He booked the Dunkin Donuts Center in Providence, for a “free wheeling discussion about the issues of today.” and to sell the book. That arena holds about 25,000 people. It got cancelled last week. The hubris of these people is astounding. But the good news is that he couldn’t draw a crowd in Rhode Island.

The Democrats’ Creed ---what they really believe (hat tip Michael Kelly)

Democrats believe President Bill Clinton. And have always believed him. Democrats believed it when Clinton said he had never been drafted in the Vietnam War and believed him later when Clinton said he had merely “forgotten to mention” that he had been drafted in the Vietnam War.

Democrats believed him when Clinton he said he hadn’t had sex with Gennifer Flowers and believed him later, when Clinton reportedly said he did bed her down.

Democrats believed the president did not rent out the Lincoln Bedroom to celebrities, did not sell access to himself and the vice president to hundreds of well-heeled special pleaders and did not supervise the largest, most systematic money-laundering operation in campaign finance history, collecting more than $ 3 million in illegal and improper donations.

Democrats believe that Charlie Trie and James Riady were motivated by nothing but patriotism for their adopted country.

Democrats believed President Clinton when he conceded that his administration mistakenly obtained the FBI files of more than 300 people, including many top Republicans and believes it was the result of a “completely honest bureaucratic snafu” involving security clearances.

Democrats believed Clinton’s chief of staff, Leon Panetta, when he told reporters that “obviously a mistake was made” and apologized to the people whose FBI files wound up at the White House. Democrats believed Clinton when he said “I completely support” what my COS Panetta said about the affair.

Democrats believed Vice President Gore when he said that he had made dunning calls to political contributors “on a few occasions” from his White House office, and believed him when he said that, actually, “a few” meant 46.

Democrats devoutly believe in "no controlling legal authority"....but not for Nixon or Trump.

Democrats believed Bruce Babbitt when he said that the $286,000 contributed to the DNC by Indian tribes opposed to granting a casino license to rival tribes had nothing to do with his denial of the license. Democrats believed the secretary when he said that he had not been instructed in this matter by then-White House deputy chief of staff Harold Ickes.

Democrats believed him when he said later that he had told lobbyist and friend Paul Eckstein that Ickes had told him to move on the casino decision, but that he had been lying to Eckstein. Democrats agreed with the secretary that it is an outrage that anyone would question his integrity.

Democrats firmly believe in the “Clinton Standard” of adherence to the nation’s campaign finance and bribery laws, enunciated by the president on March 7, 1997: “I don’t believe you can find any evidence of the fact that I had changed government policy solely because of a contribution.” Democrats noted with approval the use of the word “evidence” and also the use of the word “solely.” Democrats devoutly believe, as Clinton does, that it is proper to change government policy to address the concerns of people who have"given the president money, as long as nobody can find "evidence" of this being the "sole" reason.

Democrats believe president Clinton lived up to his promise to preside over the most ethical administration in American history that indicted former agriculture secretary Mike Espy did not accept $35,000 in illegal favors from Tyson Foods and other regulated businesses.

Democrats believe that indicted former housing secretary Henry Cisneros did not lie to the FBI and tell others to lie to cover up $250,000 in blackmail payments to his former mistress.

Democrats believe that convicted former associate attorney general Webster Hubbell was not involved in the obstruction of justice when the president’s minions arranged for Hubbell to receive $ 400,000 in sweetheart consulting deals at a time when he was reneging on his promise to cooperate with Kenneth Starr’s Whitewater investigation.

Democrats believe, as Harvey Weinstein does, that Paula Jones is a cheap tramp who was asking for it, that Kathleen Willey is a cheap tramp who was asking for it, and that Monica Lewinsky is a cheap tramp who was asking for it.

Democrats firmly believe Monica Lewinsky was “just fantasizing” in her 20 hours of taped conversation in which she reportedly detailed her sexual relationship with the president and begged Linda Tripp to join her in lying about the relationship and that any gifts, correspondence, telephone calls and the 37 post-employment White House visits that may have passed between Lewinsky and the president are evidence only of a platonic relationship. Journos believe that such innocent intimate friendships are quite common between middle-aged married men and young single women, and also between presidents of the United States and White House interns.

Democrats see nothing suspicious in the report that the president’s intimate pal, Vernon Jordan, arranged a $40,000-per-year job for Lewinsky shortly after she signed but before she filed an affidavit saying she had not had sex with the president.

Nor did Democrats read anything significant into the fact that the ambassador to the United Nations, Bill Richardson, visited Lewinsky at the Watergate to offer her a job.

Democrat believe the instructions Lewinsky gave Linda Tripp informing her on how to properly perjure herself in the Willey matter simply wrote themselves.

Democrats believe, as does Hillary, that The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Newsweek, Time, U.S. News & World Report, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, PBS and NPR are all part of a vast right-wing conspiracy to malign the saintly Clintons.

One Clinton lies.....

"I never had sexual relations with that woman...Miss Lewinsky."

And the other Clinton swears to it.

=============================================

VINTAGE TIME COVER The Clintons leave the WH
arm-in-arm after Bill got lewinskied. Plotting to exploit
Bill's BJ for votes, the Clintons' political apparat never faltered.

Hillary later went on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of a VRWC."

Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.
He had to pay Paula Jones 800,000 dollars.

==========================================

Did the "kindly sensitive" Clintons tell Chelsea the reason she got hustled off (in that " Clinton solidarity pose" on the vintage TIME cover?) Did mom and dad tell her daddy got a BJ in the Oval office? Did they explain the details of a BJ to Chelsea?

=====================================

(SMIRK) Maybe Chelsea was not allowed to read the Daily News?

As satisfying as all this is, the only reason the MSM is going after him is to virtue signal, so when whatever women crawl out of the woodwork to accuse Trump, et al, right before the midterms, they can pretend they’re just as tough on democrats.. (That, plus their love of all things Clinton is backfiring, in view of Hillary’s incessant whining and blaming that’s damaging the democrat party.

He had the chance to take the high road and offer a confessional, to say he had done some wrong things and he was sorry. But not that arrogant rapist.

Clinton is a lot like Islam, they both horribly mistreat women, and both never ever admit to doing anything wrong.

Saw this on Foxnews last night and I finally figured out why there is such a divide now in the US.

When the left says: “I defended the constitution” they mean: “I got a BJ from an intern in the Oval Office”.

Neither Patterson nor Clinton wrote many of the words in that book.
Ghost writing stable there.

I've read and enjoyed every novel James Patterson wrote, even the youth targeted ones, until...

The book's author began showing as, James Patterson WITH some unknown entity.

Haven't read one since.

Tom Clancy did the same.
Same results.

Two decades too late, and this is exactly why we have judged the major media outlets to be useless to us for information or a window on decent morals.

...or even decent thriller fiction...

I read a couple of the James Patterson books. One stands out in my mind as particularly good... it was titled, “Beach Road.” Now that I check online, it had a co-author, Peter DeJonge. Good storytelling, multiple viewpoints, nice ending twist.

But I started some others, and they seemed more ordinary.

The guy got popular for a reason. Unlike Hillary and Chelsea, he did write his own material for a while.

"I don't anticipate this will evaporate, but I do anticipate it will slowly dissipate over time by the weight of its own insubstantiality." -- Hillary Clinton

The only thing most Americans keep hoping to see is the evaporation and dissipation of the insubstantial and irrelevant Ugly, Fat, Criminal Cow!

“Looks like the Left is finally pulling the flush handle on the Clintons.”

As Rush said today, the Dems are “throwing Clinton under the bus” because it’ll free them to attack Trump. They hate Trump more than they like Clinton.

......” They hate Trump more than they like Clinton”.....

I think they hate to like Hillary, (now that she’s cost them their ‘faith’), so they hate Trump because he’s not her.
