ALOHA RONNIE,
Thanks for the ping.
Even if the thought of more Bubba Clinton on TV makes me ill.

But...I think over-exposure of The Bent One MIGHT be a good thing...rally the troops and
remind them of what could happen again if they are wimpy about turning out to the polls
on the first Tuesday of November 2004.

...Oh, WHY did such a Fella have to die...???

Well, beyond the failures of eight years of Clinton military/intelligence management...
as I've said before:

He saw the bullet coming and didn't flinch.

PS: Sidebar question, seeing how "We Were Soldiers" will probably be out on DVD
within the next year or so.
Do you know if the future DVD will include lots of extra goodies, e.g., interviews
with Moore, Galloway and other survivors, as well as technical/historical info.

I'm not asking you to give us any spoilers...just a few teasers if you are privy to
anything that the DVD release of the film might have.
Cheers!

Earlier this month he took on a new job as a senior adviser to two investment funds run by a cut price grocery store tycoon, the Los Angeles-based Yucaipa Companies said.

Would you trust the rapist in chief with an investment fund?

"He'snever written a book in his life, and this will not change that record. A ghostwriter will study his previously ghosted 'articles' and 'speeches,' sit down with the 'author' for a few hours, and slap something, it doesn't matter what, together."

HA!!
Ain't it ever the truth...

Why they'll have to coin a *new* term to describe this abomination they're calling, "A Book."
Because frankly speaking?
"Virtual Reality" won't be nearly enough to do justice to this fraud we've *all* come to know in many ways; but mainly as, "The Sink Emporer."

As for handing the dog a TV show?
Nawwwww...ain't gonna happen.
(Although really: I wouldn't totally rule-out *something* appearing on a Frday night at FoxTV; like, cohosting, "Tough Man" along side of Lawrence Taylor...*classy* TV)

The sponsors don't need that kind of Leper-association to their product(s).
The asshole's a lightening rod who'd conduct fecal matter from the skies by the Giga-watt.

...& that, is an awful lot of crap.

:o)

Actually, I believe he will do this,

But ... but ... but you move-on'ers kept assuring us he would just fade away if we ignored him and his crimes. What went wrong?

Actually, I am on record from before the election saying that he would be offered a spot on CNN, and also have a line of ties, trading cards, a radio spot, a movie part, etc. etc. and that he would never go away.

If you think that your plan would make him go away, you are being decidedly foolish. He is gradually being marginalized into a celebrity figure, as opposed to a serious elder statesman, and that is just fine with me. The fewer people who take him seriously, the better that will be for everyone. I would be most happy if he was placated with rock star status and the illusion of importance and channeled away into a little sub-culture somewhere.

Also...I am on record as saying that I trust President Bush to do what is best for the country concerning this individual. Whatever is best for the country as a whole, mind you, NOT whatever requirements YOU think are necessary.

Good day.

ALOHA VOA...

...Over in ..'The Movie'.. Forum of the .."WE WERE SOLDIERS".. website...

.. www.WeWereSoldiersFILM.com ..

...we are hearing that Paramount will be releasing the ..-WWS-.. DVD in November, just in time for some more Oscar Buzz.

...As the TV Promo's prior to the Movie's Release with IA DRANG-1965 Vets, Director/Screenwriter RANDALL WALLACE and stars MEL GIBSON-SAM ELLIOTT & Co were extensive ...I would think there'd be some special goodies added onto the ..-WWS-.. DVD as well. But I have no current details on this to share.

...Upon my return from the 1st Major Battle Operations of the Vietnam War it was pretty easy to spot who was working in partnership with our North Vietnamese Communist Enemy here at home because they bahaved exactly the same way =

...LIE about what America was doing over there while our guys were being blown up by forests of landmines in threatend Free South Vietnam.

...Primary amongst those Enemies Within were a young HILLARY RODHAM -&- BILL CLINTON.

...Their sabotaging of our National Intelligence Operations in favor of the CLINTONS' Terrorist Partners abroad, when they finally had the power to so during the 1990's, was intentional.

...Lt. Gen. HAL G. MOORE (Ret.) said back in the Mid-1990's that it will be decades before America recovers from the damage the CLINTONS have inflicted upon it.

...September 11, 2001 = The CLINTON Stamp on America.

Good points. Clinton could not be punctual when he had an array of aides - no chance when he is on his own.

Actually, if they gave him the show, his ratings would slay Gumball's -- those female demographics. But then, I could host the show, and get higher ratings than Gumball!

(For over three times the pay of his predecessors, Gumball did the seemingly impossible, in dragging the show's ratings even FURTHER down. He quit, when CBS wouldn't give him a raise. Were he a white guy, they would have fired him long before his contract was up!)

Why? Caught part of an interview on RCI (maybe BBC) last night, author of book on Saddam. Seems some
Iraqi TV exec started the practice of allowing anybody off the street to "sing" the praises of Saddam on the air.

'Natch, guess what's on all the time? Guess who had a problem when the program director decided to
actually program something [else]? Guess what is back filling the program schedule?

If CBS actually decides to pursue this strategy, which in a sane world, would result in the non-renewal of all of CBS'
FCC licenses, (not to mention SEC regs about due diligence), what do you want to bet that he only talks about
himself and/or receives the praises of the idiotic masses that stand in the rain in front of the studios of the morning shows?

I remember growing up, the roller derby had the biggest audience (the Beltway, late '60s). Guess what?
The people that watched it didn't have any disposable income. Kind of difficult to keep advertisers.
(The reverse was true of golf - small audience, but tons of d.i.)

The salemen will sign contracts, and the advertisers will get stuck with lower ratings than Crossfire.

The consumers will get stuck paying the bills for Clinton yet again.

Madness.

Exactly. The doofus was late/is late for everything. No way could network TV depend on him to show up on time every day.
