“The info about the number of fundraisers is interesting.  It is also interesting in terms of misuse of power since he rode in Air Force one for all of them.  He should not be allowed to pass that off because the SS (Secret Service) insisted.  The SEALS took out Osama not Obama.  So why is Obama taking credit for Osama?   As a former CIA person said on the news yesterday, it is startling to note that the Obama administration thinks that waterboarding live prisonerss is inferior to killing them outright.  I guess the reasoning is that intentional murder is preferred to intentional torture! I write a lot about this on my WordPress blog, Progressivepolitics.com”

I wrote the foregoing in answer to Dick Morris’ video concerning the deal between President Obama and former President Clinton.  I wholeheartedly agree that the deal is dirty, but for a difference reason.  I believe that former President Clinton has never been able to adjust to life away from the center of power.  That is why he stays around Washington and is actively engaged in politics.  He liked the position of power and the perks that went with the Presidency.  He thought he owned the White House when he lived there and has never gotten over the fact that President Bush had it for eight and now President Obama four years.  I believe he yearns for those days when he was the main man at the big house.  I also think he realizes how foolish he was to squander those days by an affair with Monica L.  As for Hilary, she settled for Secretary of State for the same reasons.  She missed the White House, and the tremendous array of personal services offered to the First lady by obsequious political functionaries.  A Senator?  In that position she never approached the luxury and power afforded her as wife of the President.  Sad to see her guzzling down a beer at the bar in South America!  So, we have the persons who formerly were fielders of power cutting a deal with the currently powerful in order thereby to win an election that presents them with continued power and access to personal services that would make a king blush.  Maybe it is better to have a five-year Presidency with no opportunity for re-election.  Ford went home, as did Carter.  Bush 41 and Bush 43 also relinquished the reins of government with ‘Elan.  But it looks from here like the Clinton’s and the Obama’s want to hold on so bad that they will put up with each other to achieve it.  Elect Romney and let the new broom sweep the house clean.
