#1 You mean Clinton didn't stay bought after the Chicoms financed his previous campaigns?

#3 Okay, what are the odds the W trusts him enough to have added a little "private" diplomacy to Clinton's agenda, hmmmm?

Me, I'm thinking that the answer is about the same as winning the lottery + getting picked off the street to play in the NFL (I'm 55 with a bad back) combined, or mathematically infinity to one.

#4 I'll disagree there, Alan. I suspect there's a lot of mutual respect between the two, even if they disagree on about every policy. They're both politicians and know how to use other people to get what they want. They've got a lot more in common with eachother, than say with Jimmah Cahtah.

Bill is still trying to prop up his place in history and he see's that W is on a roll. So he's going to try to grab a seat on that bandwagon.

#6 also ties in nicely with the "remaking of the Hildabeast as a moderate"

#7 Mrs D,

I'll grant mutual respect as politicians, but trust to carry out delicate diplomatic stuff w/o shafting Bush for fun or personal profit?

I can't see it.

#8 I despise everything Bubba stands for, but he has been a much better former president than peanut.

Me thinks he's finally getting it. Or getting older.

#9 ChiComs phreaked? Clinton broke into their telephone system and made a bunch of free calls?

#12 Blue boxes are for people who can't whistle, eh, LKK?
