The Inn at Casa Blanca
Date: Fri, 20 Dec 1996
From: christopher pasek
Organization: cigarz
Subject: What's next for President Bill

My predictions

	1. Spitting in the face of every investigative charge, Bill Clinton
finishes the second term and becomes the next spokesperson for the
'Motel-6' chain. Tom Bodette is furious and commits suicide. Sort of. 

	2. It will be revealed that George Steffy-nop-a-less was ordered by
the prez. to give back rubs to well-heeled guests that slept in 
Lincoln Room. Little guy is depressed and attempts suicide...
fails...sort of...and joins big t.v. news show.

	3. Finally: Convinced that every thing the Clintons are doing is 
on the up and up, the public agrees to lease out White House on full-time
basis. Indonesian, Taiwanese, Chinese and Japanese investors squabble
and argue over availability of rooms with Indonesians taking nativist
attitude with cries of "We were here first!". All future presidents and
vice presidents (in an effort to help balance the budget) will now reside
in the local 'Motel-6'. And Bill will be there...to leave a light on.

			  Merry x-mas!


From: dan mitchell Date: Wed, 18 Dec 1996 Subject: What's next for President Bill WASHINGTON: "The White House confirmed today that indeed it had been giving major contributors special edition 'Tickle Me, Elmo' TM dolls, but denied allegations it had pressured PBS to make the dolls available for DNC use. A senior (3-month tenure) White House aide said he felt Sesame Street had always promoted the concept of friendship and the 'Friends of Bill' were deserving of the scarce toy. "In an unrelated story, President Clinton announced he will issue an executive order to restore full funding to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting."

From: Leann Arndt Date: Mon, 30 Dec 1996 Subject: Submission? Hi, I'm a thirty-three year old married mommie of three. Some think that the following little ditty is amusing. What WILL Disney Come Up With Next? What new Disney characters will pop up in 1997? Well, the ultimate corporate conspiracy will be revealed. President Clinton, at a press conference, will have a alleged heart attack. The attending physician will reveal that the alleged attack is actually the result of mechanical failure. Yes, it's true! President Clinton will be revealed to be an animatronic figure copywritten by the Disney Corporation. Also, Disney will subsequently be saluted when a press release reveals that Hillary Clinton is yet another animatronic figure containing the consciousness of Walt Disney inscribed on a computer chip. LA Hello Leann, Isn't that what they said about Ronald Reagan?
Date: Mon, 30 Dec 1996 From: Gary Kern Subject: Vince & Paula Dear Daily Muse: Just discovered your site at year's end. It's refreshing to see the residents of Casa Blanca treated with the proper disrespect. The general press may note their scandals, but always with a tone of acceptance: it's just business as usual. Anyone who gets upset is just a right-wing fanatic. Reading through the issue, I fail to find anything about Vince Foster and Paula Jones. Have you used them all up in previous issues? Or--horribile dictu!--have you forgotten about them? The Vince Foster affair was swept under the rug at first, then blown up into a massive murder plot by late-arriving independent investigators. I believe it still needs a rigorous inquiry. There are 3 questions I want answered: 1. How did Vince Foster know about Marcy Park, the place where his body was found? It is a remote spot, quite out of the way for Washington residents. I am a native of Washington and never knew about the place until Vince showed up there. I understand that he lived quite far away from the area and did not drive by it. A rigorous inquiry would have to establish that this newly arrived Arkansas man visited the park in the past. It was, reportedly, the place he chose to spend his last minutes in. 2. Who called in the first report? I recall reading that it was a boy on a bike who claimed to have seen the body from the road. The body, however, was found in a place not visible from the road. 3. The motive. The official version, evidently supported by his widow, is that Foster was upset by the battering the President was taking in the press, he thought the political climate in Washington was vicious and he couldn't handle it. Nowhere have I seen the observation that this motive is self-contradictory and impossible. If Foster sympathized with the President for the criticism he was receiving, he surely would have believed that the suicide of a White House aide would bring the President nothing but grief. Whatever his emotional state, he could not have killed himself with the idea that things would be better for the White House or that the press would lighten up. On the contrary, the act looks more like a hateful one, heaping greater woes on the White House. In that case, of course, the motive has to be different. Perhaps you can raise some of these issues in your satiric and thought-provoking manner. You might also note the recent admissions of former White House Director of Administration, David Watkins. (Washington Times, 12/16/96) He says Vince was sleeping with Hillary and Bill was sleeping with Marsha Scott, White House Director of Presidential Correspondence. The latter two bedded down on the night of Vince's departure. I don't care who sleeps with whom if it has nothing to do with politics, but here the question of motive reappears. A suicide of a White House aide is unprecedented in my memory; it is a phenomenal event, not just a sad incident. Paula Jones has taken a beating in the press, probably for her looks. Even the feminists have dumped her. Yet she passed a polygraph test, and she claims to have an intimate knowledge of Uncle Bill's nether parts. Could it be monogrammed silk panties? In any event, the President has claimed immunity as Commander in Chief on standing military duty. He shot off some rockets to Iraq, just to prove the point--and also to knock out Bob Dole's campaign as a war hero. They only cost $1 million apiece. Did you notice how the USA recently removed its support from the northern Kurds, for whom Bill shot off his rockets? Paula Jones deserves at least a hearing. Anyway, thanks. My server always cuts off my connection whenever I try to send a long e-mail, so this is it. Remember Vince & Paula. With all of this, I believe we haven't seen anything yet. To use a Southern expression, Willie's slick as snot. GK Hello Gary, You are obviously someone with too much, er...a lot of time on his hands. As per your question, Vince Foster can be found (ever so briefly) at: http://www.cais.net/aschnedr/backpage.htm#anonymous >How did Vince Foster know about Marcy Park, the place where his body was found? Well, he was a lawyer. And lawyers know how to read. He had access to U.S. government documents, including Park Service maps. Maybe that's how... >Who called in the first report? That's important, but what about this: The 2 links in a Yahoo search for Vince Foster are dead ends. I smell conspiracy. Maybe we shouldn't talk about this any more. Paula Jones is at the bottom of Bubba Muse: http://www.cais.net/aschnedr/clinton4.htm

O.J. head tilt From: Weebles64 Date: Thu, 19 Dec 1996 Subject: Why don't WE leave O.J. alone? Funny I didn't see a lot of black people saying leave those cops alone when they were tried a second time. You see white people don't like racist jury verdicts either. Oh I know you can point back 30 years and find some. Well since then whites have been for the most part teaching their children that racism is wrong. But what have many blacks been teaching their children? That racism in reverse is acceptable. That getting even is their right. But guess what, they're getting even with the wrong people. There is a new generation, one that didn't do the racist things that the old one did. They don't want to be blamed for what they didn't do. Would you? Getting even with this new generation will only poison the well for all, and encourage more getting even on their part. Can you see the backlash (O.J. Simpson, Prop 209 etc.)? Racism must be wrong for all sides, not just one. Otherwise it will resurge and all sides will want their due. Will we end up like Bosnia? It's up to everyone to decide. Sticking up for reverse racism will only take us one step closer. But if that is what you want then that is what you'll get.
From: Weebles64 Date: Sat, 21 Dec 1996 Subject: Thanks for posting my e-mail Thanks for posting my e-mail. Just a minor corrective note when I said--"Funny I didn't see a lot of black people saying leave those cops alone when they were tried a second time." I was of course referring to the cops who were tried twice for beating Rodney King (I'm sure you figured that out). I just wanted to clarify my point. Thanks again.

From: A numbered account in Canada Date: Mon, 02 Dec 1996 Organization: Georgian College Subject: O.J. I LIVE IN CANADA AND WE FOLLOWED THE O.J. SIMPSON CASE. I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF BLACK PEOPLE AROUND ME BUT THE REACTION OF BLACK PEOPLE REJOICING TO THE MURDERER OF A WHITE WOMEN BEING ACQUITTED PLANTED A SEED OF HATE INSIDE ME FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE. THE WHOLE RACE SHOULD BE ASHAMED.
Date: Fri, 06 Dec 1996 From: John Hill Subject: O.J. Update Having round filed all my unpaid bills and awakened with my usual morning mouth and guilt, I decided to assuage myself by driving over the hill to Santa Monica to see if I could find some solace in Judge Fujisaki's courtroom. Wonder of wonders I beat the odds and found myself seated in the last row of the spectator's gallery, much to the chagrin of the bailiff who viewed my unkempt hair and beard with obvious distaste. Note pad in hand I held my breath in anticipation as Al Cowlings took the stand. Called by the plaintiffs to refute Orenthal's recent denials of ever striking his estranged and demised wife, Al seemed a bit discomfited, as though he had swallowed something distasteful. Trying his best, it seemed, to be non-committal, he answered the questions in a soft voice, hedging his responses with "perhaps," "maybe's," and an occasional wince. In all honesty I felt a bit sorry for the sorry dude, placed in the position of having to testify against his lifelong friend and mentor, on whose coattails he had ridden for so long. The pain he felt was palpable, it seemed to ooze from his pores together with the glistening beads of sweat which dotted his forehead during particularly relevant moments. Did Nicole tell him that Simpson had struck her? "Well, perhaps she did." was his response and then when pressed on the point admitted that she had. It seemed at times that any damaging issue had to be pulled from him like a dentist extracting a molar, yet this very reluctance lent an air of credibility to his statements which did not seem to be lost on the jury. An observer with any degree of common sense had to come to the realization that THE JUICE had been lying through his teeth during his entire time on the stand. I suspected that Al had come to the point of earnestly wishing he had never met O.J. or Nicole, and would have welcomed the opportunity of fading into the relative obscurity of just another football hero. I suspected also, that much as in the case of several other O.J. supporters, the contact had proved personally disastrous. While I felt a certain degree of pity for Cowlings my neighbor on the left was not so generous. "Why can't the sunovabitch just lay it out and tell it like it is," he mumbled, "instead of dodging the questions? What the hell happened to truth?" I had, in fact, wondered about that very thing during the months of the whole sordid affair, but TRUTH it seems is in the eye of the beholder and in O.J.'s case neither TRUTH nor JUSTICE appeared to be color blind. Ah well, I thought to myself, such are the vagaries of life, politics, and polemics, could we expect anything less in a world in which values are based on celebrity, superficiality and titillation. Looking at Al Cowlings' face I felt assured he was feeling the same way. No doubt he was still coming to grips with the fact that he was being judged solely on his misplaced affection and loyalty. Yet, in his own way, I felt that Al was attempting to redeem himself, now fully cognizant of the enormity of his loyalty and the cost it entailed. Reluctant though he was to speak, I had the distinct feeling he had arrived at the only conclusion a rational person could. It was time to abandon the sinking ship. I am sure he was torn. Indeed, it had to be obvious to even the most blatant of partisans that even if, by chance, O.J. was not a sociopathic killer, he was a monumental and psychopathic liar! And therein lies the rub, for once he acknowledges that latter fact the former in all likelihood holds true. His testimony concluded, Cowlings quickly left and I followed, curious to see what reaction his statements had on the media and camp followers outside the courtroom. I was gratified to see that he had no words for the press, only disdainful and penetrating looks which spoke volumes. His stature in my eyes jumped several points. Perhaps for the first time I could appreciate just what agonies one man's megalomania could do to not only his friends and those who loved him, but to a nation. JGH Hello John, What will you do when it all ends? Oh, I forgot. It will never end, will it, this trial of The Next Century.
From: Louise C. Mel Date: Fri, 06 Dec 1996 Subject: Hello Muse Dear Editor: I am a mother of an 11-year-old boy. Through various news programs and daily newspapers I’m reminded of the ill-fated turns life can take. Since the time my son could listen I’ve talked to him about the horrors of alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, wanton sex, and lack of education. Making choices is what life’s all about, I tell him. So make wise ones. Lately, however, I realize the choices he makes may not be up to him. First there was McNamara’s book explaining the actual ruse behind the Vietnam Conflict. Later came the revelation that the CIA possibly channeled CRACK cocaine into South Central Los Angeles. Now there’s the case of the Pentagon’s missing records surrounding chemical warfare during the Gulf War. How can the Pentagon, which is so good at keeping secrets and protecting our National Security actually expect the public to believe it lost the records? Do they really think we are that stupid or do they know there’s not a whole lot we, the people, can do about it? The more I read the more fearful I become for my son. Just yesterday out of the blue he asked me, "Why is someone called a hero when they kill during war, and a murderer when they kill during the heat of passion?" At 11 he’s trying to discern the meaning of hypocrisy. Will I encourage him to make the right choice when and if the time comes for him to be drafted and go to war? If I keep reading the newspapers, you bet. Louise C. Mel A soccer mom
