White powder found in Bill Clinton mail [CNN]
NEW YORK (AP) -- Former President Bill Clinton's office was briefly evacuated after a worker opened a package containing a suspicious powder, police said.

A Secret Service agent assigned to the Manhattan office opened the package Tuesday morning, police said.

A letter and a vial of powder were inside. Preliminary tests were negative for anthrax.

1. not much surprise..

...after "they" burned down his childhood home and began erecting a tax-funded "anti-Clinton" library in Little Rock.

Bastards.

16. What an abomination.
I looked up the "Anti-Clinton LIEbrary", as they so hatefuly put it.

This is unbelievable.

I cannot believe the depths to which neocons go in their eternal hatred for all things Clinton.

Can't he sue them for defamation or something?

One thing is for sure, someone should get to work on the Bush Family Evil Empire LIEbrary right away if that is the way they want to immortalize their President.

Sheesh.

6. The asshole morning jock at Orlando's Clear Channel wannabe...
...joked about it not being anthrax, but implying it was coke, since "we ARE talking about Clinton, here". I yelled at the radio, "nobody has ever, EVER accused WJC of drug abuse of any kind, you moron!" but it's shit like that the average yahoo takes in stride without question. Yes, I sent an e-mail to WDBO.

12. And did you hear about Ronald Reagan University
that will be built near Denver? If someone wanted to build William Jefferson Clinton University, there would be a massive hue and cry and people suing to enjoin such building. The Repugs would be out in force. Why don't the Dems complain about this institute of LOWER learning??
