"If you pose a threat to this President, you're not merely a political adversary — you're clearly a bimbo, homosexual, a homophobe, alcoholic, moron, sexual harasser, crook, dupe, fellow traveler, embezzler, or even a murderer." So wrote Washington bureau chief Thomas DeFrank and political reporter Thomas Galvin of the New York Daily News in 1997 about William Jefferson Clinton, a perjurer, misogynist and serial adulterer who maintained a "war room" that specialized in character assassination to put down the numerous "bimbo eruptions" (a phrase coined by former Clinton aide Betsey Wright) that punctuated his presidency.
Back in the day, Mr. Clinton and his many surrogates — Leon Panetta, Rahm Emanuel, John Podesta, Erskine Bowles and Chris Dodd, to name several — perfected the politics of personal destruction, which traces is modern origins to Sen. Ted Kennedy's borking of a conservative Supreme Court nominee. The most infamous Clinton henchman, of course, was James Carville, who will be remembered forever for his "nuts-or-sluts" defense against charges from Clinton accuser Paula Jones: "Drag a hundred-dollar bill through a trailer park, you never know what you'll find."
Throughout their political careers, recalled one-time Clinton aide Dick Morris in 2008, Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton "used whatever slimy tactics they felt they needed: ruining reputations; invading the privacy of their targets by dispatching private detectives to comb their records and troll through their trash; lying about their opponents; blackmailing and threatening women who dared to say yes — or even no — to Bill Clinton; releasing confidential employment records."
Now a quarter century after Democrats reintroduced the politics of personal destruction to national discourse, thanks to Sen. Kennedy, Mr. Clinton is going around the country lamenting, without irony, its institutionalization, and the Washington gridlock and polarized politics it has spawned. America would be a better place, he told a crowd in Hartford last weekend, if Republicans and Democrats behaved more civilly and tried to find common ground.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is chutzpah on steroids.

I was surprised Little Rock renamed its airport for BJ Clinton; I thought one comfort of losing the impeachment was that nobody would name anything after a president who settled a sexual harassment lawsuit for $890,000 after pulling his penis out on an unwitting woman (that wasn’t one of his numerous girlfriends). The 5 year law license suspension should have made it official...
And Toe-sucker was right there alongside them.
One has to wonder...who could do that...who was more powerful than Bill and Hillary?
Someone apparently is.
I broke out my old video of the Clinton impeachment trial and enjoyed watching him squirm under the questions (he was under oath, but that did not slow down his lying).
But for a few pinko congressmen and our history could have had a very different outcome.
but it was nice to see that there were, and still are, a few folks that stand true to the Constitution and the moral law of our nation.
This guy and his wife slimed poor whites yet they’d still vote for him. Now the Little Rock airport is being named after them. I’m glad I stopped flying. I don’t think I could stomach hearing the fight attendent say “Welcome to Bill and Hillary Clinton Airport”.
The Church Lady knows who has that kind of power.
“Chutzpah on Steroids”!? That’s just Bill Clinton. The guy hasn’t any shame.
America would be a better place if whoever was in the back seat that night with Clinton’s mom and used a condom.

That and it’s a shame the women ‘involved’ with some of these pols who are pushing a certain procedure down our throat weren’t following their sons/daughters advice about 8 months before the birth.

True power is not the ham-handed thing Hillary thinks it is.
Inevitably, behind appearances, is at least one Butterfly Effect.
Unfortunately, the world pins butterflies to appease its masters, and so must unavoidably reap the full effects of its belligerence.
What will surprise millions of Leftists, liberals and RINOs, though, is how Hillary will be laughing at them when their tyranny collapses. Only then will they finally realize that they really, actually always were merely useful idiots to her.
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing." - Matthew 23:37
Clinton should stick to taking advantage of young female interns nearly 30 years younger than himself and masturbating in sinks. Nixon had the decency to resign in disgrace rather than get impeached. Not Clinton. He disgraced himself by vainly hanging onto power and actually getting impeached.
Witnesses bearing damaging testimony against the president were a favorite target of the Clinton IRS. Those singled out for audits include: Clinton paramours Gennifer Flowers and Liz Ward Gracen, sexual assault accusers Paula Jones and Juanita Broaddrick, and fired White House Travel Office Director Billy Dale.
Is Obama Using The IRS To Silence Opposition Voices?
Tea Party groups around the country alerting us to the oppressive demands being sent to them from the IRS.
The players are different but the game is the same.
Despite the fact that The Dick Morris' primary day job is to get Hillary into the WH, Hair-Do Hannity gushes over him like a schoolgirl. Go figure.
