The Counter Clinton Library
I heard about this on a right wing radio puke show and checked it out. Seems like the neocons opened a counter Clinton Library a few blocks from the actual Clinton Library in Arkansas and have a virtual counter Clinton Library website at http://www.counterclintonlibrary.com/

They just can't stop trying to destroy Clinton. I hope the good folks in Little Rock let them know what they think of this never-ending attack on President Clinton and Hillary.

Of course we can also start virtual Counter Reagan Library and Counter Bush Library websites and give them a taste of the truth about those admnistrations.

2. I'd heard that it wasn't going to open
Must have. Hmmm. Well, knowing Little Rock, I doubt if anyone who is operating the site is an Arkansan. I give it maybe six months.

What IS this obsession with the Clintons, anyway? I've never been able to figure out why right wingers hate them so.

4. Arkansans
I live in Arkansas and I know that the only reason why people are bashing Clinton is because of the whole Monica thing. We have a few religious freaks here that they think it is bad b/c he got oral sex in the oval office. And not that I am saying that the religious people are freaks, but there are a few that take religion way to far. But there is a lot of people who like Clinton and thought he did a wonderful job as president. I don't think our state is truly a republican state. :)

24. Arkansas is a progressive/libertarian state
in that people like to be left alone, using government to regulate things such as safety, etc, and in helping folks. There aren't enough rich people here who will benefit from Rethug tax cuts. But you are right about religious freaks. I've met them, and their minds appear to be closed to looking at things from a different perspective.

3. IF it ever get's built?, it will be the first anti-Presidential library-I
Edited on Sat Nov-20-04 10:03 PM by papau
do not expect it to ever be built.

Like the GOP's Swift Boat Liars, this is made for media smoke that our media likes when it dumps on Dems, and ignores if it dumps on the GOP.

a STORE FRONT RENTAL might make the BS a bit more real, but they have yet to accomplish that.

9. I don't see a date but...
my bp rose to dangerous levels just reading things on that site.

"The Counter Clinton Library, at a site within walking distance of the official "LIE-brary," will feature exhibits, research material and artifacts that present the public with the truth about the most corrupt administration in American history. The ultimate goal of the Counter Clinton Library is "To let not one Clinton lie go unanswered, to let not one evasion go unquestioned, and to let not one Clinton slander go unchallenged."

http://www.counterclintonlibrary.com/ccl_contents/tour/

Counter Clinton Library founder Dick Erickson envisions 16 rooms of multimedia-based exhibits in Little Rock in time for the opening of the presidential library. Hard copies of documents will be kept primarily at the Washington museum, he said.

Erickson is visiting Little Rock this week from Houston to woo secret support and secure a museum location in the Little Rock area. He said Wednesday that both efforts require secrecy to avoid subterfuge from Clinton's Arkansas friends.

But the tax-exempt status means that Erickson and co-founder John LeBoutillier, former Republican congressman from New York, will not be able to keep names of contributors or land acquisitions secret for long. Counterlibe Corp. will have to file that and other information with the IRS next year.

Erickson said his organization also needs overt financial and public relations support from prominent Republicans. Erickson already counts on kind words from conservative media personalities like Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh and help with documents from insiders including fired Clinton adviser Dick Morris.

They also plan a branch in Washington DC

That's why every time Clinton is nice to those bastards I want to barf!

20. Horsepoo. Hillary was great campaigning with/for Kerry.
You know she still had an infirmed husband and a job in the Senate during the campaign, don't you?

8. Isn't it funny that these nutcases are so concerned with what the Clintons
are doing, but they don't give a shit about any of the horrible, illegal, and morally reprehensible things Bush is doing?

10. The Daily Show had an episode on this...
The guy they had on was a complete moron (duh), whom I've seen on CNN, etc., representing Focus on the Family or the FRC or whatever. A true idiot.

12. Not too suprising, really.
The other day I recall listening to a segment of the Ed Schultz show, where he was discussing a "Bush presidential library," and callers rang in with their input for design, exhibits and items. It was pretty funny stuff. I'm pretty sure it was Ed Schultz's show, I could be wrong.

16. Anybody got an address for this library? (Didn't see one on the site.)
I'm in Little Rock every day, so it would be no problem to go give it a look.

:think:

18. I believe they aren't releasing the location
until it's completed. They're afraid friends of Clinton in Little Rock will sabotage the construction.

22. Baloney! That bunch of phonies
has been acting like they own the property in LR & DC to do this - they have neither. They do not have the money, haven't been able to raise it, etc. - just another way of their hate trying to rip people off for this ridiculous endeavor. As for real Clinton Library in LR - a long time ago - they said "bring it on."

19. The COUNTER Bush library is in the National Security Archives - see BCCI
and Iran-Contra and Iraqgate for starters. Real Congressional and judicial testimony and documents proving that Bush1 and his thugs committed SERIOUS crimes against the Constitution of the United States.

21. Clinton was too successful...
...and they hate that. They'll be trying to drag him down well after he's dead.

Mark my words. They're SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO threatened by someone who was so exceedingly more successful a Pres than any Repuke will ever be - well, what ELSE can they do?

25. As a politician, you know you've hit the big time
when they create a whole cottage industry out of hating you.

I love that! You go, Bill!

The more they hate, the more he stays on the front burner.
