Right. He even had a personal bodyguard assigned to keep the Senator's
son safe.
Cite your source please. This is news to me. I'd also like to point out,

since many think that being a journalist would be safe, that during the
famous TET offensive of 1968, the viet cong(bad guys) were running down
the corridors of the USA embassy,shooting people.

Senator John Kerry, Lt., U.S. Navy 1966-70; Silver Star, Bronze Star
with Combat V, and three awards of the Purple Heart for his service in
combat


Two of which may well have been self-inflicted. That story promises to
be amusing.

Anti-Kerry people always complain about bogus Purple Heart medals,
but never the silver and bronze stars. Very interesting.


At least his brief Vietnam experiences are well documented, in nicely
re-enacted 8mm home movies.

W is more humble. He describes himself as a "not very good jet pilot."

Robin William's Plan for Peace..........

I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of a plan
for peace. So, here's one plan.

1) The US will apologize to the world for our "interference" in their
affairs, past & present. You know, Hitler,

Oh well, so much for this thread...

I didn't either. But I just don't understand how Bill got to be sexy

Clinton *is* a very charismatic man, and even more so in person. I had
a chance to shake hands with him yesterday afternoon. A helluva lot

Read the book "Primary Colors" or see the movie... I've done both.
You'll immediately recognize it as being about Clinton. Travolta is
MAGNIFICENT in the movie!

Yeah. Time was that the repub leadership had to plot to keep Newt G
from visiting the White House, because he was falling under Bill's
spell. He is some sort of supernatural force.

Charisma without principles is dangerous. Rhetoric, looks, music, and
emotion can sway feelings in most any direction. I think JFK and
television began the US craze for electing people just because they
look and sound cool; Viet Nam was our reward.

I recently saw a talk by Dick Morris. He said that Bill and Hillary
have one overriding thing that binds them together: Hillary's great
love for Bill, and Bill's great love for Bill.

I thinks it's really all about power. They're *both* power hungry and
know that they *each* have more power if they stay together. I don't
think there's any *love* involved.

Dick Morris was fired from the 1996 presidential campaign for letting a
prostitute listen in on his phone conversations with Mr. Clinton. Such ad
hominem towards Clinton has been Morris' distinction ever since.

I understand that Bill let certain lower-level [1] parties listen in
on his official business. The difference between Bill and Dick is that
Morris is both perceptive and funny. Oh, the other difference is that
Dick lost his job, and Bill didn't.

But most everybody who has spent time in the White House winds up
writing books to cash in on the experience, don't they?
