Just where did that clock wind up? Just where did that clock wind up?

I don't have any say in picking the questions for tonight's U.S. Senate debate between Robert Torricelli and Douglas Forrester. But if I did, here's one I'd ask: What time is it?

Not what time is it on the watch Torricelli is wearing, which almost certainly won't be a Rolex. But what time is it on that grandfather clock of his? You know, the one that he bought with an envelope of cash during that 1997 visit to an antiques store in Lambertville with David Chang.

Once again, Mulshine nails The Torch for the lying, obfuscating, Clintonesque piece of garbage that he is.

Title was so nice, I printed it twice.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

"Title was so nice, I printed it twice."

Torricelli, like his idol, Bill Clinton, has handled scandals in the usual democrat way. First deny everything. Then, say everything will be answered by the committee that is investigating. Then, say everything was answered by that committee. Just, never give the actual answers.

Can't we just put this behind us and move on? The man has been admonished, for God's sake!! If you expect any higher level of ethics from those on the democrat side of the Senate, who'd be left? Dashole's wife is probably taking bribes from anyone who'd offer (although, she'd probably claim that she and her firm will take bribes only from reputable folks). In fact, it is very likely that Dashole's reluctance to go after Saddam is based on fees paid by the Saudis to Dashole's wife and her firm. She has to be his bag lady, otherwise why would he conceal his tax records from public view? What else is there to hide?

So, senatorial capital punishment of a democrat while the democrats rule the senate is a patty-cake admonishment. And, with so many of them in the same boat as the torch, it is easily understood why. In the House, crooked memberss are expelled. In the Senate, they are admonished (if they are democrats). Let's move on!!!

The real lesson taught to the democrats from teacher Bill Clinton is very simple and very effective.

Be untruthful in every possible situation. Never mix lies with truth. Always be sleezy and corrupt, while feeling someone elses pain on the surface. Anytime your opponent takes issue with anything you actually did, it sounds so outrageous people won't believe it. The more they bring up your behavior, the crazier it makes them look.

Who would have believed that Torricelli actually would accompany a bribing business person to an antiques dealer with an envelope of cash, bought a prescious expensive antique with the cash, and had it delivered to the senators home? The only thing that prevented the truth from being deep sixed was that Torricelli couldn't get his New Jersey State Troopers to put the antique dealer in the way of a drive by shooting or convince a coroner he committed suicide. I hope that antique dealer realizes how lucky he is to be alive.

If you ask Chang where it is, he will tell you the Justice Department had it installed in his rear end by a proctologist named Guido-Jo-White. Once a week, Torricelli has arranged for a guy named Bubba to stop by Chang's cell and wind that clock for him.

I called Michael Kulstad of the U.S. Attorney's Office in New York. "I don't think we ever publicly said we seized it," said Kulstad.

Hmmm, this seems to inply that they did seize the clock.

What time is it?

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

What time is it?

Ask Torricelli. He has the clock.

[dead]

We don't know that. 8-)
