Bring back Big Dog
God help me, but I miss this man.
I miss the Big Dog. I miss having a president with a triple digit IQ.
I never gave a good goddamn what he did with his dick. I spent the entire Lewinsky scandal in a state of appalled disgust not with him, but with the Republicans who were cynical enough to derail the country and wipe their asses with the Constitution just to get a political edge. Those fucktwits spent eight years assassinating Clinton’s character, and because of that we now have Shrub, Worst President Ever.
Every now and then, when I’m contemplating the awesome moral depravity of the gibbering sadists who run this country, I’m reminded of how those same people howled with calculated outrage over the “moral depravity” of Bill Clinton’s sex life. It would be funny, if it weren’t for the thousands of dead bodies in Iraq and the corpses of torture victims piled up in Baghdad morgue and the incinerators of Guantanomo Bay.
But I won’t speak of that today. It will make me cry again.

Relax. If we are not in a total nuclear war with the entire world by 2008, chances are good that a Democrat will win and all of this Idi Amin stuff will be backpedaled. I am almost willing to vote for Hitlery Clinton. Gender isn’t an issue when I vote…we have a female Governor here and she’s pretty darned good, except that she is a Repugnican. Sure, Hitlery’s a crook and a liar, but she’s a lawyer, so she is at least a PROFESSIONAL crook and liar like Slick Willie. Personally, I am not all that confident the country will last another 6 years without a civil war to get the Constitution back. I am through giving up rights. I am now willing to defend the few I have left by force of arms.

VSI believe I can make a case that Ulysses S. Grant was the worse president ever, but I won’t.

Paul–
If grant had attacked Iraq, you could make that case.

Before Bush took office, I never thought that I’d miss Clinton. If you want to get pissed off at the Opus Dei wing of the Supreme Court all over again, check out this video:

Clinton was good for America but the Republicans will never admit it. When Clinton was in office, I admit I didn’t pay much attention to politics. Hell, I didn’t even like Clinton at first. But when the whole dick-sucking fiasco came up.The Right says that getting his dick sucked made him too distracted from his job to run the country effectively. Well, my god, what if Clinton had to, oh, I don’t know, take a dump while at work? That’s pretty distracting and sometimes takes longer than getting a hummer.
And he lied about it? Ok. I don’t blame him, it’s no one’s fucking business. I don’t care if he lied about his dick. I care if there are lies on top of lies that cause thousands of innocent deaths in Iraq.
You’ve heard it all before ad nauseum, I know, but I don’t GET neo-cons. I don’t understand why they don’t see the Clinton scandal for what it was: The Republicans playing dirty. And the Iraq war is the same thing, the Republicans playing dirty. Do they not care? I question if they even have a concience sometimes.
Never mind, I do get it: the Republicans do have something to their advantage. Stupid people. Stupid people are extremely loyal and follow without questioning. Just assign any Republican leader (I.Q. doesn’t seem to be a criteria as long as they are Pro-life and go to church) and they’ll see him as an extension of God, pretty much. Any dissention is blasphemy and heresy. No wonder I’m not a fan of organized religion.
Ok, alright, I’m done rambling and talking about things we’ve all heard before. Nothing new here, move along. I just needed to vent for a minute. Sigh….

What’s important to Bush on Nov 1, 2001?
One of Bush’s first acts after being inaugurated President on Jan. 20, 2001, was to stop the scheduled release of documents from the Reagan-Bush administration. Supposedly, the delay was to permit a fuller review of the papers, but that review was strung out through Bush’s first several months in office.
Then, after the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, Bush began considering how to lock those records away from the public indefinitely. On Nov. 1, 2001, Bush issued Executive Order 13233, which effectively negated the 1978 Presidential Records Act by allowing presidents, vice presidents and their heirs the power to prevent many document releases.
The Watergate-era public-records law had declared that the records of presidents and vice presidents who took office after Jan. 20, 1981, would belong to the American people and would be released 12 years after a President left office, except for still sensitive papers, such as those needing protection because of national security or personal privacy.
Because of those time frames, a large volume of Reagan-Bush records were due for release to the public on Jan. 20, 2001.
Eight years earlier, the senior George Bush had tried to undercut the Presidential Records Act before leaving office. On Jan. 19, 1993, the day before Bill Clinton’s Inauguration, George H.W. Bush struck a deal with then-U.S. Archivist Don W. Wilson, granting Bush control over computerized records from his presidency, including the power to destroy computer tapes and hard drives.
Wilson then landed a job as director of the George Bush Center in Texas in what looked like a payoff for ceding control of the computerized records. In 1995, a federal judge struck down the Bush-Wilson agreement, in effect, resuming the countdown toward the first implementation of the Presidential Records Act in 2001.
Facing that deadline while taking the oath of office on Jan. 20, 2001, George W. Bush had his White House counsel Alberto Gonzales draft up paperwork that first suspended and then gutted the law. Bush’s Nov. 1, 2001, executive order granted former national executives – and their families – the right to control the documents indefinitely.
Bush’s order amounted to a grant of hereditary power over the nation’s history. Because of his father’s 12 years as Vice President and President and his own possible eight years as President, Bush’s order could mean that control over 20 years of American history might someday be invested in the hands of the Bush Twins, Jenna and Barbara.
Guess we’ll have to torture somebody if we ever want to know anything. -

Yes I agree that Bush is horrible, but we never stopped bombing Iraq. We were bombing it during the Clinton years too. Just sayin’.

love2all, don’t apologize for ranting over that stuff. The main reason I started this blog was so I would have a place to rant.
There are millions of red-staters who still think of Clinton as Slick Willie and his administration as “some of the worst lying we’ve ever had,” to quote an interview I read somewhere with some Georgia crackers. And they think Torture President is some kind of moral paragon appointed by God. It makes no goddamn sense at all. They’re just morons.
