, perfidy and utter failure directly from the rapist, himself. clinton provides the perfect foil for Bush, who makes a cameo appearance or two.

Pay special attention to Dan Rather's little story about terrorism hitting the U.S. "bigtime" during the clintons' tenure.

In particular, connect the following dots: the '93 WTC bombing. a certain bin Laden protégé and clinton's admission that he passed up bin Laden. Note clinton's spurious argument for this monumental failure.

To this day, clinton seems not to understand that bin Laden is -- and was in 1996 -- an enemy of the state, not a simple criminal.

clinton still seems not to get it -- the same terrorist --the terrorist he refused to take--hit the same building in '93.

Notwithstanding this, to hear clinton tell it, his disastrous decision not to take bin Laden when offered on a silver platter by Sudan, (arguably the worst decision ever made by a president), derived from his scrupulous avoidance of abusing power and trashing laws...

Yeah, right.

 

HEAR:

 

  • the attacks on America

     

  • Dan Rather ruminating on the terrorism that came to America "bigtime" during clinton years

     

  • Dan Rather relating OBL protégé, Ramzi Yousef threat to clinton FBI that the terrorists WILL complete the job

     

  • the clinton non-response to terror

     

  • FDR response (says national security a president's raison d'être)

     

  • Bush response, "I can hear YOU...," "I [as opposed to clinton] will not wait on events, while dangers gather," etc.

     

  • Mike Moran "Osama bin Laden, you can kiss my royal Irish ass" battle cry

     

  • "go home hillary!" chant, etc.

 

hear

THE CLINTONS--AMERICA'S BIGGEST BLUNDER
Hear Bush 41 Warn Us--October 19, 1992*

hear
*Thanx to Cloud William for text and audio

 

LEHRER: President Bush, your closing statement, sir.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Three weeks from now--two weeks from tomorrow, America goes to the polls and you're going to have to decide who you want to lead this country ...

On foreign affairs, some think it's irrelevant. I believe it's not. We're living in an interconnected world...And if a crisis comes up, ask who has the judgment and the experience and, yes, the character to make the right decision?

And, lastly, the other night on character Governor Clinton said it's not the character of the president but the character of the presidency. I couldn't disagree more. Horace Greeley said the only thing that endures is character. And I think it was Justice Black who talked about great nations, like great men, must keep their word.

And so the question is, who will safeguard this nation, who will safeguard our people and our children? I need your support, I ask for your support. And may God bless the United States of America.

(Applause)

 

"Well, of course," she said. "But what is character? The sum total of who you are. The color of your skin and how you deal with it is part of your character."

hillary clinton, King Day 'A Call to Arms'

YOO-HOO Mrs. clinton!
The color of
and how YOU dealt with it is part of YOUR character.
 
 
play tape
 
The color of your rapist husband's face when he rapes. . .
and how you have dealt with it is part of YOUR character.

 

The color of Ron Brown's skin
and how YOU have 'dealt' with him is part of YOUR character.

Clinton's favorite sport was chasing, not running. 20-30 miles a day, not a week.

With Senator Ted Kennedy as political aide to his Senate and Presidential campaigns.

What Teddy needed was a driver.

Clinton's sport is XXXX rated and not appropiate for any Big Screen TV; certainly not a Sports Bar.
I rest my case.

FOFLOL. This is hysterical. I see Weiner is the source of the article. He was a rabid Clintonite when he was in the White House and apparently still is. What is the heck is this about ? "We offered the Renaissance a beautiful picture -- free -- of him running" Don't tell me they charge for his picture or that worse yet that someone would pay for one.

That picture alone speaks volumes about him and serves as a reminder of how he tried to destroy our country. I'm stunned that not one person in his entourage found it inappropriate for him to be photographed in front of that murdering communist.

He carries a picture of Clinton around with him? Oh, Brother!
