Thanks to Bill Clinton :)

bkkcoh · 06-14-2001, 07:39 AM

Thank you for introducing us to Gennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, Monica Lewinski and about two dozen other names that we might not have met and known otherwise.

Thank you for allowing a war hero and the author of one of the most successful military campaigns in military history to leave the presidency because, no matter how successful he was, we, in all our moral outrage, just wouldn't tolerate someone who would lie to the American people by promising "no new taxes" and then going back on his word. We certainly can't have a liar in the White House, now can we?

Thank you for showing all the men and women in America that sexual harassment in the work place, and on the job, is okay as long as it involves powerful middle-age executives and the young women half their age under their power. It is, after all, a "private matter."

Thank you for revealing that the agenda of the National Organization for Women only includes some women. Women like Anita Hill, and not women like Paula Jones, Monica Lewinski, et. al.

Thank you for allowing us to come to the realization that "sexual relations" is not clearly defined after all. And all these years, I thought that "oral sex" really had something to do with sex! (Imagine!) (Or is it Oral Sex when you talk about it . . .?)

Thank you for giving us a president who discusses his choice of underwear with teenagers. We always wondered if presidents wore boxers or briefs.

Thank you for installing a man who reminds us of those good old days of pot smoking (without inhaling, of course) and war protesting.

Thank you for showing us that the ridiculous plot of the movie, "Wag the Dog," could really be plausible after all.

Thank you for reintroducing the concept of "impeachment" to a new generation that missed the discussion surrounding it the last time it was brought up.

Thank you for curing me of my addiction to the evening news.

Thank you for reminding us that the government that gave us the Internal Revenue Service and welfare, also lusts for control of the greatest health care system in the world.

Thank you for reminding us that the FBI, who has a file on millions of Americans, including myself, can give those files to people powerful enough to demand them.

Thank you for reminding us that, when all is said and done, character really, really does matter.

And, in comparison: Thank you for making Dan Quayle look like the smartest man in America. Thank you for making Jimmy Carter look competent. Thank you for making Gerald Ford look graceful. Thank you for making Richard Nixon look honest. Thank you for making Lyndon Johnson look truthful. Thank you for making John Kennedy look moral. Thank you for making Al Gore look positively presidential.

Thank you for reminding us of the importance of term limits.

And really, Thank you not once, but twice! Why, if it was not for you, instead of the current, interesting discussion all over the television networks and newspapers, we would be focused on a whole slew of trivial matters such as giving secrets to China in exchange for campaign contributions, global defense, the economy, nukes in North Korea, genocide in Africa & Kosovo, the containment of terrorism, and all those other boring topics.

So, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Since Bill Clinton took office, here are some of the good things that have happened: 1) 72 House and Senate witnesses have pled the Fifth Amendment. 2) 17 witnesses have fled the country to avoid testifying. 3) 19 foreign witnesses have refused to be interviewed by US investigative bodies. 4) 19 charges from Whitewater investigations, 4 convictions from Whitewater investigations, 8 imprisonment's from Whitewater investigations….. 55 total charges in all Clinton scandals, 32 total convictions (so far) in all Clinton scandals, 14 total imprisonment's (sofar) in all Clinton scandals. 5) 938 overnight stays at the White House for Clinton supporters. 6) $48 million - cost of Starr's 5-Year investigation. 7) $49 million - cost of Clinton's 10 day trip to China.

Yes, it's been an interesting 8 years for "the most ethical administration in the history of the Republic." Thanks....

Boring!:eek:

Very nice, Brian!

It's funny how the dem's and the liberal media have jumped all over the Bush Daughter's college drinking wow's. I guess when you have had more political fodder than any reporter could handle during an 8 yr. period, you'd be scrambling for something scandalous to write about during this current administration.

Politicians and The Media - I can't think of two groups more deserving of one another.

<i>Politicians and The Media - I can't think of two groups more deserving of one another.</i>

hehehehe ;)

Neither of them actually <i>do</i> anything - they just blab and expel hot air on the actions of others...

bkkcoh · 06-14-2001, 08:15 AM

sd4chiefs,

Are we a liberal and don't like the fact that this stuff was brought up to remind you of how your guy's last 8 years was.

This almost makes Bush seem like an [b]angel[/b], even with his daughters...

;)

Alton deFlat · 06-14-2001, 08:16 AM

Damn! Pretty large soapbox there. How can you sleep at night? :p

bkkcoh · 06-14-2001, 08:20 AM

Chief4ever,

No it is just amazing how soon people forget about the crap that went on the previous administration.

As far as I am concerned, both parties are extremely corrupt. There are only a couple of republicans that I would even give the time of day to.

Aren't you liberals, not necessarily you Chief4ever
, the ones that say don't take things so seriously.
;)

Both sides need to lighten quite a bit.

06-14-2001, 08:21 AM

I would like to have a beer or two with the Bush Twins ;)

they sound like fun girls...the kind i would have hung out with in college.

~wouldn't buy a milkbone for chelsae.

HC_Chief · 06-14-2001, 08:22 AM

LOL! :D

bkkcoh · 06-14-2001, 08:23 AM

Iowanian,

Almost everyman's fantasy, 2 women and twins.... lol

Alton deFlat · 06-14-2001, 08:52 AM

Sorry Brian, I meant no disrespect. Just pokin' fun.
:) ;) :p :D

Mark M · 06-14-2001, 09:26 AM

bk--
First, let me say very well done. The fact this man is not in jail still astounds me. He was a crook, a liar, a cheat and just a basically bad person who has set a terrible example.

HOWEVER, I do have one question (and remember, I'm not a liberal, just someone who feels as though he can see things from an independent's perspective) ...

[b]When will all of you people get the fuck over it?!?!?!?!?![/b] The guy is gone, alright? He's no longer president. He's finished ... done ... gone ... he has left the building ... buh-bye ... don't let the door hit ya where the dog should've bit ya. Unless you live in New York you don't have to deal with him anymore.

If the media goes after Bush for every little thing, well, what comes around goes around. Fact is, everyone (liberal, conservative, indy, whatever) can thank a [i]Republican[/i] by the name of Richard Nixon for creating an atmosphere where all respect for the office of President of the United States has been thrown out the window. I have more respect for Nixon because he actually admitted he was wrong, however.

But every president, if you looked deep enough and long enough, has a metric ton of skeletons hiding in a closet somewhere. It's just that, since Nixon, everyone goes out of their way to find them. Some are worse than others (Clinton being the King of the Crooks), but [i]all[/i] of them got where they are by being ruthless in one way or another.

Sorry ... I understand your point. And I mean no disrespect to you. I'm just getting sick and fucking tired of hearing (or rather, reading) about this every single month.

ck_IN · 06-14-2001, 10:41 AM

The only problem with that Mark is that he isn't gone. I turned on CNN last night and was treated to the sight of breathless media coverage of how the Slickster had insinuated himself on someones wedding. Another story told me how he and Chel had joined the NY YMCA.

He's not gone because A) he doesn't want to be gone, and B) his lapdogs in the media don't want him to be gone.

Reagan left the office and became a private citizen. Yet we were treated to an endless barrage of revisionist history, that slandered one of the greatest presidents in American history.

The Clinton years must not be forgotten, and must be shown for the parade of sleaze and corruption that they were.

DaWolf · 06-14-2001, 10:47 AM

It appears the "American people" don't really care either way. I was just reading about a poll where at this point only 29% of Americans feel Bush should be reelected.

Looks like W's going to have to turn up the entertainment factor if he wants to capture people's imagination and not bore the "American people". It sure didn't hurt President Clinton... :)
