Bumper Stickers
Sunday, April 30th, 2006 -- J. DoeToday I saw a bumper sticker that said ‘When Clinton Lied, Nobody Died’.
I assume the owners of this beautiful bumper sticker are Democrats and would like other people to know it and to also vote Democratic. However a bumper sticker that refers to the moment when the last Democratic president, Bill Clinton, lied in front of the Judiciary committee which is illegail if not immoral, just doesn’t make sense to me.
I voted for Bill Clinton in both presidential elections in which he was a candidate. I don’t think he was the greatest president the US ever had, but he was a good president, and when he lied to the American Public about his sexual activities I think it was a lowpoint of his 8 year presidency. Lying under oath is a crime. I really don’t care about his sex life, but lying under oath is a crime. Period. Out of 8 years of a decent presidential career all the writers of that bumper sticker could think of was the lowpoint ? The illegal moment? Why highlight that moment.
What is the purpose of that bumper sticker? Even if you believe that the current US president lied about WMDs to get US troops into Iraq, is stating that the ex-Democratic leader is a liar going to win any points? Does it make him a better person? I mean remember that 98 senators also voted to send the troops to Iraq and many of them were democratic too. They were probably not liars though.
What a waste of ink.

Careful, careful, careful. You are starting to sound like a Republican! Which reminds me of the difference between a Republican and a Democrat. Experience. Most people start out being Democrat and with experience, they become Republicans. A Republican is usually an “experienced” Democrat.
I hate, hate, HATE bumper stickers. I never liked the idea of junking up a perfectly nice car by plastering it with stickers. Aren’t there sticker books for stickers?
Hope all is well on your side of the pond. Sounds like there was a big mess yesterday with the protests. Hey, if I can get into Italy and stay in Italy the right way (after jumping through all the hoops), it should be a snap for the Mexicans. What a mess!
So what if the President had his dick sucked? Despite lying about his sexual happenings he was able to run your country without unremarkable disapproval ratings.
Look at the fossil fuel loving President you have now. He can’t even say nuclear without stumbling over his own wording, and you are complaining about the past. It’s done buddy, focus on what is happening to your country now.
Personally, I like the bumper sticker that says, “Germans supported their war too.” And the one that says, “I was born correctly the first time,” and that one that states, “Come the rapture, can I have your car?”
You are whining and bitching about a bumper sticker. You spent a good three paragraphs sharing your disapproval of one bumper sticker.
Firstly, I am an atheist, but that does not mean that I need feel the need to complain about every, “Born-again” and “Jesus loves me” bumper sticker I see. I don’t even acknowledge them. Secondly, it was a mistake of Clinton to lie, and it was a mistake to not admit to inhaling, but take a look at your other past Presidents. Nixon just continued to ignore questioning, avoiding the chance to lie (most of the time), along with your president du jour.
Now to the point. Before you post another blog look over your writing. Make sure that your punctuation is before a set of quotes. I thought this was a basic of grade seven but obviously you never learned how to punctuate a proper sentence.
Illegal. How is it possible that you spelt it incorrectly the first time but not the second?
Julian, or Beth, whatever (because you’re the same person). Your life in Anchorage, Alaska, must be really boring if you have nothing better to do than leaving such comments.
By the way, is your real name Julian or Beth ? Probably neither.
