Bill Clinton: New York
built 136 days ago
Supporters of the Bill call it "pro-life" because the research being conducted on fetal tissue from abortions might benefit patients suffering from debilitating conditions such as diabetes and Parkinson's disease. "To call this a pro-life bill sounds like the 'New Speak' of Nazi Germany," said Ralph Reed, executive director of Christian Coalition. "This legislation would have benefitted only one group - the half-billion dollar a year abortion industry." There is something deeply troubling about cannibalizing tiny bodes of living babies - even for humanitarian purposes. More unsettling is the method by which their tissue is taken from them. That process is not widely understood because the fetal researchers apparently don't want the public to know what they are doing.

Clinton is seen as having led — in conjunction with the Democratic Leadership Council (DLC) — the Democratic Party away from the left, towards a more moderate centrist position. During the 1990s, the Party was accused of abandoning its traditional base of support (unions, the working class, minorities) in pursuit of a center-right position, responding to — and funded by — corporate contributors, with the soccer mom representing his new base. The current quandary of the Democratic party is felt by many to be primarily due to its inability to define itself vis-�-vis the Republican Party and offer a clear alternative. Clinton was able to surmount this problem through sheer personal charisma, but his successors have been less successful.

[N]ow Sen. Clinton has decided to dig a bigger hole for herself by attacking the integrity and candor of Iowa caucus front-runner Obama. And Clinton is attacking a political candidate for his integrity and candor? As “Dandy” Don Meredith used to sing on “Monday Night Football” decades ago late in the fourth quarter: “Turn out the lights, the party’s over. All good things must come to an end.” Attacking Sen. Obama, a fresh face and generally positive campaigner, with the Clinton War Machine will remind voters once again why they have tired of Clintons posturing and preening at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Turn out the lights: After losing Iowa and New Hampshire, the Clinton party will be over for 2008.

On September 2, 2004, Clinton had an episode of angina and was evaluated at Northern Westchester Hospital. It was determined that he had not suffered a coronary infarction, and he was sent home, returning the following day for angiography, which disclosed multiple vessel coronary artery disease. He was transferred to Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in New York City, where he successfully underwent quadruple coronary artery bypass surgery on September 6, 2004. The medical team responsible for Clinton claimed that, had he not had surgery, he would likely have suffered a massive heart attack within a few months.

Last week, HuffPo reported that Bill Clinton might allegedly be CUTTING ALL TIES with his good buddy and fellow chaste admirer of the female form, Ron Burkle. Today, Radar, which is secretly owned by supermarket magnate Ron Burkle, ran a hilarious gallery of Bill Clinton's most unattractive friends and acquaintances with no news peg except, you know, "Bill Clinton's sure been in the news a lot lately, you guys noticed?" Weird, wild stuff.

Clinton told the story of how he was in Australia at Port Douglas on September 11th and how his daughter Chelsea was in downtown New York. He connected with every parent in the room when he talked about his feelings when he couldn't contact his daughter for three hours on that day.
