When presidential memoirs come out, that is fairly considered news, not entertainment.

1. Thank you for introducing us to Gennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, Monica Lewinsky, Dolly Kyle Browning, Kathleen Willey, and Juanita Broaddrick. Are there any others that we should know about?
I think your conservative pals are much more to blame for those folks having been introduced to the American public. There were rumors about other presidents (e.g., George H.W. Bush, JFK) but their political opponents didn't think to seize on them in the same way.

I like the last sentence, and how quickly the author goes from decrying the sordid revelations to revelling in the prospect of more.

2. Thank you for teaching my 8-year-old about oral sex. I had really planned to wait until he was about 10 or so to discuss it with him, but now he knows more about it than I did as a senior in college.
Clinton lied about this to keep it secret, but someone else kept asking questions. Who, bilmore, who?

11. Thnk you for failing to go after Osama Bin Laden when he was offered to you by the Sudan - we all appreciate your leadership.
You are so bitter about Clinton that you would take the self-serving word of the Islamist dictators of Sudan -- the people who were harboring OBL -- just to make Clinton look bad.

I can understand that you guys are too lazy to inform yourself on this stuff, but why advertise it? Read, e.g., Ghost Wars and you can learn the truth about this crap.
