If You Could Ask President Clinton One Thing....

[THUNDER HANDS]

Poll question: If You Could Ask President Clinton One Thing....

You're alone in a room with Bill Clinton. You have five minutes for him to reply to one question of yours. And he has to reply truthfully and honestly. No BS or spin.

What's your question?

(and assume that he'd actually tell you, since you're probably not going to ask him a question in real life anyway).

:)

[Maple]

1. I'd ask

WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING OF???

[7th_Sephiroth]

30. other

wana go to jamaca mon and get some premium ganj?

[Superfly]

2. Spit or swallow? (Monica)

:evilgrin:

I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist.

[IranianDemocrat]

22. Does she give good head?

?

[Swede]

3. We all have our flaws,so I would ask a political question.

[Maple]

10. That was not a 'flaw'

and it screwed up his entire presidency and so many things that needed doing, and could have been done ...if the time hadn't been wasted chasing skirts.

[Mandate My Ass]

11. no time was wasted chasing skirts

lots of time and energy was wasted sniffing Clinton's crotch.

[diplomats]

13. I suspect Clinton spent considerably less time "chasing skirts"

than the GOP did chasing and harassing him. Talk about wasting time and money!

[alphafemale]

4. What Were You Thinking????

You Stupid, STUPID *&%$###***!!!!!!

ARRRGH!

[UrbScotty]

5. I'd ask about Hillary, of course.

[Guaranteed]

6. Hee hee!

I bet she's an animal

[diplomats]

9. I wouldn't ask about Monica

because I know what he'd say. But I'd love to ask something about Hillary, or his true feelings about Bush, etc.

[david_vincent]

7. "Why don't we get outta here and go get some brewskis and BBQ?"

n/t

[FlashHarry]

8. What were you thinking????

I mean, seriously! Your legacy was secure! Twenty-two million jobs! Unparallelled prosperity! Peace! You're probably the smartest man to hold the office--at least this century. You knew the Republicans were gunning for you. Hell, they've dogged you since before you took office, redoubling their efforts when they took Congress in '94. Why, oh why did you have to do it? More to the point, why did you deny it? I don't care about the 'under oath' bit--that wasn't germane and should never have even come up--but why did you deny it to us, your loyal constituents? You could have said, "though I think it's wholly inappropriate for the question to be asked in the first place, I have to tell you that I did, in fact, have an innapropriate sexual relationship with Mr. Lewinsky. For that, I am truly sorry and ask the forgiveness of you, the American people." A few weeks of furor and then it would have been over. We know that Newt and the boys weren't exactly clean themselves. Once that came out, they would've let it blow over (pardon the pun). You would have emerged a flawed but honest man, at the same time, denying them their ammunition.

Aw, hell. I forgive you. I still think history will treat you as a great, great man. I mean, seriously, next to this shitbag we have in office now, you should be beatified as a friggin' saint-in-waiting. Sorry for the rant, Mr. President. I just had to get that off my chest. No matter. We'll get 'em in '04...

[diplomats]

12. I like your rant

and the Big dog probably wouldn't mind a bit. :)

[montana_hazeleyes]

17. I agree this is

a great rant and sums it up well. I bet he's says these things to himself alot.

[VermontDem2004]

36. ....

but why did you deny it to us, your loyal constituents?

I don't care, his job is not to be honest about his sex life, his job is to do his job which he was doing. No one gets fired Intell for having an affair.

[dolo amber]

38. Exactly

We didn't elect him to be the pope, we elected him to be the President. And at that he did a stellar job.

[The Backlash Cometh]

14. When are you going to write your book?

And would you please provide details to defend your record, which the right-wingers have fought so hard to destroy with disinformation.

[Dogmudgeon]

15. The heck with Monica

I'd ask him:

"Bill, you know what's happening in the world, and in America, these days. What would you do if you were still president? More to the pont, what should we do, we who are not president, given the president we now have?"

--bkl

[toddzilla]

16. what's up with NAFTA??

[Loyal]

19. waste of a question

nt

[KG]

18. hey bill, when are you going to apologise to al gore

for the way your self-indulgent, ego stroking, affair with a young intern, while the whole world was watching you, cost him a slam-dunk, walk-off victory in 2000?

[Loyal]

20. What do you really think of GWB?

nt

[seventhson]

21. Mena Airport: Did you cover for Bush? Is THAT why you got the WH?

Did you profit from it?

Did you cover it up for Bush?

Did you know Barry Seal?

Could you have had Bush I sent away???

Did you fail to do so because they had dirt on you about Mena.

Or was it just the pussy? Too much. Too good to blow the whistle on the guys who let you win?

Why did Clark's firm - The arkansan stevens group - finance Bush with saudi money and finance YOU later?

Why are you so cool yet so uncool.

Why did you do the welfare reform act which is now KILLING millions of people in poverty and utter despair?

[DEM FAN]

23. Can You Slip Back Into The White House.

;-)

[populistmom]

24. Truthfully

I've always had a little 'thing' for him. I'd ask him if he's ready to start another scandal? :evilgrin:

[Piperay]

32. Hehehe, that's a GOOD one...

I always thought Clinton incredably hot. :9 I even had some erotic dreams about him when he first became prez and one reaction I had when the scandal broke was feeling abit jealous of Monica. :argh:

[ironflange]

25. Did you ever smoke that cigar?

You could get a bundle for it on Ebay, especially if it's Cuban. Even just the butt.

[MissMarple]

26. What is really going on with George, Halliburton, PNAC, and Iraq?

.

I think he knows.

[Sufi Marmot]

27. "Do you ever lose any sleep over the 800,000 dead Rwandans?"

The State Department under Clinton knew that the situation in East Africa was deteriorating rapidly and it did nothing to prevent the massacres. Neither did the rest of the world, but still...a couple of phone calls from the White House and 5000 UN peacekeepers would have airborne...

I voted for him twice and would much rather have him in the White House than *, but this was by far his greatest moral failing, not Monica...

-SM

[CBHagman]

40. I agree with you wholeheartedly

I'd want to ask him if he had any regrets and what goals he has for the future.

Okay, so that's TWO questions. Sue me.

[DoNotRefill]

28. You were the leader of the Free World...

an incredibly attractive and powerful man, able to pick and choose who you were naughty with from a HUGE segment of the population. So why all the ugly trailer trash? JFK nailed Marilyn Monroe. You sort-of skirted around nailing MONICA?!?!?

:WTF: :WTF: :WTF: :WTF: :WTF: :WTF:

[Myra]

29. Other = ...

...Why did you support Welfare Reform and NAFTA?

[Piperay]

31. I go with the Monica one...

why oh why couldn't he have kept the zipper up?!? :argh: :-(

[BiggJawn]

33. Can I have your "rejects"? N/T

[LuLu550]

34. when you knew the right wing was trying to crucify you..

why did you supply them with the nails?

[bif]

35. What do you really think of the Shrub

He never bashes bush or this administration in public. The ultimate politician. But privately,I'd really like to know what he thinks.

[Padraig18]

37. Do you miss Buddy?

I bet he still feels awful about it.. :(

[mlawson]

39. "Which Dem has the best chance of beating * next year?"

As a master politician, perhaps the best ever, he would KNOW. I would immediately support that person, from now on, whomever it is.

Yeah, I know HE would have the best chance, but that is impossible for now.
