Subject: Difference of 8 years

Stuff you'll never hear about. True but unreported. Interesting and very frustrating to many of us.. Particularly the pardons - of tax evaders, bank fraud and other felons - and the headlines. Unfair and unconscienably horrible treatment of an honorable and good man and our now ex-President by the press.







Yesterday:(Jan. 20th, 2009)

1. Outgoing President George W. Bush quietly boards his helicopter and leaves for Texas , commenting only: "Today is not about me. Today is a historical day for our nation and people."

Eight years ago yesterday:

1. Outgoing President Bill Clinton schedules two separate radio addresses to the nation, and organizes a public farewell speech/ rally in downtown Washington D.C. scheduled to directly conflict with incoming President Bush's inauguration ceremony.

Yesterday:

2.. President Bush leaves office without issuing a single Presidential pardon, only granting a commutation of sentence to two former border patrol agents convicted of shooting a convicted drug smuggler. He does not grant any type of clemency to Scooter Libby or any other former political aide,
ally, or business partner.

Eight years ago yesterday:

2. President Clinton issues 140 pardons and several commutations of sentence on his final day in office. Included in these are: billionaire financier, convicted tax evader, and leading Democratic campaign contributor Marc Rich; Whitwater scandal figure Susan McDougal; Congressional Post Office Scandal figure and former Democratic

Congressman Dan Rostenkowski; convicted bank fraud, sexual assault and child porn perpetrator and former Democratic Congressman Melvin Reynolds; and convicted drug felon Roger Clinton, the President's half-brother.

Yesterday:

3. The Bush daughters leave gift baskets in the White House bedrooms for the Obama daughters, containing flowers, candy, stuffed animals, DVD's and CD's, and heartfelt notes of encouragement and advice for the young girls on how to prepare for their new lives in the White House.

Eight years ago Yesterday:

3. Clinton and Gore staffers rip computer wires and electrical outlets from the White House walls, stuff piles of notebook papers into the White House toilets, systematically remove the letter "W" from every computer key-pad in the entire White House, and damage several thousand dollars worth of furniture in the White House master bedroom.

Eight years

Clinton & Gore staffers taking all kind of things like towels, ashtrays, plates and anything else that was not nailed down that had the Presidental Seal on them from The White House and Airforce One to put on ebay to sell.


Headlines On This Date 4 Years Ago:

"Republicans spending $42 million on inauguration while troops Die in unarmored Humvees"

"Bush extravagance exceeds any reason during tough economic times"

"Fat cats get their $42 million inauguration party, Ordinary Americans get the shaft"

Headlines Today:

"Historic Obama Inauguration will cost only $170 million"

"Obama Spends $170 million on inauguration; America Needs A Big Party"

"Everyman Obama shows America how to celebrate"

"Citibank executives contribute $8 million to Obama Inauguration"

The Dems just don't GET it!! It's all about them, while they skewer every Republican they can, and our beloved "free" press worships every frigged up thing they do.
Bush may have made some mistakes, but I believe he is a good man, while sleezy, slimy, Slick Willy and his pit bull Hillary are a couple of power whores. Hillary would sell her soul to run this country and Bill would gladly sign it over!!

Interesting observation Gary. You put a lot of thought into that post. Congratulations!
Maybe if you put half of that thought into repaying the debts you owe for knives you received, sold and never paid for, this world would be a better place.
Oh yea, honoring the contracts you entered into and refuse to pay for, wouldn't be a bad thing either.
I'm sure you would have, but it must be slick willy and hillary's fault you're such a scumbag.
Next time you feel like calling someone sleezy and slimy,, take a good look in the mirror first.
I would tell you to sell your soul, but it still wouldn't be enough to repay the debts you owe esteem members of this community.
