years ago, when the clintons first moved to the white house, back in 1992,
ole Babs was caught making long distance phone calls all the way from Houston back to some staffer at the white house (someone whose job is supposed to be neutral and in of those jobs which is not supposed to be replaced every time a new administration comes in) ... anyhow, when she was caught making her little phone calls and talking to said staffer, she claimed that she was calling because she needed help with her COMPUTER!!!!

prime example of bush lying to cover their derrieres ... i never believed her story. i wondered WHY she was really calling, and given how the bush history has evolved ...like their love for power and the white house, j'accuse ole Babs of calling the white house to spy on the clintons!!! and who knows what other ill thing to plot for.

2. I doubt that Babs works that way. She is an enforcer.
I can actually see a first lady calling the staffer to get info on how to run a computer. Especially if she had worked with the person.

More common than not with the elderly.

4. nothing with the bushes is as sweet as having no ulterior motive.
the bushes had not cut the cord that tied to power and she was still holding on to that cord .... it seems more logical that she would be calling on her staff in Houston to help her with her computer in Houston... but, bless your thinking--she may have been clean as a whistle and not have had any ulterior motives. i doubt it.

5. The date's off.
The Clinton's didn't move into the White House until 1993.

7. Sorry, couldn't help it.
I had just finished a arguement with a wack job who tried to tell me President Clinton ordered the shootings of innocent people at Ruby Ridge in 1992.
I told him that Governer Clinton couldn't give orders to the FBI in Idaho in 1992, because he wasn't President yet.
It didn't get any better.
So, I came on line, and there's President Clinton taking office in 1992...
