He [Bill Clinton] was polite, but not kind.
It's more than just not insulting...
The presidency is an institution. The president is one man, and should be treated as such.
When the "institution" of the presidency is tarnished by criminal and/or low-class behavior on the part of an individual president, there is no longer any need to pretend the b@astard is anything other than a low-class jack@ss or an outright criminal.
The agent was at his post one day when Hillry Clitnon came by for the first time. The agent could not contain himself being the gentleman he is and says to Hillary Clinton "morning ma'am". To which Hillary Clinton replied "f off".
Besides all the things wrong with the Clintons the most interesting thing is that their marriage is such a fake, a farce and a sham. It's a joke and it's common knowledge that they have not slept in the same room for years. When Clinton was in the White House Bill and Hillary never even stayed in the same hotel room.
We can't have the Clinton's near the White house again. They are much more disfunctional than a queer that gets drunk and talks dirty to 16 year old bboys.
Not at all, but the 'damage' you think may happen would be outweighed by the fact that the damage that those two have been doing would be stopped.
South America. Chile maybe?
What are you talking about they do. Lady Bird Johnson still has Secret Service and most Americans either don't even know who she is or if they do, they are unaware that she is still alive. The law was changed in the 90s that presidents AFTER Clinton would only get ten years, but I'm fairly certain that in the wake of the War on Terror that will be changed.
Would it? Really?

I understand your point, but would like to take it a step further. I personally believe we can handle a woman president or even a "b*tch" president...what we can't handle is a president as ruthless and leftist as this deceptive woman "b*tch" who masquerades as "centrist".
We dare not give out personal information about them...or enemies will try and exploit it if they can. Exploiting common decency by itself is not something they can do of course...but knowing that the President is prone to hug certain personnel, or go to certain aircraft and tell them thank you on a regular basis can give an enemy a leg up on his movement and likely activities which will let them have more opportunity to attack or get at him.
It is my understanding that they all still do...and should.
"I heard very much the same about GHW Bush and Barbra. I had heard Barbra referred to as 'the Grandma everyone wished they had'."
Back in the mid-90s, I had an Air Force NCO working for me who had spent some time on the White House Comm staff during the Bush 41 years. Whenever asked, she made of point of saying, "we're not allowed to discuss their personal lives" [meaning the Bush family], but she was willing to tell one story. She said she was on a team laying fiber optic cable at the Kennebunkport compound, and in Maine it gets cold in the wintertime. She said all of a sudden, everybody behind her stopped talking, so she stood up in the middle of the ditch and looked behind her over the dirt bank -- and there was Barbara Bush (alone) bringing the crew a tray of mugs and a big pot of hot chocolate...
When was this originally written?
It definately isn't new.
See #105.
The Democrat Eugene McCarthy endorsed Reagan in 1980. When asked why, he replied: "Because Reagan will not confuse the president with the presidency."
I think that is where most of this comes from. The Predidents make contact with a lot of people during their 4-8 years. You can not be on guard 24/7 all the time. You personality will come thru. If you slam someone or show kindness it is noticed and shared. I doubt these stories come from just SS or 1 or 2 people. It's probably stories that have been shared by many.
I've often wondered what photos the KGB took of Bill when he went to Moscow during the time he was allegedly at Oxford. I'm especially curious to know who or what else was in these photos...
