Once a hoer, always a whore.

ql is sending traffic your way this morning, good read.
Bad business.

OMG! Politicians make long-term plans about their aspirations to higher offices! Stop teh presses!!!!!

"Gerth and Von Natta have spent years as investigative reporters for the New York Times."

Ah the Times. Because their track record with the Clintons is unimpeachable.

I have a new book coming out. It's titled, 'Bill Clinton: He Really Likes Hot Dogs'.

Unlike previous biographies, this one will not be that easy to dismiss.

I hear that Clinton had a twenty-year project for eating hot dogs, and that he talked about it with Hillary before they were married. Would you like to interview me for your book, JP1000?

OK, you've convinced me. I'm voting for Hillary simply on the basis that she and Bill seem to be the only two people within the Democratic party who can actually formulate a "plan" to do something, and then carry it out.

Come to think of it, this whole "planning" thing might be a useful quality in a President.

Plans? Damn that's a great idea. I might even overlook her DLC connections and vote for her just because she can carry out a plan.

Clintons' rise to power = Stonecutters conspiracy

On the bright side, since this book was reviewed by a real reviewer having "disciplined taste, historical and theoretical knowledge and a fairly deep sense of the author's (or filmmaker's or painter's) entire body of work," Richard Schickel is satisfied.

The allegations by Crider originated in "State of a Union: Inside the Complex Marriage of Bill and Hillary Clinton," a book by former National Enquirer reporter Jerry Oppenheimer. This is the same classic tome that produced the urban legend about Hilary calling a campaign strategist a "fucking Jew bastard" back in the mid-70s. The alleged slur-ee was a fella named Paul Fray, a disbarred fraudulent former lawyer who suffered from memory loss, brain damage, and drug addiction at the time he made his accusations over a decade after the "fact".

Since this is the quality of Gerth's source material, I eagerly await his second Hilary Clinton book entitled, "Hilary and P'lod: Star-Crossed Lovers in the White House".

Ah the Times. Because their track record with the Clintons is unimpeachable.

That line made my day! (I hope it was on purpose.)

Before the Clintons, ambition had no role at all in politics.

VanNatta was a wanker back in college when he was the editor of Boston University's Daily Free Presss and he's a wanker now. Van Natta was a poodle to power than (John Silber) and he's a poodle to power now (Repigs). Nothing has changed. Next time I see you I'll tell you about some of his Freep wankery.

How can you not trust Jeff Gerth? His reporting on Whitewater was flawless! What? Oh, never mind.

You doubt the veracity of the Secret Protocols of the Elders of Clinton? You fool!

Gerth? The guy that got it all right on Whitewater. Yeah. That guy.

Why has this asshole gotten a free pass all these years? Wasn't he making shit up like Jayson Blair? One of the reasons the blogosphere took off is because of the NYT's ridiculous reporting (and editorializing w/Howell "Ladies' Man" Raines) during Whitewater...I got so sick of reading it then I let my subscription lapse and have never renewed.

Ok, maybe the Whitewater stuff was a little weak, but that Wen Ho Lee story was pure gold....oh crap.

"Secret Protocols of the Elders of Clinton"! I love it.

Yep, a politically ambitious couple hatching a secret conspiracy to...plan their future! That's worth a Drudge headline for sure.

Planning? But that's what Commie Russians do! Fred Thompson even said so in that movie about that Commie sub, you know, the one with the good James Bond and Darth Vader's voice in it. Damn, but Fred Thompson looked good in that uniform on that aircraft carrier...almost Presidential! He looked like he'd be a great Commander in Chief!

He also said, in that same movie: "This will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it!"

You said "ho"

hee hee.

I find the whole "hate Clinton" movement to be absurd and teh stupid. I wish they'd grow up. What the hell is wrong with someone that they'd spend a couple years of their lives working on such trash?

... more disinformation and misdirection from liberal academia. JP, don't let the Professor fool you; your thesis is 180 degrees off. Everyone knows that Bill prefers the taco to the hot dog.

I heard Gerth on NPR THIS VERY afternoon pimping this sorry excuse for third world toilet paper.

Planning? But that's what Commie Russians do!

Yes, and it contrasts poorly to the various Repug candidates. They aren't shifting in the wind and playing to the polls, they are responding to market forces - much more American and in tune with a free enterprise economy.

Not that it matters, but the paragraph you quoted says the letter was on Bill's desk, not Hillary's.
