********************************************************************************

Mr. Clinton:

Farewell. You haven't left yet? Eight years in office and you will never

be gone. You said it yourself in that peculiar farewell stunt you pulled

at Andrews Air Force Base on Inauguration Day. How did you phrase

it? "Hey, I left the White House, but I'm still here!" followed by that

trademark gulping laugh you emit when you're particularly self-satisfied.

And that's your legacy, isn't it? Laugh at us all, supporters and critics

alike, while you bask in the selfish light of narcissism and self-absorption.

Those frequent photographs that capture you with your eyes twinkling

and your mouth agape indicate just how much in awe you are of

yourself. You're that tenacious, reddish-brown water stain on the ceiling

that no amount of paint can eradicate. Congratulations - you have

achieved a status that no other president has ever acquired ... or sought.

Mr. Clinton, you are the most self-centered, disgraceful person ever to

hold the office of president. Your legal entanglements speak volumes about

your character. You and your wife can whine about the vast conspiracy that

supposedly fabricated charges against you, but everyone knows better.

Your huge monetary settlement in the Paula Jones case, the contempt of

court fine you paid and the recent payment in connection with your admitted

perjury vaporize that clumsy little myth the two of you tried to foist on the

public. I found it especially revealing that in the end, when you were

frightened into admitting that you are a liar (so as to avoid criminal

prosecution), you bravely sent your attorney to face the cameras and give

it one last spin.

You're not even a brave criminal. You're the unrepentant and cowardly

lion, more transparent than the Wizard behind the curtain.

A bit harsh, you think? Well, pardon me. Pardon everyone. How did you

overlook Charles Manson? Every Democrat and Republican with trace amounts

of decency agrees that some of your last-minute, sophomorically theatrical

pardons were outrageous. Granting indefensible favors to outlaws who

pleasured you is a curious way to assure that your name will appear in

history books. Besides, it was so unnecessary. That impeachment thing

secured your place in history. Remember?

For a big guy with a great swagger, your departure from the White House

exposed just what an insecure waif you truly are. Evidently, you were

uncertain as to whether you had sufficiently disgraced your office while

there, so you and your childish fraternity brothers vandalized the place.

While the pornographic messages on answering machines and computers

were beautifully Clintonian, and the garbage left in the halls was emblematic

of your character, I was more impressed with the drawers you guys glued shut.

It made me laugh, sort of a gulping sound. When I heard about the cut

phone and computer lines, the damaged keyboards and the stealing of

White House property, it made me beam with the pride of a proud American

whose president worked tirelessly to diminish himself as much as he did the

position he held. I would be remiss in my praise if I did not indirectly congratulate

you by admiring your wife for her craven acquisition of free furnishings for your

two new houses. That was a real touch of class. Sweet work, Hillary; you really

are a junior senator.

Just two more things, Billy, and I'll let you get back to planning your next

obnoxiously despicable act. I have written to every president since Richard

Nixon, and you are the only one without the courtesy or courage to write

back. Apparently I did not supplicate your highness in an appropriate

fashion. Sorry. For years I have taught my students about the presidents.

Ronald Reagan was the oldest to serve, FDR held office the longest and

James Madison was our shortest chief executive.

You, Mr. Clinton, were our smallest president.
