Missing Chapters of Clinton's "My Life" Exposed in New Book Tue May 10, 8:00 AM ET
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) May 10, 2005 -- Bill Clinton rose to the White House in part claiming to be a supporter of women"s rights, but a shocking new book claims to document a pattern of disturbing attacks against women that renders the former President"s claim hollow.
In "Their Lives: The Women Targeted by the Clinton Machine" (World Ahead Publishing, $25.95, ISBN 0974670138), author Candice E. Jackson documents how Bill Clinton used his political power to harass, intimidate, and terrorize women who got in his way. Whether it was assembling a smear team to attack a grief-stricken widow, threatening a reporter for her research into an Arkansas health care scandal, or hiring private investigators to bully an ex-flame's family members, Jackson says that Clinton showed no reluctance to go after any woman who inconvenienced his political career.
"This pattern of cold-blooded willingness by Clinton, his wife, and their inner circle to do anything to maintain power is clear," claims Jackson, an attorney and commentator who is also a recovering victim of domestic assault. "Their Lives," which the author says fills in missing chapters from the 950 page "My Life," debuts in stores on May 31, 2005, the same day as the paperback version of Clinton's memoir. This book features an in-depth look at eight women who crossed paths with the so-called "Man from Hope" - seven former objects of desire as well as his wife, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. Drawn from first-hand interviews and hundreds of sources, the book promises to counter Clinton's recent efforts to rehabilitate his legacy, although it does not focus on the morality of Clinton"s philandering but rather his willingness to wield his political power against his victims.
The book's publication has been hailed by the women whose story it profiles. Clinton sexual harassment accuser Kathleen Willey praises the book as "the most accurate portrayal...of the true nightmare Bill and Hillary put me through." Alleged Clinton rape victim Juanita Broaddrick says "Their Lives" is "a complete chronological account."
Commentator and author David Horowitz says, "This book connects the political to the personal in a way no one has done before. It is a must read for anyone interested in the history of our age." "Bill and Hillary Clinton showed no reluctance to do whatever it took to get the job done," Jackson says in speaking of Washington's most powerful couple. "It's important to tell the stories of the women they targeted - Americans need to know this side of the Clintons before Hillary asks us to send her back to the Oval Office."

What does everyone think of this?
Too bad Dan Rather is gone because you know he would want to have this on CBS. I guess it will be up to CNN to get the word out on this. LOL. The liberal media will ignore this just like they always have.
Surely the liberal MSM will embrace this author with fawning interviews and endless appearances - they do care so much about the well-being of women, don't they?
This is not to demean what hell these women went through, I don't want to sound insensitive BUT there are far, far more serious things that Clinton did which desperately need exposure.
It absolves the feminists from doing or saying anything more. A representative member of their coterie has done a public expose. They don't have to do another thing because he is their man.
If this was true, the lefty women's groups would be all over this. Wouldn't you think that? /barf off
I think it's great, but I don't think Ms. Jackson will get the opportunity to promote this too widely.
Yes and no. Certainly the dealings with China from selling missile technology to taking campaign money from the PRA have flown quietly under the radar. On the other hand the viciousness with which these women were treated was not lost on others such as the Gonzalez family in Miami. The key is abuse of power and it was a constant theme throughout Clinton's reign. It never hurts to bring plain examples that people can understand.
I'm not familiar with Nigel Hamilton. However, I would like to hear more of the stuff Gary Aldrich talked about in "Unlimited Access".
Don't forget the number of people turning up "mysteriously" dead. I just hope Rosen stays away from Ft. Marcy Park.
I meant Peter Paul.
I would like to hear more of the stuff Gary Aldrich talked about in "Unlimited Access".
NIgel Hamilton wrote the three volume biography on Field Marshall Montgomery and a book John F. Kennedy called "Reckless Youth". Everyone thought he was going to write the first serious book about Clinton's Presidency and it turned out to be a watered down rehash of what others had already written.
But.....you mean Katie wont have a 3 day expose with the author? whats up with that??

These would be the records that hardly anyone in Congress looked at as part of the impeachment process and subsequent non-trial.
Or maybe Sandy Burglar has already attended to them as well. ;-)
