Bill Clinton is the the quintessential politician and that is his forte. He can win you over or turn you off. But he knows his craft through and through. Despite his pecadillos, he would have been re-elected had he been able to run again for office. However, there are some who are very, very tired of the Clintons.

Ah yes...Clinton popularity- the slickster wouldn't have it any other way. Keep waffling, keep ranting when your favorability ratings drop a percentage point. El Saif? Khobar Towers? USS Cole? Blackhawk Down? Now there is one heck of a leader for you! Not hard to appease when you only have to appease the Europeans, or those that envision a European Renaissance in this country during 4:00 tea hour in Cambridge. When you don't want to make tough calls, it isn't difficult to be "liked" in this world.

67% approval rating when he left office, in recent times, only Reagan may have had a higher one.
Bush is so f*&#+d up, I would not be suprised if he thought attacking Iran could get his popularity numbers at least above 50% before he leaves.

Popular with WHO?!?!?!?! I despise the man and I know about 2 people who like him. One of them is a Liberal and he admits the man was an embarassment but still loves him and would vote for him again! Brainwashed Liberals! Make me sick! Here's some info. on this "Great Presinedt you'll never see in the MSM:

BILL CLINTONS MILITARY CAREER

Bill Clinton registers for the draft on September 08, 1964, accepting all contractual conditions of registering for the draft. Selective Service Number is 326 46 228.

Bill Clinton classified 2-S on November 17, 1964.

Bill Clinton reclassified 1-A on March 20, 1968.

Bill Clinton ordered to report for induction on July 28, 1969.

Bill Clinton refuses to report and is not inducted into the military.

Bill Clinton reclassified 1-D after enlisting in the United States Army Reserves on August 07, 1969, under authority of COL. E. Holmes.

Clinton signs enlistment papers and takes oath of enlistment.

Bill Clinton fails to report to his duty station at the University of Arkansas ROTC, September 1969.

Bill Clinton reclassified 1-A on October 30, 1969, as enlistment with Army Reserves is revoked by Colonel E. Holmes and Clinton now AWOL and subject to arrest under Public Law 90-40 (2) (a) registrant who has failed to report...remain liable for induction.

Bill Clinton's birth date lottery number is 311, drawn December 1, 1969,but anyone who has already been ordered to report for induction is INELIGIBLE!

Bill Clinton runs for Congress (1974), while a fugitive from justice under Public Law 90-40.

Bill Clinton runs for Arkansas Attorney General (1976), while a fugitive from justice.

Bill Clinton receives pardon on January 21, 1977, from President Carter.

Bill Clinton becomes the FIRST PARDONED FEDERAL FELON ever to serve as President of the United States .

All these facts come from Freedom of Information requests, public laws, and various books that have been published, and have not been refuted by Clinton .

After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, President Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1995 bombing in Saudi Arabia , which killed five U.S. Military personnel, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia , which killed 19 and injured 200 U.S. Military personnel, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 1998 bombing of U.S. Embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and injured 5,000, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

After the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 U.S. Sailors, Clinton promised that those responsible be hunted down and punished.

Maybe if Clinton had kept those promises, an estimated 3,000 people in New York and Washington , DC . Who are now dead would be alive today.

THINK ABOUT IT! It is a strange turn of events. Hillary gets $8 Million for her forthcoming memoir. Bill gets about $12 Million for his memoir yet to be written. This from two people who spent 8 years being unable to recall anything about past events while under oath.

Sincerely,
Cdr. Hamilton McWhorter USN (ret)

You dont say so. He has 7 years to do this and FAILED !! Leading us to 9/11

After the 1995 bombing in Saudi Arabia , which killed five U.S. Military personnel, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

Another failure.


After the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia , which killed 19 and injured 200 U.S. Military personnel, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

Failure !!

After the 1998 bombing of U.S. Embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and injured 5,000, Clinton promised that those responsible would be hunted down and punished.

Another promise and another failure.

After the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 U.S. Sailors, Clinton promised that those responsible be hunted down and punished.

Another FAILURE !

Maybe if Clinton had kept those promises, an estimated 3,000 people in New York and Washington , DC . Who are now dead would be alive today.

I agree with this totally.


THINK ABOUT IT! It is a strange turn of events. Hillary gets $8 Million for her forthcoming memoir. Bill gets about $12 Million for his memoir yet to be written. This from two people who spent 8 years being unable to recall anything about past events while under oath.

And guess who is his largest contributor to the Clinton library of shame, yes, a Saudi Prince !! Uhmmm how nice.

He was a total failure and is neck and neck with Carter as the WORST President of our time. He has disgraced the job of the President in many ways and should be held responsible for his FAILURES to do something about the warnings during his watch.

He is a disaster of a President and a disaster of a person.
