Today, June 1st, President Bill Clinton turned, like a slavvering rabid dog, on his entertainment industry rich fat-cat donor buddies in the Rose Garden of the White House. The likes of Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg and Kurt Russell must be wishing they had stopped payment on those one hundred thousand dollar campaign contribution checks they so obligingly surrendered last month at the Graystone mansion Clinton panhandling session. I can only assume that these unwitting donors felt that they would be cut a little slack, in their possible joint culpability for the recent ration of teenage, violent video game and movie inspired, killings and injuries in Colorado and Georgia. As they were smoking and joking with Clinton, they probably thought they were going to be immune to the relentless attacks of the Clinton/DNC/Whitehouse spinmeister machine. Oops, I guess they were wrong!
Bill Clinton stepped up to the microphone and finally did something that usually eludes him; he told the truth. He began, " There is a link between sustained exposure to violent entertainment and violent behavior ". This obviously means those ' rip the heart out of your opponent's chest ', bloody video games like Doom and Mortal Combat ( which coincidentally has a bloodbath series of movies inspired by the senseless graphic violence and killing machine characters from the game ) and exploding head and lower abdomen, intestines drooling out, movies like ' Escape from Los Angeles ' and maybe even ' Saving Private Ryan ' ( yes, even a supposed World War II movie can go way overboard on the senseless graphic violence )!
Clinton declared that this repeated senseless graphic violence contributed to the environment of teenage killings that we are experiencing today, saying that at the very least, it " desensitizes them ". He vowed to fund a study by his administration into this connection between the increased violence in the entertainment industry and the increased violence among our nation's youngsters.
Clinton also attacked the advertisements for these games as something more than gratuitous, saying that the " advertisements have a role here ". He had a fistfull of the advertisements with him and began to read them to the assembled audience. Two of the more memorable of these ads were, " Kill your friends guilt free ", and " More fun than killing your neighbor's cat ". Oh man, is that harsh or what? Clinton wound down with, " I know this stuff sells, but that doesn't make it right ".
Could it be that Hillary was behind this presidential waffling flip-flop? After all, even the usually staunch Democrat lover, Jonathan Alter, said, " She is wearing the pants in that family ".
Well, the ultra-rich greedy entertainment types should have known that Clinton would turn on them, as soon as it would benefit him personally. Remember, there is a trail of broken promises, destroyed lives and blatant bald-faced lies, following the campaigner-in-chief around. I feel contempt, rather than even a trace of pity, for these decadent Hollywood hedonists. They finally got their just deserts!
