'He stood up to them and beat them. And he beat them like a yard dog.'
Just published: The Death of American Virtue: Clinton vs. Starr by Ken Gormley.

The author interviewed former President Clinton who is still angry and bitter at the "vast right-wing conspiracy" that tried to bring him down.

Said Clinton: "They're on a crusade. God has ordained them to crush the infidels... Ken Starr was their errand boy, and he danced to their tune, just as hard as he could dance."

He adds: "Yeah, I will always have an asterisk after my name, but I hope I'll have two asterisks: one is 'they impeached him,' and the other is 'He stood up to them and beat them. And he beat them like a yard dog.'"

7. Well, he could have gone that *one* step further:
Which would have read "He beat them like a red-haired stepchild."

14. Love Clinton. LOVE HIM. But what exactly was he trying to accomplish by lying?
On the one hand, it obviously was a private matter. On the otherhand, if you lie to our own wife, and about something as small as an affair, just to save face with her, why wouldn't you lie to all Americans about something bigger to save face with them? I think the guy set himself up to not be trusted by lying about something so small.
