I did not watch William Jefferson Clinton's 1999 State of the Union Address live, in real time. I had better things to do that night, can't remember what, but I'm sure it was more interesting than watching Slick Willie try to weasle out of his responsibilities for lying to a grand jury and not exactly getting away with it. Definitely, since, it turned out on All Fool's Day--er, Lincoln's Birthday--he did get away with it!
Nor did I watch the controlled media in their liberal/socialist wisdom gloat over their "victory" over the forces of justice when they reported their buddy Bill will be around another year or two.
Or more, perhaps?
Which brings me to this byte bite: About all Mr. Bill did say in his State of the Union Address that had much to do with anything is, loud and clear, he's is NOT leaving! Period. He won't be found guilty, he knows it, (and now we know it) and he is NOT leaving the presidency! No matter what!
Now, does that mean I am suggesting that Clinton is going to be some kind of President-for-Life, a la Africa, or that he is going to barracade himself inside the White House, should his second term run out and be removed by term limitation law? Or, horror of horrors, will Gore win the next (last?) election and have as his running mate Bill Clinton, heaven forbid, and BOTH be returned to the White House in reverse positions?
In case anyone needs refreshing it was Clinton himself who suggested, during Nixon's impeachment proceedings, that Nixon should resign (see Not Necessarily Politically Correct, Nov-Dec OmegaZine) rather than embarrass the nation. Which makes Clinton, at best, a hypocrite. Here is why Clinton would never have considered resigning:
He wants to be in power. Pure and simple. That is all the man (and his wife) care about. When "they" picked this rather obscure politician from Arkansas to run in 1992, "they" picked the right guy for the job. Absolutely no integrity. He is in it, as the saying goes, for the power.
Why Clinton loves power so much, is harder to understand. How much power? Limitless? That is a possiblility. One has to understand the mentality of these two and why "they" love Billary so much. Both Bill and Hillary grew up and became politically active in the late sixties, at a time many consider the point of upheaval against the "old order" (remember Bob Dylan's song? "The old order is rapidly fading...the times they are a-changin' "). Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar and, there is ample evidence to suggest, led student protests in Britain against US involvement in Vietnam--which, at the time, was ILLEGAL! ( Aha! Then who allowed him to get away with something illegal in Britain? The Brit version of "they" perhaps?) He may also have worked as a Soviet KGB agent during those Rhodes Scholar days. According to a Texe Marrs book, "Big Sister is Watching You," Hillary Clinton was a Wellesley College follower of Sol Alinsky, of "Revolution Now!" fame, a philosopher about how the "new left" should seize power with or without violence. In those times they, and many of the folks around them, began to believe that they had the right to take power because it was in the world's interest that they do so (and I know, because I myself used to be involved with similar leftist activities. Remember my Meet the Editor profile? I said I was very left wing! Thus, I know the mentality of those I am talking about here.). Thus, what I am saying is, the power to tell everyone in the US and the world how to live is their religion. Power is their God, and they won't give it up! (Don't think Al and Tipper Gore are any different--remember how they wanted to regulate the lives of the young by banning certain rock music lyrics? Funny. We still had to deal with Satanic lyrics. Perhaps the lyrics that were banned were not immoral, but politically incorrect, lyrics instead? And know that as a rabid environmentalist Gore has the golden opportunity to end private property ownership in the US as per the as yet unsigned "UN Biodiversity Treaty" Gore has every intention of passing through when (not "if": the Republicans have now shown themselves beyond a shadow of a doubt they are loyal opposition at best, spineless dogmeat at worst, and thus will put up a spineless candidate) he gets elected in 2000. He says so in his book "Earth in the Balance.").
As amoral as Clinton appears to be by his actions, the man really does have a "moral" imperitive for staying in as President, no matter what. Yes, that sounds like he's a wanna-be dictator. But folks, you have to look at his side of the story from his point of view and his experiences. Just think: Bill Clinton really does think he's doing Americans and the world a favor by staying as US President! Dictator? Well, by golly, he might say, if that's what it takes to "straighten out" this world (for his power elitist so-called "New World Order" masters), then so be it!
So, in rememberance of Bokassa, Idi Amin, Mobutu, Mudabe and (dare I be so politically incorrect?) Mandela, this one's for you, Bill.
