I love Bill Clinton
I'm just seeing the Oprah rerun and I missed Sixty Minutes. Just seeing the man walk onto the stage makes my heart go pitty pat. I LOVE him! He's smart, handsome, stately...his story is the stuff of American dreams--that's why they have to quash him. The man is larger than life.

3. Yea me too...
Sure the man has multiple personalities, and I never agreed on some of his policies. But compared to what we have now, he is a saint...

5. He was great on 60 min
There was a very touching moment when he was shown some footage of his mother that he had not seen.

6. those ladies in Oprah's audience ...
... were warm for Clinton's form. They were screaming for him as if he were a rock star! Every time the camera panned across the audience, all these pretty 30-somethings were glowing orgasmically over the last pearl of wisdom to drop from the Big Dog's mouth.

He could have had any of those women in that audience!

He's a total scamp, but we can't help lovin' him. He's that dangerous, leather-jacket-clad senior boy your mother warned you against in high school -- and you made out with him in the science-lab closet anyway!!!

Hillary could have married any stable, smart, future yuppie on campus. But she saw that rakish smile in the Yale library, and the rest was history!

15. She saw him in the Yale Library because he was studying his ass off.
Nothing dangerous about a man determined to make something of himself, except when he succeeds so well certain interests are made afraid.

Bill's lucky to be breathing, they hated him so much. Goes to show how VERY important a Vice President is. They knew they'd hate Gore just as much. It occurs to me that if Gore had been inaugurated, they wouldn't have worried about shooting him, not with Lieberman.

19. Never thought of it that way, but you're right!
Edited on Tue Jun-22-04 11:48 PM by Lady Texan
Gore probably saved Clinton's life!
Soooo, can we have Howard Dean as our VP nominee??? Pretty please??? So he can watch Kerry's back?

Howard Dean would make Kerry impeachment-proof & bullet-proof for sure! :evilgrin:

20. not exactly ...
she said she REALLY fell for Bill when she noticed that he could fall asleep in class, and when the professor would ask a question, he could wake up just long enough to give a great answer, and then fall back to sleep.

Yeah, he was a man determined to make something of himself. But he's also a scamp with a capital S! Monica was the tip of the iceberg, baby!

7. I would like to see President Kerry
use Bill judisciously in helping repair all the worldwide diplomatic damage Smirky has accomplished during his dictatorship. President Clinton is a great asset to our country and the repugs know it although they don't have the courage to admit it.

17. Because you did not believe he was lying.
Edited on Tue Jun-22-04 11:33 PM by aquart
He only lied about one thing which was none of our business, and even then he kept to technical truth. Seventy million dollars later, we know he was the most honest president we've ever had.

13. Incredible how far we have descended into the depths of hell with W
We trade probably the most intelligent president (have you ever seen his fact recall abilities?) who was also extremely charismatic and a great debater for a moron red-neck who can't even speak in complete sentences.

I'll bet anybody $1,000,000 that if he could run this year he would win by a LANDSLIDE!!

18. Let us not forget...
Edited on Tue Jun-22-04 11:46 PM by Treaghon
He was our last legitimately elected president.

While Bush gives you the icky dispassionate way of speaking AT you, President William Clinton has a way of talking WITH and TO you.

I am no less exited when I see him than I was when I elected him in 1992, my first voting experience....


Oh great! Now I'm depressed.

your signatory is primo-

The movie ran through me
The glamour subdue me
The tabloid untie me
I'm empty please fill me


Mister anchor assure me,
That Baghdad is burning,
Your voice it is so soothing,
That cunning mantra of killing,

I need you my witness,
To dress this up so bloodless,
To numb me and purge me now,
Of thoughts of blaming you,

Yes the car is our wheelchair,
My witness your coughing,
Oily silence mocks the legless,
Now traveling in coffins...

The jury's sleepless
We found your weakness
And it's right outside our door

Now testify

With precision you feed me
My witness I'm hungry
Your temple it calms me
So I can carry on

My slaving sweating the skin right off my bones
On a bed of fire I'm choking on the smoke that fills my home
The wrecking ball rushing
My witness your blushing
The pipeline is gushing

While here we lie in tombs
While on the corner
The jury's sleepless
We found your weakness
And it's right outside your door

Now testify

Mass graves for the pump and the price is set

Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now controls the past
Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now?

Now testify


from Rage Against the Machine “Testify” - ca 1999
