Former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton says in her new book that Donald Trump made her skin crawl by stalking her around the stage in a campaign debate and she wonders if she should have told him to "back up, you creep". In audio excerpts of the book What Happened aired on MSNBC, Mrs Clinton described her 2016 campaign as "joyful, humbling, infuriating and just plain baffling" and acknowledged she failed her millions of supporters by losing to Trump in the November election. In the excerpts, Mrs Clinton described the 9 October debate in St Louis in which Mr Trump...

Chris Wallace, host of “Fox News Sunday,” couldn’t help but ask Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) about a video, which went viral, of his daughter looking uncomfortable while Vice President Joe Biden whispered in her ear and gave her a kiss on the head during the senator’s swearing in ceremony last week. “I have to ask, cause a lot of people have been speculating about it, does she think the vice president is creepy?” Wallace asked. “No, Chris,” Coons said with a chuckle. “She doesn’t think the vice president is creepy.” To the contrary, Coons went on to say that Biden,...

<p>FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON ON NOT CAPTURING BIN LADEN: 'At least I tried. That's the difference between me and some, including all the right wingers. They ridicule me for trying. They had eight months to try, they did not try. I tried. So I tried and failed'...</p>

The city of Little Rock has erased "Confederate Boulevard'' from interstate highway signs...The...signs had been the first landmarks many saw after landing at the city's airport. They were changed as Little Rock welcomed presidents, dignitaries and celebrities for the opening of Bill Clinton's presidential library.

Judge rejects plea for leniency and calls retired handyman a sick coward who should die in prison for his reign of terror SYRACUSE (New York) - A judge sentenced a retired handyman to 18 years to life in prison on Tuesday, calling the defendant 'a sick coward' and 'an evil man' for keeping five women as sex slaves in a concrete bunker. John Jamelske, 68, pleaded guilty last month to kidnapping five women and girls and holding them from 1988 till he was caught this year at his home in DeWitt, a Syracuse suburb. None of the victims appeared in...

<p>LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas (AP) -- The world's largest museum design firm promises its work on the Clinton Presidential Library will strike a balance between entertainment and education, between the former president's feats and failures.</p> <p>Award-winning designer Ralph Appelbaum said he wants to create a museum that touts Clinton as a visionary whose policies and leadership defined a generation.</p>

<p>LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The federal government should protect parents' rights not to testify against their children, former White House intern and reality TV host Monica Lewinsky wrote in an opinion piece in the Los Angeles Times.</p> <p>In the op-ed article printed in Sunday's newspaper, Lewinsky said it seemed appropriate on Mother's Day urge Congress to grant that right.</p>

On Feb. 12, 1998, my mother appeared before a grand jury at the federal courthouse in Washington, D.C. She was not subpoenaed to testify about a robbery she witnessed, or to describe some aspect of a securities fraud, but to be questioned about me -- her only daughter. I was horrified and sickened. Not unlike many young women, I had confided in my mom -- to a certain extent -- and expected our conversations to remain between us. In a million years I could never have fathomed a situation where we would find our bond -- a deep, important and...

For those who do not know, two of the ultimate Clinton buttboys are Gene Lyons and Joe Conason. I actually had the pleasure of calling Joe Conason a Clinton buttboy on the Gloria Allred Show a few years back. He screamed his head off on the radio and didn't want to talk to me. The two Clintonistas wrote a book called THE HUNTING OF THE PRESIDENT in an attempt to try to save the legacy of the impeached rapist who played in the White House for eight years instead of looking after the defense of this nation. Steven Spielberg is...

Just starting an after action report. Here are a few highlights of the evening so far. I'm sure there will be more additions tonight and tomorrow but most of our folks are still socializing at an undisclosed location...with beer.

The United States should be more diplomatic than it has been in handling its current confrontations with Iraq and North Korea, former President Clinton said Wednesday in an appearance at the University of Texas. In an hour-long speech at the Erwin Center, Clinton addressed a possible war with Iraq, international diplomacy and President Bush's proposed tax cuts. But he said the country's largest threat today is the potential for a revived nuclear weapons program in North Korea. The remarks came on the same day that CIA director George Tenet revealed that North Korea has a long range missile capable of...

Hillary Clinton is stashing away money, publicly confronting the president, banking favors, and getting ready for a run for the presidency. I have always believed that when a majority of Americans finally recognize that a serial sexual predator and his co-rapist wife occupied our White House, it will be the end of the legacy and the end of Hillary's dreams, and, of course, our worse nightmare. I believe that the rape issue is important for the following reasons: 1. It will absolutely silence the NOW cows, some of Clinton's most vociferous supporters. 2. It will shock every decent American who...

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) - A U.S. attack on Iraq could give Saddam Hussein an excuse to use weapons of mass destruction against the United States and its allies, former President Bill Clinton said Friday. Clinton said the current administration should move cautiously on Iraq and urged President Bush ( news - web sites) to listen to Congress and the American public. "Looking at it from the outside, it seems to me we have maximum incentive now for him not to use these weapons and not to give them to anybody. Because he knows all of America is ready to go...

SOURCES close to Bill Clinton tell me that the former president will make what they call "a major public policy statement" about the fraught situation in the Middle East, probably within the next week. They say that Clinton feels enough time has now passed since he left the White House to start speaking out publicly about major issues. Clinton gave a hint of this Saturday night when he told reporters before a Texas fund-raiser that he supports Secretary of State Colin Powell's peace efforts. He added, "There has to be justice and economic opportunities for the Palestinians." I hope...
