Anyone else see that video on Sky News last night with Clinton going through his life in the Whate House like he was an ordinary Joe?What the hell was that about, and does anyone know where it could be downloaded? I plan to bribe him with it in later life . ------------------ Remember December '59 The howling wind and the driving rain, Remember the gallant men who drowned On the lifeboat, Mona was her name.

You mean Blackmail?It's a spoof video of Clinton doing very stupid things, like riding a bike in the White House, washing his wife's limousine, doing laundry, etc. etc. From what I heard, this was for a media banquet, and it totally brought the house down. ------------------ "My Name is Elmer Fudd, Millionaire.

Yeah, CNN aired it over here. Very funny. Bill running out with Hillary's lunch was just classic.------------------ The above post was mulled-over, composed, and posted during time Tom would have better spent on his plethora of homework and homework-related exercises. Now don't you feel special?

Erm... A lame duck is usually someone who is in the final months of their term, after their opponent has already been elected to succeed them. If it merely meant he couldn't be re-elected, Clinton would have been one since he was re-elected in '96. And, if Gore wins come November, I don't think Clinton would be a lame duck, since the same party would stay in office. Though I could be wrong.------------------ Harold: "You're missing the point!"

I thought a lame duck president was a president who gets caught doing something illegal/wrong, and eventually has no confidence from the Congress... Andrew Jackson, after his impeachment, became a 'lame duck' president.------------------ "No children have ever meddled with the Republican Party and have lived to tell about it." Sideshow Bob

Lame duck: Any outgoing official with diminished power due to the fact that he/she is soon to leave office. Usually, but not always, following an election which the outgoing official has lost.That's all. ------------------ "Nobody knows this, but I'm scared all the time... of what I might do, if I ever let go." -- Michael Garibaldi

Er, Andrew Jackson was never impeached. Andrew Johnson, who became president after the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, was impeached in 1868. *** The 22nd amendment reads in part: "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice...." Clinton is thereby barred by from seeking another term of office as president by and is therefore a lame duck. Accurate, yet not frightening. ------------------ Yes, that's to correct your posture.

Keeping in mind that impeached doesn't mean he gets kicked out, only that congree agrees to put him/her on trial. (something like that)------------------ Fool of a Took, throw yourself in next time!! Gandalf
