Students were assigned to read 2 books, "Titanic" & "My Life" by Bill Clinton. One smart-ass student turned in the following book report, with the proposition that they were nearly identical stories! His cool professor gave him an A+ for this report.
Titanic:..... $29.99
Clinton:..... $29.99
Titanic:..... Over 3 hours to read
Clinton:..... Over 3 hours to read
Titanic:..... The story of Jack and Rose, their forbidden love, and ensuing catastrophe
Clinton:..... The story of Bill and Monica, their forbidden love, and ensuing catastrophe.
Titanic:..... Jack is a starving artist.
Clinton:..... Bill is a bullshit artist.
Titanic:..... In one scene, Jack enjoys a good cigar.
Clinton:..... Ditto for Bill.
Titanic:..... During the ordeal, Rose's dress gets ruined.
Clinton :..... Ditto for Monica.
Titanic:..... Jack teaches Rose to spit.
Clinton:..... Let's not go there.
Titanic:..... Rose gets to keep her jewelry.
Clinton:..... Monica's forced to return her gifts.
Titanic:..... Rose remembers Jack for the rest of her life.
Clinton: ..... Clinton doesn't remember Jack.
Titanic:.... Rose goes down on a vessel full of seamen.
Clinton:..... Monica...ooh, let's not go there, either.
Titanic:..... Jack surrenders to an icy death.
Clinton:..... Bill goes home to Hillary - basically the same thing.
Awe Poor Bill, such an intelligent guy and only remembered for the fling with Monica. And yet How many presidents had their little affairs. Didn't Jefferson have an affair with a slave, and conceive a child? Isn't there some saying about trying to bring great people down?
Not wanting to be thought of as a humourless drudge, but I didn't find that funny at all. I would have given that smart ass student an F.
I agree with Tina here about the Monica crap. He isn't the first head of state to have had indiscretions, and he won't be the last. But yeah, it was creative, just a sad commentary.
well I bet that had the paparazzi been so prevalent in Jefferson's day people would have been talking about it all over the place....and I would almost bet that 10 years from now another president or leader will have done some scandalous thing to take over where Clinton sits in the publics eye.
Maybe it was the media that allowed that thing to get so insane, but that Kenneth Star, in my opinion, was the worst of it, dragging what should have been a private matter out into the public like that. I'm not clear on the details, so please don't rake me over trhe coals if I'm not accurate, but I found that investigation to be disgusting and pointless. A leader like the US president should be allowed to keep the public out of the bedroom (or wherever they were). It reminded me of the Salem witch hunts.
I recall other countries at the time thinking we were all nuts for being so concerned with his private life. It was all so absurd. And now we have Bush who's lied about weapons of mass destruction, and barely a concern. Frustrating!
Well with Clinton they wanted to, or did, impeach him saying he lied about the BJ. But Bush has lied and no one says anything, seriously, about impeaching him. Although you can go to impeachbush.org....
I dont really think that Bush lied. I think he went off of what HE was told by the good for nothing advisor's that he has at the White House.
and I have to say that I was in Kuwait up until the day the war started and I cant tell you how many times I heard and felt the ground move because some Marine Snipers and EOD team snuck on over there and blew something up before good old Saddam could....and I cant tell you how many times a day the jets at the air force base were sent off to divert Saddams jets because they were in the no fly zone...UGH those alarms were LOUD
