"I'm Mad as Hell and I'm Not Going to Take it Anymore!" Remember "Network"? Watch it again real soon; compare today's Cable and TV news. That movie was dead on. Today, Truth, Justice & the American Way are all in peril and I am mad as hell. Here are my cantankerous takes on recent news and politics and other things that go bump in my brain.

We're Still Just Talking about a Blowjob

I can not believe what I have been hearing the last few days.

It seems that President Clinton was responsible for 9/11 because he was so overwhelmed with the Monica Lewinsky scandal.

Who came up with this canard? Bill Maher was talking about this tonight on his HBO show Real Time with. . .

The soon to air ABC miniseries on 9/11 makes this claim.

President Clinton lied about getting a blowjob. Get over it already. How can anyone compare that to the body count Bushy boy has racked up?

At least President Clinton and his advisors tried to devise a strategy to deal with Bin Laden. Bush didn't pay attention to Bin Laden for an entire YEAR after being elected. On 9/11 Bush didn't even know that muslims were divided between Sunni and Shia.

There's certainly blame to share for 9/11 and plenty to go around for everyone, but how's this for a little blame-throwing:

If the REPUBLICANS had not wasted so much of Bill Clinton's time over a non-consequential blow-job, with the DELIBERATE INTENT of blocking Clinton's agenda, and if the REPUBLICANS had spent their own time investigating and overseeing this Country's security and defense instead of investigating a PRIVATE AND VOLUNTARY SEXUAL ACT BETWEEN TWO CONSENTING ADULTS then MAYBE 9/11 might never have happened.

In other words, if Bill Clinton is to blame because he was too busy dealing with the Lewinsky scandal, than it is the Republicans who are to blame for creating a scandal out of nothing to keep the President from doing his job. They are trying to suggest that the Scandal they created from whole cloth, was the President's fault, not theirs.

The amazing thing is that the Democratic response has been lame. It's been "the ABC movie isn't factual". Great it isn't factual - but the damage is being done at a deeper level. We're being swift-boated again, and it's so obvious.
