"I said, Hillary, we need a nervous sister like Foster like we need a hole in the head.""'Interesting that you should put it that way,' said Hillary with a wink."

I couldn't either. The prose are so tedious and predictable. I wonder how many times Clinton inserted the words "I, me, or mine" in the text?

I heard that the number and values of the letters in Scrabble were originally determined by the number of times each letter appeared on a single page of a single book.

I guess it's a good thing Bill Clinton's Autobiography hadn't been published yet....

Page 19: As a kindergartner, Clinton broke his leg after trying?and failing?to jump over a rope tied from a tree to a swing set. From the resulting fear and feelings of clumsiness, he didn't learn to ride a bicycle without training wheels until he was 22.

You got to be kidding me.

None of us live to hear our own eulogies but with the release of his book BJ is experiencing the atmosphere and comments that will be made about him and his presidency when he passes on.

It's like looking into a crystal ball.

"From the resulting fear and feelings of clumsiness, he didn't learn to ride a bicycle without training wheels until he was 22."

Maybe that's why he preferred oral sex to regular intercourse. Having to get on top of a woman without training wheels must have been very scary for Bill.

Billy Boy missed a golden opportunity to open with "It was a dark and stormy night..."

It's funny you mention this. Back in August of 2001, a thread entitled "Bill Clinton's memoir as told to Free Republic," had the following entry by Freeper knarf:

".... on a cold and windy Arkansan night ..."

I thought the coincidence was pretty ironic.

Page 653: After a White House interview with Kenneth Starr, Clinton offers him a tour of the Lincoln Bedroom.

Probably tried to shake him down for a campaign contribution!

On Paula Jones, One of the Women Allegedly "Procured"

Page 596: "I hadn't sexually harassed her."

OK, if he says so, that's good enough for me!

Page 166: While in Amsterdam, Clinton declines to visit a prostitute.

Translation: While in Amsterdam, Clinton visits many prostitutes.

Another Translation: Clinton can honestly say that he didn't visit any prostitutes, because he used a call service and they came to him.

All right then, YOU tell me YOU're not scared:

Never have I found a man so deeply shallow.
