The Nightmare Called Bill Clinton Haunts On

Wednesday, January 31, 2001

Bill Clinton’s despicable legacy lives on.

It didn’t end when his aides vandalized the White House and Old
Executive Office Building, stripping “W” keys off computer keyboards,
sealing desk drawers closed with glue and redirecting computers to
porn sites.

It didn’t end with Bill and Hillary sneaking out of 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue with silverware, plates and God-knows-what-else hidden in
their suitcases.

And it didn’t end with the Clinton entourage stripping Air Force One
bare of coffee cups, glassware and logo towels during the flight from
Washington to New York.

No, Clinton continues to moon the American public and rip off
taxpayers every chance he gets.

The former President, one of the youngest ever to leave the White
House alive, plans to rent more than 8,000 square feet of prime office
space in Manhattan, signing a lease for the entire 56th Floor of New
York City’s Carnegie Tower at a cost of more than $700,000 a year to
American taxpayers.

That’s more than the cost we currently pay for all of the office space for
all of the other ex-presidents (Ford, Bush, Reagan and Carter).

“President Clinton’s office space would shatter all previous records for
former presidents, who are already living high on the taxpayer tab,” said
Pete Sepp of the National Taxpayers Union.

That’s our Bill. If there’s a record for ripping off the taxpayer, or
bringing the image of the Presidency to a new low, your can be sure he
will shatter it.

It wasn’t enough to bring shame to the Oval Office with perjury,
obstruction of justice and b---j--s from eager young interns. Clinton
continues to drop his pants and flash his ass to the world for all to see.
He doesn’t care. He’s Peck’s ultimate bad boy, the flashy rogue who
always gets away and thumbs his nose at all who shake their heads and
wonder how he does it.

From lying to the American public (“I did not have sex with that
woman”), perjuring himself before a grand jury, obstructing justice at
every turn and, finally, to selling pardons to the highest bidders, Clinton
has over and over again proven himself to be nothing more than
Arkansas trailer trash.

Here is a man who, along with his shameless wife, is more than $10
million in debt from legal bills alone, yet who manages to get not one,
but two, multi-million dollar mortgages for mansions in New York and
Washington and furnish them by openly soliciting lavish gifts from
political supporters.

Then he charges the federal government rent for the U.S. Secret
Service operations on his New York estate, rent which just happens to
be the same as his mortgage payment.

Now he plans to move into lavish, $700 grand-a-year offices in
Manhattan.

Yes, Bill Clinton has left Washington.

However, the legacy of that rotten, corrupt son-of-a-bitch will continue
to haunt (and cost) us for years to come.
