Ditto.
Ditto.
What is the title of this book, and when was it published?
Final Days. Came out soon after 9-11. Hell to Pay was another great book, circa 1999.
Tha pardons were the clearest example of bribery of a high official I can remember in my lifetime.
"If Bill Clinton had been a virgin, he would still have been the most immoral president in this country's history. In exchange for illegal campaign contributions from the government of China, he allowed the Chinese to buy American technology, which now makes them capable of hitting American cities with nuclear missiles." -- Dr. Thomas Sowell, HERE |
"The Clinton administration's legacy may be that it restarted the Cold War just to perpetuate itself in office. [Thanks to Clinton] the Chinese now have everything they need [in nuclear weaponry and missile guidance technology] to make the world an unsafer place." -- Cal Thomas |
See Chip Bok's "Clinton at the Bank of China Drive Thru" cartoon HERE. |
"I have known Bill Clinton a long time and spent a lot of time with him, more than I wanted to. I have never been able to accept Bill Clinton as a mature, responsible adult." -- retiring House Majority Leader Dick Armey to Chris Matthews on the "Hardball College Tour" at George Mason University 9-25-2002 |
"I found myself marveling at Mr. Clinton's thinking, which in the short term was savvy and in the long term spoke of a kind of moral retardation." -- Peggy Noonan |
"When you walk into the presidency as a fully formed adult your first thought is, 'What should I do first and how and when?' When you walk into it with more vanity than sense, more hunger than purpose, your first thought is of what history will say of you. ... Mr. Clinton spent all his time thinking about his legacy, and by the end he had one: He was the president who spent his time thinking about his legacy -- while Osama made his plans. He wasted history's time." -- Peggy Noonan in The Wall Street Journal and HERE. |
Interview On Orange TV 7-15-2003: Rep. Dana Rohrabacher: "We didn't need to have 9-11. 9-11 happened because Rep. Tom Feeney: "In fairness, they were busy building nuclear plants for North Rep. Rohrabacher: "Right. Precisely." |
"Remember, Osama Bin Laden was offered to the United States on a silver platter and the Clinton administration said no." -- Neal Boortz, HERE and: "A former CIA official told NBC News last week that [Clinton] White House orders to spare Bin Laden's life cut the chances of getting him in half. Once again, they viewed terrorism as a law enforcement problem, worrying about Bin Laden's rights instead of just unleashing the CIA to exterminate him." -- 3-25-04 HERE |
"I've been to Sudan. And I was in Khartoum and met with some of the higher-ranking people with the Sudanese government. They told me personally I had heard that before that they actually offered [him] up to the Clinton administration that is, Osama bin Laden if they wanted him." -- Sen. Richard Shelby of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence to Chris Matthews 7-22-04 |
"At the time, 1996, [OBL] had committed no crime against America so I did not bring him here because we had no basis on which to hold him, though we knew he wanted to commit crimes against America." -- WJC as quoted by Mansoor Ijaz in an editorial in the Los Angeles Times Dec 5, 2001 |
"Yesterday we learn that Clinton has delivered a letter to the Supreme Court resigning [as an attorney eligible to argue before the Supreme Court]. Yes, he resigned resigned rather than being disbarred. No appeal. No arguments. Just submission. He tucks his tail between his legs and slouches off. "Just more of the sleazy legacy of the most corrupt, most dishonest president in |
"The Clinton impeachment wasnt about sex. It was about perjury, obstruction of justice, and an attempt by the nations number one elected official to deny a woman a day in court under a law that he signed!" -- Neal Boortz, 2-3-2001 |
"Clinton still doesn't get it. Just because most of us didn't want to see him convicted doesn't mean we all minded his being impeached. And it certainly doesn't mean we maintained any respect we might have had for him." -- Bert Rand |
"Stroke of the pen. Law of the land. Kinda cool." -- Paul Begala, personal aide and confidant of Bill Clinton, giddily advocating and enabling dictatorship in America (of which Clinton's putrid Executive Order 13083 was only an insidious part). |
"The President has kept all of the promises he intended to keep." -- Clinton aide George Stephanopolous on Larry King Live |
"We could give [YOUR money] all back to you and hope you spend it right. But I think -- here's the problem: If you don't spend it right, here's what's going to happen ... [Social Security might go bankrupt in 13 years, etc., etc.]" -- W. J. Clinton in Buffalo, NY, 1-20-99 |
"... It seemed to me emblematic of the Clinton White House, a place where opponents' FBI files were read aloud over pizza and foreign contributors with cash invited in the back door. ... Mr. Clinton's problem, his real sin--a fundamental lack of respect for his country, for its citizens, for his colleagues, for all of us. ... I believe he demonstrated that people and principles are, to him, objects to be manipulated." -- Peggy Noonan in The Wall Street Journal HERE. |
"Clinton is not the worst president the republic has had, but he is the worst person ever to have been president." -- George Will, Jan. 12, 2001 |
"Bill Clinton is like PigPen. A cloud of dirt just follows him around wherever he goes." -- Time Magazine political correspondentJames Carney on Charlie Rose 2-22-2001 |

"Bill Clinton is, without question, the most amoral, corrupt, dishonest and dangerous man ever to serve as president. FDR was just as dangerous perhaps but not as corrupt. And he was reported to have a semblance of a moral code. The people who put this cretin into office have struck a blow more severe than any enemy has been able to strike with guns in the past 225 years." -- Neal Boortz in Nealz Nuze July 11, 2000 |

From The Don Imus Show with Chris Matthews visiting on Nov. 1, 2001, the day Matthews book, Now, Let Me Tell You What I Really Think, was released: Matthews: ...all he did was use up all his political capital to get Marc Rich off. Imus: I think whats missing is hes morally and ethically corrupt. And hes Matthews: So tell me what you really think. |
Maybe Clinton Should have Prospectively Pardoned Himself A federal grand jury now is investigating whether there were direct links between Bill Clintons good buddy, Marc Rich, and Saddam Hussein. Hmm. Maybe 60 Minutes will do a big expose on this story. On the other hand, maybe theyre having snowball fights in hell right about now -- Jayson Javits, Dec. 17, 2004 |
"Bill ran after me, tackled me, threw me to the floor of the kitchen in the mansion and cocked his fist back to punch me." -- Dick Morris |
"He's the all-time self-indulgent vindictive pig." -- Neal Boortz, 1-27-2001 |

The article made me think that this was a new book, published posthumously.
Final Days was published posthumously. It had already been scheduled for release and Hillary tried to stop it from being released.
Char :)
OK, al baby. I got you down for $10.
Pardoned of what ..?? They haven't been convicted of anything.
And .. you can't "pardon" impeachment.
I've read this book - it's stunning.
I hope that the new one which is being "rushed into print" will get more publicity than Barbara's book did. Hillary is still prancing around like the Queen of Sheba.
Talk about "teflonized!" Ditto for Billery.
