They don't get it over at DU. They are posting excerpts from this thread. I also found this gem.
The vast right wing has finally taken it's toll on President Clinton Stress is an awful thing and I think President Clinton is a very sensitive man. For eight long years they drew his blood and it had to be very stressful. They way it affected his family, etc., had to have broken his heart. The way they tried to destroy his reputation, much the same way they are doing to Kerry right now, had to be a very bitter pill to swallow. His insides must have been churning. The press is now referring to his bad eating habits, etc. (of course) but I think they contributed to his illness more than the food he ate. I personally could never figure out how he had to stamina to keep on fighting. I love him and I'm angry at what they did to him. Today's news just brought back all the memories of how terrible he was treated. I couldn't bear it if we lose him.
Somebody should inform the DU folks that it is their types who see this in a political light.
There is a DEM in our office who said that this could be political tactics by the DNC to take attention away from Bush and slow the bump he gets out of the Convention.
He pointed out how the Clinton's knew about this yesterday...Yet Hillary still took off on a speaking (campaign) run this morning..instead of going to the hospital with her husband.
While that may mean Hillary is a heartless b!tch.....I don't think the DNC would stoop to that level.
Of course..if I see some of those Doctor's have an increase in Bank accounts, houses, and cars......
then I congratulate the Dem in our office for knowing scum when he sees it.
Another guy in our office said..."I question the timing of this".
Thanks for sharing that. Like Cargo Cults, one intellectually knows that such bizarre belief systems exist, but never expects to encounter them in real life.
