LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Bill Clinton won the second Grammy Award of his career on Sunday, when he was honored in the spoken word category for his best-selling memoir "My Life."

Clinton, who was not present to accept his award at the Los Angeles Convention Center, also won a Grammy last year in the spoken word for children category. His wife, U.S. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton won a spoken word Grammy in 1997 for her memoir "It Takes A Village."

The immoral heaping praise upon the amoral doesn't affect the moral.

This is the same entertainment industry that was bestowing Michael Moore awards during the last election, so why should any of us be surprised? It's still sickening, though...

Make me vomit. This reprobate is typical of the Hollywood idols. As criminal and anti-American as they get. Enjoy this Hollywood -- if it were not for your money, you would be sleeping in a cardboard box in San Francisco...

He is the gift that just keeps on giving....

It shows the politics behind all these awards as well. The Grammys and Oscars have become sideshows for political posturing.

Well, when I read this:

Clinton, who was not present to accept his award at the Los Angeles Convention Center, also won a Grammy last year in the spoken word for children category.

...all I could think of was Bill talking dirty to some 16 year old.
