Imagine, if you will...
Roger Clinton, younger brother of President Bill Clinton, detailed lucrative business deals and admitted to engaging in sex romps with women in Asia in a deposition taken in March as part of his divorce from now ex-wife Sharon Clinton.According to legal documents disclosed today, Sharon Clinton's lawyers questioned Roger Clinton closely about the deals, especially a contract with Grace Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp., a firm backed by Jiang Mianheng, the son of former Chinese President Jiang Zemin, that would pay him $2 million in stock over five years.
Marshall Davis Brown, lawyer for Sharon Clinton, expressed bewilderment at why Grace would want Clinton and at such a high price since he knew little about the semiconductor business.
"You have absolutely no educational background in semiconductors do you?" asked Brown in the March 4 deposition, which was seen by Reuters.
"That's correct," Clinton, 48, responded.
"And you have absolutely over the last 10, 15, 20 years not a lot of demonstrable business experience that would bring about a company investing $2 million in you?"
"I personally would object to the assumption that they're investing $2 million in me," said Clinton, who went on to explain that he knew a lot about business and had been working in Asia for years.
Of course, that never happened. This did. Where the hell are all the law-and-order Republicans on this?

Damfacrats should be outraged but this post just makes us smile for some reason.

I don't even know what you're driving at here. At first, this page was informative, even if the readership isn't the most intelligent.
Now, it's just one stretching Bush slam after the other.
*Yawn*
The funnies are more educational.

Okay - my flamebait for the week (I try not to discourse with Dittoheads - too hard to cut through the fanaticism, but my patience wears thin. Please forgive the stream of consciousness post):
What the Editor is trying to point out here is that with the Democrats, you might be chastised for being a Democratic pro-gun or anti-abortion advocate, but at least that is in line with the party principles. With the Conservatives, it seems that the rules only apply to non-Conservatives, and if you preach the party line, you can get away with anything. Do as I say, not as I do - look at multiple divorcee Newt for example; while preaching family values, he divorces his umpteenth wife coincidentally when she tells him she has cancer. Family values are only good as a sound bite - they are discarded as soon as they are inconvenient.
Gotta love them morals those conservatives claim to believe in; Rush preaches intolerance right up to the point where he needs some forgiveness to continue is media career. Only a Dittohead would forgive their false God for his moral lapses while condemning others for the same lapses.
"While it's untrue that all Conservatives are stupid, it is true that most stupid people are Conservative."
Did you know that 78% of Republicans have recurring nightmares? Must be because of all that fear of change and the unknown; they like the old, it was their favorite.
The party of fiscal responsiblity has for years lambasted the "tax and spend Democrats." Well, looking at the current government (of which the Conservatives control *each and every branch,*) it looks like it was smoke and mirrors - they are turning out to be the tax-cut and spend party, leaving the check to the next generations. Remember the 'Contract with America'? Sounded pretty good at the time, except now that the Conservatives are in power, they've decided that it's inconvenient and have dismantled it. Lovely fiscal responsibility these folks have; they'd rather mortgage the future than take responsibility and pay the bills now.
The bottom line is, the Dittoheads have been sold a bill of goods; they've been told if they vote for the Republicans, then they'll become rich and priveledged. Lucky for the GOP leadership, the Dittoheads are too stupid to know that the only people they are making rich is the GOP leadership and the only priveledge is being consolidated by those who already had it.
There - I've given you both something to rally against while offering you something educational. Everything I've stated is fact, albeit slanted towards the negative. Of course, you'll probably just call me a bleeding-heart and dismiss everything I say out of hand. It's easiest to shout louder than try and converse. Besides, it makes you feel good to feel righteous, doesn't it?

Mixer, you forgot to mention, 73% of all serial murderers vote Republican. I wonder if the other 27% watch the O'Reilly factor?

Like I said - my blog, my stories.
Do you have a good explanation why this company wanted to pay the president's brother 2 million bucks - while Neil had no expertise whatsoever in their line of business? Want to take a stab at it?
I'm interested in what you'd think they wanted to pay him all that money for.

Too bad you're the one bringing that average down, troll...
It is painfully obvious what the editor is getting at - anyone who supports the murdering cokeheaded deserter is a traitor to the Unuited States of America! Anyone who tries to compare the previous president to the usurping thief is blinded by their hatred of all things Clinton, and their fanatical support of the worst president in history.
Do we need to use words of one syllable so they can fit into that idiotic melon on top of your shoulders?
Now, it's just one stretching Bush slam after the other. *Yawn*
So many things to be critical of - so little time. Unlike the last guy, who lied about a blow job to a bunch of adulterous Repugnicants.
The funnies are more educational.
This Modern World and Tom Toles come to mind. Yes, they are more educational, and closer to telling us some of the truth, than the media whores currently controlled by the Repugnicants.
It's nice to be able to post something like this in a place where it won't get deleted automatically because it portrays the cokeheaded deserter as less then the son of god. Where even braindead Repugnicant shills like you can be heard (and shown to be the mindless fools that you are), instead of deleted and banned out of hand.
Why don't you go back under your bridge, and post your mindless spew over there, troll? I'm sure the FReepers have hundreds of posts of your dreck over there.
You, sir, are a hypocrite and an ass. If this was a Democrat who did what Kneel Bush did, morans like you would be demanding his head be put on a pike in front of the White House.

Throughout this post (Clinton/Asia/Sex) don't uou mean BUSH. Is AP and other media wrong? It is Neil Bush is it not? Please correct.

Gerry,
That's kinda my point - imagine the uproar that would have ensued had Roger Clinton been taking money from the 'Red Chinese' for essentially doing nothing. The Right would be calling for his head on a pike.
Since it's a Bush brother, none of these people who went into fainting spells over Al Gore's supposed 'connections' with the Chinese can be bothered to summon their righteous anger.
Notice none of our conservative visitors answered my question about why the Chicoms would be paying the president's bro 2 million smackers.
They avoid answering like the friggin' plague.
