<<That sort of liberalism struggled to take its final breath about 30 years ago. It is long dead.>> When you provide protected status to people, who would otherwise be considered less competent (less able to compete) you give them the illusion of invincible power. In the recesses of their collective minds they form the need to develop institutionalized protective barriers to being exposed as incompetent. Therein lies an element of the irrational defensiveness of the icon "bill clinton." This was not the intent of equal opportunity efforts 30 years ago but it is certainly the outcome. Yes thirty years ago liberals stood up for the powerless. Following that, jargon like empowerment came into vogue and raising self-esteem was a big issue. Now we have empowered the less than competent with fragile self-esteem. Analysis of performance, once thought to be the vehicle of self as well as organizational improvement, is forbidden by the doctrine of the liberal. They are tribal and they know how to protect their own. If you come from their camp then the protected status applies, if you don't, as in the case of Clarence Thomas, then you are not afforded protected status. They have taken the "judge not lest ye be judged" principle and corrupted it. Of course we have no business judging one another's souls, but behavior and performance is an entirely different matter.

Posted with permission: I am troubling you again because Larry Nichols and I have stumbled across an approach that just may succeed in taking Bill Clinton to the wall. Rush Limbaugh was crying out yesterday for a solution like this. Here it is: Larry and I have done a lot of interviews in the past two weeks regarding our writ of mandamus effort to discredit the Senate verdict. Our problem has proven to be this: the inability to find a Washington, D.C. lawyer willing to litigate the writ of mandamus in federal court in Washington. That is a requirement of that approach. No one wants to do it, and federal procedural rules require it. Our heart has been in the right place, but we have run into obstacles. But just like a successful football coach makes adjustments at halftime, we have an adjustment here that can win the game. Please read this, because you will be convinced. The Arkansas Model Rules of Professional Conduct for Attorneys are very clear that a single incident of rape, let alone a serial pattern of sexual misconduct, proves a lawyer unfit to practice law. The decisions on this are vastly on our side. There is no statute of limitations on the rapes when it comes to a Bar grievance, and other victims can be subpoenaed. The latest polls show that the overwhelming majority of Americans who saw Juanita Broaddrick's "Dateline" interview on NBC believe her. Oh, yes, there are the CNN and other bogus polls that say a majority do not believe her, but these polls included people who either did not see the broadcast and/or did not even know of the rape allegation! The Arkansas Bar must, absolutely must, proceed against Bill Clinton, because of the credible evidence that Juanita [Hickey] Broaddrick was raped. If the Bar does not proceed, then we go for a writ of mandamus ordering the Bar to proceed, and sworn testimony can be compelled from the President even at that early phase. This is what we want: to put this pathological liar under oath again and see if he will perjure himself again about sex with a woman, in this instance a rape. The target here is Bill Clinton, not the Senate, and it is a big, fat target. It is the right target. Bill Clinton might decide to surrender his law license, just as Richard Nixon did in 1976, rather than put up a fight, but those of you too young to remember forget what a bludgeon that disbarment was in the hands of the liberal elites. Disbarment may be the only sanction anyone ever secures against this sicko. The media is interested. Larry and I have already had an encouraging response from the media: ABC contacted me about the Arkansas Bar proceedings. Chris Ruddy's NewsMax.com is currently reporting it at "Clinton Scandals," and Larry and I are making the radio talk show rounds ginning up listeners to send their own separate grievances to the Arkansas Bar. The Bar is receiving more grievances. Make the trickle a torrent. Here is what you can do. Send the following two sentence grievance (use your own words if you like) to the Arkansas Bar: "This is my Bar grievance against Bill Clinton. His rape of Juanita Broaddrick proves he is unfit to hold a law license." That's it. Send your grievance, along with your name, address, and phone number to: James Neal Committee on Professional Conduct Justice Building, Room 2200 625 Marshall Street Little Rock, Arkansas 72201 FAX to 501-374-1853 If you do that, you will help this country. Lots of grievances will tactically strengthen our hand in the writ of mandamus action, as it will show public outrage that the Arkansas Bar puts its "favorite perverted son" ahead of justice. If you send your grievance in today, you will be in good company. The Southeastern Legal Foundation, which so ably has represented the heroic former FBI Agent Gary Aldrich (Unlimited Access), filed its original grievance months ago and just amended it to include the rape grounds. Matt Glavin at SLF told me this yesterday. We're taking Bill Clinton to the wall on this one. It may be our last but best chance. The Washington Times published my letter to the editor twenty months ago that nothing substantive would ever come out of Ken Starr's office to clean up the mess in the White House. I stand by that. You know why we have a better shot than Starr? Because we common citizens bring a sense of moral outrage to this that academic, hyper-fastidious lawyers can't muster. And if you think this is just a vendetta by conservatives against a Democrat President, think again. The New York Post today reports a book about to be published that Israel's Mossad had tape recordings of the phone sex between Monica and Bill and used the tapes to blackmail Clinton and our security people into not rooting out a Mossad agent deep in the White House. Starr knew this and did nothing. Is our Bar grievance gambit "just about sex?" No, it is about the physical safety of our children. I have a six-year-old boy. I want to take out Bill Clinton, by all legal and proper means, to make it more likely that he himself might live to have a family. Let's disbar Bill Clinton. If we prove what we think we can prove in that proceeding, then he's toast. We'll then break out the marmalade. The drinks will be on me. Jack Thompson, Attorney
