Found this the other day and thought it was funny.
What is so funny about that ? To laugh at an ex- president that actually DID something for this country??.....and speaking of money, there was actually NO budget deficit under Clinton--If "3" is the magic number for you, then get an education and ...think 3 trillion in debt by President Bush.

He rode on Reagan's shirt tales with economics, and did nothing but disgrace the US.

Disgrace the US --in who's eyes??---not the eyes of the World--Thankfully, in 2008 Hillary will skillfully utilize Bill to help us reconnect with everyone else in the World that Bush has alienated in the last 7 years.
It is time to put the Bill Clinton/Monica "episode" to rest--everyone need to put their own sexual repression, narrow mindedness, and sanctimony to rest--there are real problems, real terrorist, real dangers out there!

Well if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and waddles like a duck, I guess its a fish?

When the Bill and Monica deal went down (sorry), I was outraged and righteous about the whole thing. Bdarg and I argued endlessly about his guilt or innocence. When he came on TV apologizing, I jumped up on the bed and did a victory dance, as in "I was right- he did it! Na na na na boo boo!"
Now, all I can think of is, did all that really matter? As a country, we have so many more serious things to worry about than Bill's sex life. The jokes are tired, the current problems are real.

With Hillary running, it's all going to be current affairs again. I for one, don't like having to learn the lesson over again the second time!

[FONT=verdana,arial,helvetica]The Outstanding Public Debt as of 17 Aug 2007 at 03:07:32 AM GMT is:
[/FONT]

[FONT=verdana,arial,helvetica]The estimated population of the United States is 302,727,003
so each citizen's share of this debt is $29,620.30.
The National Debt has continued to increase an average of
$1.43 billion per day since September 29, 2006!
Concerned? Then tell Congress and the White House!
So which would you rather have....a President that gets an occasional BJ, or
A fool that creates this type of debt for you and your kids?Not too mention over 3700+ killed in an area that didn't cause Sept. 11th

Yeah, the debt is bad, and Bill lost his nerve and didn't nab Osama when he had the chance...blah, blah, blah. NEWSFLASH!!! NEITHER BUSH, REAGAN OR BILL CLINTON IS RUNNING FOR ANY OFFICE!!! Jeez almighty

Actually a Clinton is running for office, same old story to me.

Yes, A Clinton, not THE Clinton;she aint he! We already have entrenched opinions regarding both of them, rehashing the same crap ad nauseum about Bill serves no purpose but to distract from what Hillary stands for.

Funny, I understood that Hillary was the mind behind Bill. So, what we had with Bill, we'll have with Hillary, except that Bill will be bored and on the prowl even more!

Great post jdarg!

Goodness that got nasty rather quickly. Let's not forget Bill isn't running and punishing Hillary for Bills' character is silly. I'm not at all like my exhusband, nor am I blamed for his actions. My ex lied about women too, just like Bill, Newt and Guiliani. Newsflash...politicians lie, and cheat, some even steal your social security surplus to cover their screwed up budgets. If we are going to blame a spouse for the others screw ups will we hate Laura because of the Iraq lie; or because her husband mismanaged our money leaving us with a huge debt and yet another social security crisis by misappropriating it for the general fund.
Seems silly to blame them. Laura didn't make Bush do the things he did. If you don't want to vote for Hillary fine, but look at her, not her husband.

Actually, I think she did! I think that she is the real control over the white house! Just look at those eyes.....She has to be an alien or the devil herself......Dick and King George are just her puppets....;-)

When he came on TV apologizing, I jumped up on the bed and did a victory dance, as in "I was right- he did it! Na na na na boo boo!"Exactly. Well, somewhat. I still have a problem with him lying under oath, and lying to us, the public, as he waved that finger, as he sat next to his wife, saying that he did not have sexual relations with that lady, Ms Lewinski. If he will lie about unimportant things, it makes me wonder what big stuff he will lie about. The entire event also took everyone's attention away from Pres. Clinton sending in troops to attack Iraq.

Funny how everyone forgot about that. Not much different than everyone forgetting that we forgot about Osama Bin Laden after we went into Iraq. Nice distraction. Forget about Monica and Bill or any of the other girls he was reported to be screwing at the time. What about the idea of Bill selling tickets to the Lincoln Bedroom, and weapons intelligence to Communist China? Gas prices were lower, taxes were higher, stock market was booming, etc. However, I'm not convinced that the aforementioned are directly controlled by the US President. Being the leader of one of the most powerful countries in the world should come with some sense of loyalty, ethics and morals, and frankly, I don't see much of that in any of today's candidates running for that office.
I doubt we will see someone fitting my ideal of a President anytime in the near future. They are all puppets anyway, whose strings are being pulled by big business. The Congress and Senate are not much different.

You summed it up right there. We don't have a goverment by the people, for the people any longer. Welcome to corporate America!

Interesting point about Corp. Government.
They say the Science fiction of today is the reality of tomorrow...
Ever notice how so many movies that take place in the future show
the controlling authority to be a Company/corporation rather than elected government?
Hmmmmmm
advance programming?
we retort, you deride

And I am pretty sure he won't be President, either.;-) Speaking of Rudy...I just finished reading the Vanity Fair article about his latest wife, Judith...
