The crime is not sex, the evidence is sex. The crime is perjury! --- He didn't lie about sex. He lied to win a sexual harassment case!
THE CLINTON BODY COUNT
For those of you who read yesterday's Nealz Nuze -- and then read those articles about the strange deaths surrounding Bill Clinton -- tune in today. I'll go through the list on the air and see what the listeners think.
OUR DANGEROUS "CONSUMER DRIVEN SOCIETY"
Someone sent me a story about a recent appearance by Hillary Clinton in California. The story said that she broke into a big smile when a Harvard law professors, who was making a speech, mentioned our "consumer driven society." The professor also made reference to the fact that we had to come to terms with the idea that just because the majority of people in this country want to watch something on television doesn't mean that they ought to watch it.
Say what?
Usually these little stories just go screaming right through your mind before you can stop and really think about what is being said. Perhaps we all need to slow down a bit and try to understand what these left-wing extremists are saying.
First, this bit about what people "ought" to watch on television. The premise of this law professor's statement is that what people "ought" to watch and what they "want" to watch are two different things. A person dedicated to the concept of individual liberty wouldn't utter this sentence. They would believe that a person should watch what they want to. Nothing more.
Remember, the liberal intelligencia believes that the rest of us simply aren't smart enough to make decisions in our own lives. We aren't smart enough to plan for our own retirement, and we aren't smart enough to figure out what we need to watch on television. Can you imagine how enjoyable television would be if we were all watching the programs that this elitist Harvard law professor thought we should be watching?
Now .. about this "consumer driving society" idea. Hillary Clinton has spoken out against this. Maybe that's why she smiled when the law professor hit his leftist stride.
What does "consumer driven society" mean? it simply means that our economy is geared up to provide the consumers with the products, good and services that they want. The short definition is "supply and demand." It is the very essence of the free enterprise system; a system, by the way, that Hillary Clinton is not overly fond of. (Remember -- Hillary's own law professors referred to her as a doctrinaire socialist.)
So, if the consumers don't drive our economy, who does? If we don't decide what goods and services we want to consume, who, then, makes that decision for us?
There is only one answer, folks. Either we are free to drive and direct our own economic and social lives, or someone else does that for us. In the minds of this Harvard prof and The Smartest Woman in the World, that would be the government.
NEW SPIN --- THEY MADE ME DO IT
Here's another trial balloon the Clintonistas are floating. Let's see if this one works.
It was all the fault of those evil right-wing Republicans and their hideous conspiracy to destroy Clinton's presidency.
The New York Times Sunday Magazine reports that Clinton told aides that "he was so angry about the intrusiveness of Starr's inquires that he sought comfort in a relationship."
Yeah, I can see it now. "Hey, Monica. You know that evil Ken Starr has been making me feel so bad, how about pumping me up a bit!"
AN INTERESTING JUSTICE DEPARTMENT PRESS RELEASE
Back in April there was an interesting little case about a lady named Barbara Ann Battalino of Los Osos, California. Battalino was prosecuted by the Clinton Administration and eventually pleaded guilty to a charge of obstruction of justice.
The interesting thing is that usually the Justice Department immediately posts news releases on its web site when it obtains a guilty verdict or a guilty plea in a case such as this. In the Battalino matter, however, the press release was never posted.
Wonder why?
Well, the folks at The Washington Times wondered also. Last week the Times criticized the Justice Department for failure to post that press release. Within a few days the Justice Department relented. The release was finally posted, almost five months after the fact.

Now you understand why it wasn't posted in the first place, don't you?
WANT TO PROTECT CLINTON? VOTE FOR MICHAEL COLES
Just a quick reminder --- for those of you out there who think that Bill Clinton is an absolutely fantastic president who is responsible for every good thing that has happened in your life during the past six years. The Senate is going to be voting on whether or not to convict Clinton in an impeachment action next year. Michael Coles is a guaranteed vote for Bill Clinton. Remember --- a vote for Coles -- a vote for Clinton.
TEENAGERS! YOU CAN BE VIRGINS AGAIN!
According to the definition of sexual relations advocated by the President of the United States, it takes direct contact in order to have sex. It is the President's opinion that fondling a woman through her clothes is not sexual. Therefore ... if all of your sexual encounters have involved condoms, we can say that there has been no direct sexual contact. This means you are still a virgin! Congratulations! You're back in the market for a white wedding gown!
HOW TO FIGHT COMPULSORY VOLUNTEERISM
More and more government schools around the country are requiring forced, compulsory volunteerism in order to pass a class or graduate.
The Ayn Rand Institute is engaged in a campaign to abolish this compulsory volunteerism. It's pretty unique, actually. They are offering ARI Anti-Servitude Internships designed for students who object to forced sacrifice of their time, interests and values. In a delicious twist, these students can fulfill their volunteerism graduation requirements by fighting against volunteerism.
For more information on the Anti-Servitude Internships, just click here!
It's simple. This forced-volunteerism concept is nothing less than an extension of the liberal anti-individualist agenda. Our young people are being taught that their lives are not theirs to live. They, in fact, owe a portion of their lives to others.
Sorry --- I don't exactly agree.
BEWARE THE ADVANCE OF THE "WHITE PRIVILEGE" DEBATE!
This is little more than another spin on Dick Gephardt's "won life's lottery" scam.
Clintons race forum was a complete bust. All they could come up with was a report that urged a continuation of discrimination by government based on race, and something called "white privilege."
So -- what is going on here? I'll tell you what. Stand by for the "anti white-privilege" movement. We are going to be bombarded with the idea that us white folks don't really deserve all of the goodies we have worked for and earned. A University of Texas Journalism Professor named Robert Jensen (Oh no, another left-wing journalism professor) writes " .. the dirty little secret that we white people carry around with us every day .. in world of white privilege, some of what we have is unearned."
What's next? Are we going to come up with some government program that penalizes whites for their "white privilege?"
To show you how off-base this journalism professor is; he writes "Every time I walk into a store at the same time as a black man, and the security guard follows him and leaves me alone to shop, I am benefiting from white privilege."
What a crock.
In that scenario the security guard would be following the black man not because of the color of his skin, but because of what he knows of black culture. The cold, harsh, cruel fact is that a well-informed security guard knows that, all other things being equal, it is far more likely that a black person is going to engage in the art of shoplifting than a white person. If the statistics showed that a white person is more likely to be a shoplifter than a black person, the security guard would be following the law professor.
There are black cultures in this world, and in parts of the United States, where theft will not, under any circumstances, be tolerated. Likewise, there are white cultures where theft is an art form. Guess who the security guard would follow there?
If our shopping professor is benefiting from any white privilege here, it is a privilege born of coming from a culture that still widely condemns shoplifting. That, my friends, is not an unearned privilege.
