An Intervention For Bill Clinton?
Fox News | June 1, 2008 | RetSignman

Posted on 06/01/2008 10:44:10 AM PDT by RetSignman

I heard a story on Fox News that members of Clinton inner circle had planned an 'intervention' with Bill Clinton and he was not happy with it.

It was supposed to have been taken place because of his lifestyle on the road and the many 'encounters' with women. Allegedly, the situation was becoming dangerous.

I think we should all remember that a story like this never gets out unless the Clinton machine wants it out.

In my opinion, the Clinton machine is going for the ultimate 'pity party' for Hillary to boost her chances for nomination. They are so desperate that they had to concoct this 'story' even when everyone in the universe already knows what a sleaze bag he really is.

Get out the popcorn, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

The article that was mentioned on FOX was the upcoming Vatity Fair article regarding Clinton. It is on Drudge this morning. The details are on page three.

Thank you, I guess Vanity Fair isn’t above getting the ball rolling for Hillary’s Big Cry Fest.

I read the first page of the article, it largely deals with Bill’s continued association with rich low-lifes. It’s written by Dee Dee Meyer’s husband, and strikes me as no big deal.

It’s in the article “What’s the matter with Bill Clinton”

So he’s still messing around despite his staged affection for his entree back into the WH aka wife. Old news...except you’d think he’s getting a little old for all this.

Why so many women ever wanted this man I couldn’t figure out. Not my type I suppose.

I'm still reading the 8 page article. Interesting it's written by Dee Dee Myer's husband, who claims she is not a source for this artcle..(LOL)..

I have to leave the house for a while...darn it!

BTW, it isn't that we haven't noticed Clinton is losing it. This just reinforces it.

I think it will become a big deal once the clinton’s start to react to the article to draw attention to it.

I see hillary filing papers.

“it largely deals with Bill’s continued association with rich low-lifes. “

Clinton associating with rich guys — bad. Obama associating all his life with Marxists, radical Muslims, and America haters — not worthy of news. (according to the MSM).

I am the last person who wants to defend Bill Clinton, but this smells like an Obama dirty trick to add another nail to Hillary’s coffin, forcing her to quit.

Bill Clinton did respond immediately.

Bill Clinton Fights Back Against Brutal Vanity Fair Article

http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/06/01/bill-clinton-fights-back-against-brutal-vanity-fair-article/

The Office of President Bill Clinton responded with fury Sunday to a Vanity Fair article that attacks the former president and suggests he is out of control personally and consumed by “cavernous narcissism.”

“Clinton was apparently seeing a lot of women on the road.”

It depends on what the meaning of "seeing" is.

Besides, Obama sees dead people. :)

Well, that didn’t take long did it? The clinton’s know how to draw attention to a piece to get it rolling in the MSM.

What a boon this is going to be hillary, not only will she get the biggest pity fest in history but if she files separation papers, like I suspect, she will appear strong and vow to fight back and ‘not take it anymore’.

For eight years and more, when Todd Purdom wasn't leading the cheers for Der Schlickmeister, he was making apologies for his more egregious behavior.

Now, after eight years of Bush, the scales have dropped from Purdom's eyes. At last, Purdom sees Clinton for the corrupt narcissist he was -- not the charming, charismatic, consumately adept politician that he wrote about.

Just one more contortion on the way to raising Obama and burying Hillary...

With Hilary up against someone who places the victim card/entitlement card on a daily basis she simply has to go for the nuclear option and portray herself as the poor, oppressed victim of the Philanderer-in-Chief.

Sorry. I lost track of who’s on the ever growing “list”. It’s a crappy magazine anyway.

There is a time for an intervention and there is a time to say to heck with ‘em. Billy boy can't have an intervention after he is dead. Give it up already. The man is a scum sucking white headed turd.

"I found myself asking again and again, What’s the matter with him?"

He drinks too much. Intervention is associated with alcoholism.

Dude, I slogged through the eight pages. Vanity and almost fair. Good, if too long, and still buttkissing in parts. Other than that, healthwise, it sounds like Ole Bubba is just about ready for a sickening, vomit inducing Pray-A-Thon thread here on Free Republic.
