THIS POS DOES NOT DESERVE THE OFFICE OR THE FAVOR OF THE PEOPLE: READ THIS FROM ANOTHER THREAD
Subject: Dear Mr. President

>Retired Army Officer 9/30/98
>Dear Mr. President:
>
>It's not about sex. If it were about sex, you would be long gone. Just
>like
>a doctor, attorney or teacher who had sex with a patient, client or
>student
>half his age, you would have violated the ethics of your office and
>would be
>long gone. Just like a Sergeant Major of the Army, Gene McKinney, who
>though
>found not guilty, was forced to resign amid accusations of sexual abuse.
>
>Remember the Air Force General you wouldn't nominate to be Chairman of
>the
>Joint Chiefs of Staff because he freely admitted to an affair almost 15
>years before, while he and his wife were separated? Unlike you, he was
>never accused of having a starry-eyed office assistant my daughter's age
>
>perform oral sex on him while he was on the phone and his wife and
>daughter
>were upstairs. If it were about sex, you should be subjected to the
>same
>horrible hearings that Clarence Thomas was subjected to because of the
>accusations of Anita Hill. The only accusation then was that he talked
>dirty to her; He didn't even leave semen stains on the dress. No, it's
>not
>about sex. It's about character. It's about lying. It's about
>arrogance.
>It's about abuse of power. It's about dodging the draft and lying about
>it.
>When caught in a lie by letters you wrote, you concocted a story that
>nobody
>believed. But we excused it and looked away. It's about smoking dope,
>and
>lying about it. "I didn't inhale," you said. Sure, and when I was 15
>and my
>buddies and I swiped a beer from an unwatched refrigerator, we drank
>from
>it, but we didn't swallow. "I broke no laws of the United States," you
>said. That's right, you smoked dope in England or Norway or Moscow;
>where
>you were demonstrating against the U.S.A. You lied, but we excused it
>and
>looked away. It's about selling overnight stays in the White House to
>any
>foreigner or other contributor with untraceable cash.
>It's about Whitewater and Jim and Susan McDougal and Arkansas, Gov.
>JimGuy
>Tucker and Vincent Foster and Jennifer Flowers and Paula Jones and Karen
>
>Willey and nearly countless others. It's about stealing the records from
>
>Foster's office while his body was still warm and putting them in your
>bedroom and "not noticing them" for two years. It's about illegal
>political
>contributions. It's about you and Al Gore soliciting contributions and
>selling influence at Buddhist temples and in the same Oval Office where
>Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt led their countries through the
>dark
>days of wars that threatened the very existence of our nation. But we
>excused you and looked away.
>It's about hiding evidence from Ken Starr, refusing to testify, filing
>legal
>motions, coaching witnesses, obstructing justice and delaying Judge
>Starr's
>inquiry for months and years, and then complaining that it has gone on
>too
>long. The polls agreed. Thank goodness that Judge Starr didn't read the
>polls, play politics or excuse you and look away. He held on to the
>evidence
>like a tenacious bulldog. Your supporters say that you've confessed
>your
>wrong doings and asked for our forgiveness. Listen, what you said on TV
>the
>night you testified to the grand jury was not a confession. Confession
>in
>the face of overwhelming evidence is not a confession at all. Not that
>it
>would make a lot of difference. A murderer who contritely confesses his
>
>crime is still a murderer. When your "confession" didn't sell, even to
>your
>friends, you became more forthcoming. Maybe someday you'll confess
>more,
>but probably not. You've established such pattern of lying that we
>can't
>believe you anymore. Neither can your cabinet, the Congress or any of
>the
>leaders of the nations of the world. When a leader's actions defame and
>
>emasculate our country as profoundly as yours have, it no longer a
>personal
>matter, as you claim. It's no longer a matter among you, your family
>and
>your God. By the way, I don't believe for a minute that Hillary was
>unaware
>of your sexual misadventures, abuses of power and pattern of lying. She
>has
>been a party to your wrong doings since Whitewater and Jennifer Flowers
>just
>as surely as she lied about the Rose law firm's billings and hid the
>Vincent
>Foster evidence in your bedroom for two years. Why? So she could share
>in
>the raw power that your office carries. The two of you probably lied to
>Chelsea, but that is a matter among you, your family and your God.
>Remember the sign over James Carvill's desk during the l992 campaign?
>It said, "It's the economy, stupid!" Place this sign over your desk:
>It's about character, stupid!" No, it's not about sex, Mr.. President.
>If
>it were, you would be long gone. It's about character; but we have to
>live
>with your filth, lies and arrogance for a while longer. Your lies,
>amorality
>and lack of character have been as pervasive as they have been
>despicable,
>so we have no reason to believe that you will quietly resign and go
>away.
>You'll count on half-truths and spin-doctors to see you through, the
>country
>be damned. It has always worked before. We excused you and looked the
>other
>way.
>No more, we've had enough. You betrayed us enough. You have made every
>elected official, minister, teacher, diplomat, parent and grandparent in
>the
>country apologize for you and explain away your actions. Now go away,
>and
>let us show them that our country was not without morals. It was just
>that
>you were. Let us show them that America was not the problem. William
>Jefferson Clinton was. Go away, Mr. President. Leave us alone. And
>when
>you leave, know that your legacy to the United States of America will be
>a
>stain on the Office of the President that is as filthy as the stain on
>Monica's dress. It will take a lot of scrubbing to make it clean again.
>
>>From a Retired Army Officer, who served as public affairs officer at
>Fort
>Rucker from 1989 to 1991 and now lives in Ozark, Alabama.
>Suggestion: Send this to Your whole e-mail list and just maybe, We can
>change those polls that refuse to lower Slick Willie's approval ratings.
>
>The "Spin Man" sucked-in a lot of voters, the times gave Him that
>opportunity, and with Hillary's help and expertise, it's history. Now
>that
>all "HE" did for the economy is coming un-glued, and his lack of
>national
>and global confidence has eroded, do You really want this "couple"/man
>remain in the White House to further cripple/paralyze what USED to be
>the
>strongest nation that has had the privilege to grace the face of this
>Earth.
>I think not. Even if You were one of those that did vote for Billy, it's
>
>time to come to the realization of "Darn, maybe I made a mistake". Can
>You
>be that self-critical?
