Michael Barone's comment that the Clinton's are trash is much too mild.
In fact, one of this nation's greatest Presidents would have called the Clinton's exactly what they are and that is the LOWEST OF THE LOW.
President Truman made the statement when asked why he never joined corporate boards or gave speeches for money after leaving the White House: An elected official that uses his / her service to the country to enrich himself / herself is both UNETHICAL and IMMORAL.
Had Bill Clinton NOT occupied the Oval Office would any person have paid to read his books or to hear him give speeches? Would anyone have paid to read a book by this former President's wife?
Anyone with any honesty whatsoever knows the answer is NO.
Bill and Hillary Clinton are akin to what one sees in the bottom of the toilet bowl after having a bowel movement.

So, Mr. Barone, why did you lose your place among the regulars on the McLaughlin Group? My sources tell me that John McLaughlin didn't want you on the program after you called the Clintons "trash". It was one thing when you jumped on the bandwagon with the accusers who falsely claimed that the White House was looted following Al Gore's loss in 2000, but personally slandering the President and First Lady was outrageous and (apparently) unforgivable. After all these years one would think John would invite you back on his program; however, I never miss it, and I've never once seen you there since you made those very uncharitable and un-Christian statements. Perhaps it's because you were never willing to apologize to Hillary or Bill Clinton.
