Revision History For: Clinton Edifice

Return to Clinton Edifice
 
The Clinton Presidential Library planned for Little Rock is in big trouble. I read the Neal Travis article in The New York Post recently and one of the big donors believed to have pledged between $5 million and $10 million has said: "Forget it." The potential patrons of the Clinton legacy are miffed at the soaring expense of building the library, which could reach $125 million..

The "Washington Post" recently claimed that between $20 million and $130 million has been pledged for the Clinton shrine, but it looks like that figure is wildly inflated. Hollywood mogul David Geffen even had to cancel a fundraiser at his home for lack of interest. LOL!!!
" It just seems obscene to be trying to raise so much money for a monument to himself," one Left Coast supporter told Travis.

Obscene? Clinton? Nah....

"I've chipped in for the Clinton defense fund." the supporter went on to complain. " I've contributed a heap to the Democratic Party, and I'm supporting Al Gore. But I don't like their idea that I'm automatically going to help pay for some edifice down in Arkansas."

You know the easy way to solve the cost problem for the building.

1) Scrap all Clinton's dishonest statements and documents during his Presidency.
2) Exclude all sexually-oriented materials having to do with the Clinton Administration.

Take both those steps and you could house the Clinton Library in a locker at the Little Rock bus depot.
