It was sure painful to watch the old, tired, lined, and erstwhile intern's inamorato suddenly come to life in his most recent televised appearance designed to buoy his sinking legacy, triangulate his way out from under a cloud of direct suspicion for criminal inaction and the associated perfidies concerning his lackluster attempts at responding to all the attacks we suffered, when one feeble hand gripped the helm of state and the other held a slack waistband.
Just as it was pretty doggone wearisome to watch the former President berate Chris Wallace for america's misunderstanding of his past sins of omission as he strove to shore up the increasingly ramshackle political hopes of his overly strident and increasingly brittle spouse.
Funny how the pundits are worrying about the damage that this sad, pathetic former commander-in-chief can cause his wife because he forgot to protect us all for a few years as he trotted the golf links, chased the golden tortoise, groveled with a nubile youth, visited Barbra in Santa Monica, and failed to make a decision about Mr. bin-Laden standing in the gun sights.
and we all watched the string of terror attacks mount up as he called it all a law enforcement problem while Mr. bin-Laden called it all war, and mailed his declaration to Mr. Clinton, who hemmed and hawed and ordered pizzas all around.
Yet pencil pushers at the overt enemy agencies like the New York Times, the pitiable mimicking television fops like Chris Matthews, members of the White House Press Corps who manufactured acres of superb camouflage cover for Mr. Clinton during his years of hooliganism like Helen Thomas, and the Democratic leadership, who are working as hard as Mr. Clinton in the creation of a golden legacy from rotten arkansas wood in their alchemy lab, worry that his woefully weak response to terror will hurt Hillary's chances for ascending the throne in 2008.
Sadly, this entire crowd of short-sighted progressive buffoons seem to overlook the fact that Mr. William J. "Bill" Clinton's real encumbrance, the real albatross around this nouveau riche scalliwag's neck is the same one that hangs around Sandy Berger's and at the same time drapes them both with a growing share of the seemingly endless humor which dogs their every path.
These left-wing pseudo-intellectuals, beau blades, and earless Democratic raillers seem to forget the all too visible black mark of Cain whose affliction can end many a career on the hustings -- a criminal past. and Bill Clinton and Sandy Berger, to the disgust of many of us poor work-a-day people, who are forced by the nature of the precarious situations we find ourselves in to make an honest living for the support of our families, and cannot afford to do otherwise, find former asocials, even those "self professed" "political" crooks, distasteful in nature.
In fact, many of us, when offered a choice, shy away from the criminal class the Democrats find so important for the bolstering of their voter rolls - other than the dead - no matter how hi-falutin' they are, how well turned out, how big their wad of "show" money, regardless of the large dimensions of their "Texas" bankroll, or how shrilly they defend their legacy on Fox News.
Bill Clinton is a self admitted liar who took a dive for perjury, giving up his law license along the way, for a specified period of time, as a result of the fabrications and falsehoods he attested to under oath.
and it is because Mr. Clinton is first and foremost a convict that he will cause the most harm to his wife as she pursues her reckless headlong attempt to build a dynasty from the smoking ruins of the Clinton legacy.
Ruins, where that other notorious Clinton rotter, a man noted for conduct nearly as outrageous as Mr. Clinton's, Mr. Sandy Berger wanders the blasted landscape waiting for full rehabilitation from Hillary.
as we can clearly recall, Sandy Berger took his cheesy misdemeanor dive for stealing classified documents directly relating to Mr. Clinton's response to terror, therefore on Bill's legacy, and on the basis for aBC's "Path to 9/11," which Mr. Berger later opined poorly over, to aBC's extreme discomfiture.
alas, Bill may yet wander the White House again as a former felon, while Sandy Berger could serve again, if he is confirmed by the senate, as a self-admitted thief of secret documents, which he secreted out in his undergarments -- and isn't it all just grand.
Nope, as a retired cop, Bill Clinton's biggest sea anchor slowing Hillary's rush to the national ballot box is his blatant criminal past.
But with the Democratic Party, being criminally inept or a crook means you're headed for a top slot in the outfit.
and thanks to our drive by media, it won't be mentioned.
