This is really disgusting...be sure to read it all...
If Hillary wins in 2008 and Bill is "appointed" to fill her Senate seat and either lives to retire "they" (together or alone) would get two US Presidential retirement checks,. two US Senate retirement checks, a retirement check from the State of Arkansas. About the only thing they MIGHT NOT get is a Social Security check....but I wouldn't bet on it....
I understand ole Bill has earned $40,000,000 in the past six years. What a guy!
Dear Mr. Ex President Clinton:
I recently saw a bumper sticker that said, "Thank me, I voted for Clinton-Gore." So, I sat down and reflected on that, and I am sending my "Thank you" for what you have done, specifically:
1. Thank you for introducing us to Jennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, Monica Lewinsky, Dolly Kyle Browning, Kathleen Willey, and Juanita Broderick. Did I leave anyone out?
2. Thank you for teaching my 8 year old about oral sex. I had really planned to wait until he was a little older to discuss it with him, but now he knows more about it than I did as a senior in college.
3. Thank you for showing us that sexual harassment in the work place (especially the White House) and on the job is OK, and all you have to know is what the meaning of "is" is. It really is great to know that certain sexual acts are not sex, and one person may have sex while the other one does NOT have sex.
4. Thank you for reintroducing the concept of impeachment to a new generation and demonstrating that the ridiculous plot of the movie "Wag the Dog" could be plausible after all.
5. Thanks for making Jimmy Carter look competent, Gerald Ford look graceful, Richard Nixon look honest, Lyndon Johnson look truthful, and John Kennedy look moral.
6. Thank you for the 73 House and Senate witnesses who have plead the 5th Amendment and 17 witnesses who have fled the country to avoid testifying about Democratic campaign fund raising.
7. Thank you, for the 19 charges, 8 convictions, and 4 imprisonment's from the Whitewater "mess" and the 55 criminal charges and 32 criminal convictions (so far) in the other "Clinton" scandals.
8. Thanks also for reducing our military by half, "gutting" much of our foreign policy, and flying all over the world on "vacations" carefully disguised as necessary trips.
9 Thank you, also, for "finding" millions of dollars (I really didn't need it in the first place, and I can't think of a more deserving group of recipients for my hard-earned tax dollars) for all of your globe trotting. I understand you, the family and your cronies have logged in more time aboard Air Force One than any other administration.
10. Now that you've left the White House, thanks for the 140 pardons of convicted felons and indicted felons-in-exile.. We will love to have them rejoin society. (Not to mention the scores you pardoned while Governor of Arkansas)
11. Thanks also for removing the White House silverware. I'm sure that Laura Bush didn't like the pattern anyway. Also, enjoy the housewarming gifts you've received from your "friends."
12. Thanks to you and your staff in the West Wing of the White House for vandalizing and destroying government property on the way out. I also appreciate removing all of that excess weight (China, silverware, linen, towels, ash trays, soap, pens, magnetic compass, flight manuals, etc.) out of Air Force 1. The weight savings means burning less fuel, thus less tax dollars spent on jet fuel. Thank you!
13. And finally, please ensure that Hillary enjoys the $8 million dollar advance for her "tell-all" book and you, Bill, the $10 million advance for your memoirs. Who says crime doesn't pay!
14. The last and most important point - thank you for forcing Israel to let Mohammed Atta go free. Terrorist pilot Mohammed Atta blew up a bus in Israel in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993, Israel had to agree to release so-called "political prisoners". However, the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands. The American President at the time, Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, "insisted" that all prisoners be released. Thus Mohammed Atta was freed and eventually thanked the US by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade Center. This was reported by many of the American TV networks at the time that the terrorists were first identified. It was censored in the US from all later reports. Why shouldn't Americans know the real truth?
What a guy!!
God bless America and THANK YOU (once again) for spending my taxes so wisely and frugally.
SINCERELY,
A United States of America Citizen
PS. Please pass along a special thank you to Al Gore for "inventing" the
Internet, without which I would not be able to send this wonderful, factual e-mail.
AND THE REST OF THE STORY... Hilarious Rotten Clinton , as a New York State Senator, now comes under the "Congressional Retirement and Staffing Plan," which means that even if she never gets reelected, she STILL receives her Congressional salary until she dies. (Would it not be nice if all Americans were pension eligible after only 4 years?)
If Bill outlives her, he then inherits HER salary until HE dies. He is already getting his Presidential salary until he dies. If Hillary outlives Bill, she also gets HIS salary until she dies. Guess who pays for that?
WE DO!
It's common knowledge that in order for her to establish NY residency, they purchased a million dollar-plus house in upscale Chappaqua, New York. Makes sense. They are entitled to Secret Service protection for life. Still makes sense.
Here is where it becomes interesting. Their mortgage payments hover at around $10,000 per month. BUT, an extra residence "had" to be built within the acreage to house the Secret Service agents. The Clintons charge the Federal government $10,000 monthly rent for the use of that extra residence, which is just about equal to their mortgage payment. This means that we, the taxpayers, are paying the Clinton's salary, mortgage, transportation, safety and security, as well as the salaries for their 12 man staff --
and, this is all perfectly legal!
WILL YOU VOTE FOR HER???????

But just remember that there is a tiny bit of justice in this world since Bill's retirement as a former president will be about 1/2 of what Hillary's would be ....

I believe ALL presidents and most political figures are self serving anti-Christs...(except for Jimmy Carter). If you check all your facts you will see that both Democrats and Republicans are equally evil. What you have written still needs some backing but it may very well be true.I have no doubts that Clinton is a monster and so is his wife.But lets not forget the Bush family.All too often people get so entangled with party agenda that they can't see that it is ALL political power...not necessarily government powers but all political powers...there IS a difference.The fact of the matter is that there is very little we can do at this point.It doesn't matter who we elect, it doesn't matter which side.In the end the whole system is headed in the same direction.

Hmmmm I might ask you, where are all of the positives that came out of that presidency? And I certainly do not want to hear there were none!

Here is a bit of good:
The Clinton presidency left America with record economic growth and prosperity:
Average economic growth of 4.0 percent per year, compared to average growth of 2.8 percent during the previous years. The economy grew for 116 consecutive months, the most in history.
Creation of more than 22.5 million jobs—the most jobs ever created under a single administration, and more than were created in the previous 12 years. Of the total new jobs, 20.7 million, or 92 percent, were in the private sector.
Economic gains spurred an increase in family incomes for all Americans. Since 1993, real median family income increased by $6,338, from $42,612 in 1993 to $48,950 in 1999 (in 1999 dollars).
Overall unemployment dropped to the lowest level in more than 30 years, down from 6.9 percent in 1993 to just 4.0 percent in January 2001. The unemployment rate was below 5 percent for 40 consecutive months. Unemployment for African Americans fell from 14.2 percent in 1992 to 7.3 percent in 2000, the lowest rate on record. Unemployment for Hispanics fell from 11.8 percent in October 1992 to 5.0 percent in 2000, also the lowest rate on record.
Inflation dropped to its lowest rate since the Kennedy Administration, averaging 2.5 percent, and fell from 4.7 percent during the previous administration.
The homeownership rate reached 67.7 percent near the end of the Clinton administration, the highest rate on record. In contrast, the homeownership rate fell from 65.6 percent in the first quarter of 1981 to 63.7 percent in the first quarter of 1993.
The poverty rate also declined from 15.1 percent in 1993 to 11.8 percent in 1999, the largest six-year drop in poverty in nearly 30 years. This left 7 million fewer people in poverty than there were in 1993.
The surplus in fiscal year 2000 was $237 billion—the third consecutive surplus and the largest surplus ever.
Under the Clinton-Gore Administration, the welfare rolls dropped dramatically and were the lowest since 1969. Between January 1993 and September of 1999, the number of welfare recipients dropped by 7.5 million (a 53 percent decline) to 6.6 million. In comparison, between 1981-1992, the number of welfare recipients increased by 2.5 million (a 22 percent increase) to 13.6 million people.

I, for one, am tired of seeing the same tired lies about the Clinton administration repeated over, and over, and over, and over. Bill Clinton didn't teach your 8-year-old about oral sex. You have Special Prosecutor Kenneth Starr to thank for that. After all the attempts to "get" Clinton on something, do you honestly think if all the damage "reported" to have been done to the White House actually had been done, they wouldn't have arrested him and his entire outgoing staff on charges of malicious vandalism, defacing public property, or whatever charge they could if they really had a SHRED of evidence? That's called "trying" him in the media, with a one-sided argument, rather than going to a court of law (where they know they don't have a case). .
Mind you, I'm not saying I want my son to be like Bill Clinton. I don't think I'd personally like the guy, frankly. But, his Presidency was good for the country, in my opinion, whereas all I have seen from the Bush Presidency is a loss of respect for us around the entire world, economic devastation for middle and lower income families, 40+ million working people without healthcare so corporate profits are higher, and a host of other supply-side and wealth-favored breaks so that the haves get more and the have-nots are guarantted to never be able to.
And I couldn't care less how many retirement checks he and his wife are drawing. They honestly fulfilled the requirements for those retirements as much as any other senator or office holder. Therefore, they may be masters of working the system, but they Are entitled to it. You would be paying those checks to WHOEVER served in those offices for that period of time. It's not like you'd be saving money if someone besides Bill and Hillary had been elected.
Campaign fund raising? Bob Dole's former vice chairman of campaign finance (Simon Fireman) paid $6 milllion in fines and at age 70 served a 6 month sentence for illegal campaign finance activities. Until the Voters make absolute accountability in campaign finance an issue, they're ALL going to slip around the rules as much as they can, because that is what the process has come to require of them. I don't have an answer for it. I wish I did.
But please, do some research yourself on things, rather than listening to crap like what your friend passed on to you and taking it as gospel. Don't continue spreading the crap around. It's time for the stink to go away.

Okay...simply stated....Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar in Finance.
Bush...was rejected because of his academic ineptness from getting into law school. In other words was not smart enough to get into law school, yet we put him in charge of the country??
Does it really look like a fair fight when it comes to battel of the brains. Those who pick the second choice, will keep on doing so and thus continues the legacy of the fools are in charge.
