Did you hear tonight that Bob Dole and clintoon were forming a group to raise money to help the WTC victims.
He'd do anything to get his face in front of a camera......but why would Dole hook up with X42?

Hell, he didn't even take a shot. Instead of pulling out his willie, he used his cigar. What a loser.
To: VinnyTex
He had a defining moment, but it made him the WORST presidents, not a great one. "I did not have sex with that woman.."

"American people voted for him twice." But Clinton never received a majority of the popular vote.
For all the wailing about how Bush isn't "legitimate", be advised that he received a higher percentage of the popular vote in 2000 than Clinton received in either 1992 or 1996.
You could even make the claim that more people voted for Algore than ever voted for Clinton...

Pathetic as he was as a president, he was an even more pathetic human being.
What amuses me most about Clinton is that, while during his presidency he was able to call upon consistent job favorability ratings of 50% to 55%, the polls also clearly showed that the public was very aware that he was a "intensely flawed human being". Personal approval ratings rarely budged above 25%. Now, all that Clinton has left is personal approval. He's no longer president, after all. And the fact of the matter is that this is not the kind of guy that you want as your friend -- he'd try to sleep with your wife or daughter just for the hell of it. He doesn't have the full weight of the presidency behind him anymore: He can't send out armies of flacks to defend his countless immoralities. He can't give government jobs to friends and people he owes favors to. And he can't call his spook buddies and dirty tricksters to clean up his messes anymore (a la Fort Macy Park). So few people have any use for him now. Personal approval shines through ... and in the end, Clinton will be left a broken shell of a man. The fact of the matter is that our country is damned fortunate that nothing of the caliber of the recent hijackings happened on his watch. He would have capitulated to the Palestinians (some people believe that his many overtures to Arafat were due to covert intelligence that terrorists were targeting us during his administration -- and he wanted to pacify them). He would have launched cruise missiles to nowhere -- as George Bush said (paraphrasing) "to slam into a $10 tent and hit a camel in the butt". What Clinton failed and currently fails to understand is that leadership requires more than elected office and a button to push or a phone to dial. It requires moral courage, something that he knows nothing about. He's a poll-tested, blown-dried empty suit of a man. There's nothing inside but a smarmy, cocky, two-faced, worthless conniver who confused winning elections with being a leader.

"Now, all that Clinton has left is personal approval." Bill Clinton as president, the sophomore as Commander-in-Chief.
Now he's just a sophomore. An old one...

Give me a break! His defining moment was the discovery of his DNA on an intern's dress. Made him the greatest a$$ to ever have been president. Actually, he can probably blame that little incident on the fact that he didn't have a global crisis to keep him otherwise occupied. The incontinent worm.
To: VinnyTex
Clinton finally HAS his legacy.
It's spread over the south end of Manhattan and will take about a year to complete.
BILL JUST G O A W A Y!!

"He didn't have one."Yes, he did. She sells handbags now...
To: Libloather
His defining "moment" involved a sink near the small office near the Oval Office. He'll just have to live with it.

Maybe he was trying to invent a national crisis by giving our secrets to the Chinese. I guess his timing was off.
Poor Clinton ... NOT!

I don't remember the exact source, but I saw it in a short article somewhere here on FreeRepublic (I think).

This guy is such a loser. The real losers are the people who still support him
To: clamper1797
The real losers are the people who still support him Which brings me to the question of the day: Why is Bob Dole standing next to this guy on a platform forming a charity? I'm sure that Dole thinks this is a good cause (and it is), but does he really think anything with Clinton attached to it is going to be without scandal?
To: LibertarianLiz
Which brings me to the question of the day: Why is Bob Dole standing next to this guy on a platform forming a charity? IMO Billy Boy is probably there to scope the babes. Bob Dole is probably just getting senile. Massive doses of Viagra will take their toll
