In the last year I read over nine books on the subject of the Clintons in Politics. My aim was to attempt to understand how these two well-educated, ambitious, capable people could combine their talents and energy to build an empire of such power that can be compared only to Alexander the Great.

Even before they were married each had made a name for themselves. Hillary as an attorney going after Nixon in the Watergate scandal, and Bill as a Rhodes scholar, who dodged the draft and then demonstrated against the American Embassy in Moscow. These two met at Yale, moved to Arkansas, married in 1975 and started building a political base of Democratic support that would literally take over the most corrupt aspects of the party in Arkansas.

The combination of Bill and Hillary working together for the benefit of power support has turned into an awesome blend of successful ambition that is based only on power. Think of the influence these two have amassed in the 25 years they have been a team. Scary!!! How did they do it? I tend to envision a bacterial fusion that becomes a virus that could infect every man woman and child in the USA. This is my own active imagination at work and you may discount it as coming from an envious politically active loser. They did it by following their well-planned dreams of controlling Arkansas, America and then the world. They then sold this dream to the most influential and wealthy liberals they could find. They never allowed set backs to slow them down and they worked 20 hours each day building their dream. Their protesting against the "establishment" in the sixties and their shared desire for power seemed to be the glue that kept them together and attracted the dissenters and rebels that have followed them into the Whitehouse.

From the inauguration, the re-election, the Whitewater, FBI files, the investigations that indicted and jailed so many of the Clinton's friends and backers, up to the impeachment has been a time-line of acts against the American people and the country itself. This has astonished most of us! How have they gotten away with it? How were they able to undercut the authority of the Secret Service, the FBI, and the entire Justice Department? How has Clinton been allowed to cut through the Constitution with his Executive Orders? How many more orders are we going to put up with before most of the Amendments are removed? Folks, this is serious schidt!

I'll tell you how he has done it! The single authority over these terrible deeds lies in the Congress/Senate. These weak-kneed, spineless men and women, Republicans and Democrats, should have stood up and stopped the destructive acts of these executive decisions from the beginning.

They knew about Clinton's (both) ties to the liberal/leftist organizations that would have been called Communistic in the 50s. They all knew that Clinton had demonstrated against the American Embassy. They also knew about his impulsive sexual problems. The minute the 900 plus FBI files were added to the Whitehouse database should have been the signal for action! Hillary's ethical problems with the pyramid scheme while working for the Rose Law Firm was common knowledge. Our representatives did nothing!

The Clintons have left a trail of horrendous acts against not only their enemies but also their friends. I'm sure it will all come out after they are out of office. In my opinion, all the Representatives should be ousted from office. The only way they could get back into their cushy jobs would be for a contract to be signed by every damn one of them promising to uphold the laws of the Constitution. They all took an oath when they took office and they have all put this behind them for their own personal gains.

I used to wish for a strong GOP that could work together as the Clinton's had attracted the Democrats into their successful team. I don't wish for this any more. The GOP is a dead party. They are in the hands of special interests groups and therefore totally unable to work together as a team. Instead of demanding a drug test when being elected in to the congress, I would prefer an IQ test just on Constitutional Law. The GOP does not represent me! It used to, when it spoke of cutting the size of the Federal Government's power so that we could understand it, afford it, and not feel overpowered by it. Today, we just hate it; we have no respect for any part of its makeup. I had a cousin who was an FBI agent and we were so proud of him. When the Secret Service was called into their brave jobs of protecting our elected officials, we looked at them with awe. All of Washington DC is a fraud. Louis Freeh knew all along that the FBI files were being copied in the Whitehouse. Janet Reno has known for years what kind of leadership this country had in the 90s. Didn't they sign an oath to uphold the laws of the Constitution?

Folks, our power lies in the Congress. In the last two weeks, Vote.com has flooded the congressional email system to the point that none of us has any input left. Do you suppose Dick Morris knew this would happen? Do we trust him? I'm going back to the FAX machine with my letters. Maybe we need candidates from the 3rd parties to run for congress and show them how to team up and speak up!
