Bankrolled almost entirely by taxpayers, Bush is roaming far & wide on Air Force One to help Republicans retain control of Congress and capture statehouse contests in high-stakes midterm elections.
All this to-and-fro presidential politicking is only expected to increase as November draws closer. And it is the taxpayers, not the campaigns or political parties, who foot most of the travel bill.

Shouldn't Bush be paying his own way, or at least the
REPUBLICANS paying for this yet another waste of
taxpayers money....

No it is not right for the people to pay for it. What he does is make up a speech to give when he get there and gives that about the administration. then the candidate will have dinner or feed and he will give a speech. He spends 1 hour at this and the government is paid $56,000 by the candidate. Tthis goes back to the government for the hour he spent there. But the total cost is more like a quarter of a million dollars or more for him to get there and give the speech that no one pays any attention too.

The London Times recently wrote that President Bill Clinton "may forever be known as Bonking Bill, the president who could not keep his trousers on." There is certainly plenty of evidence to prove the Times right. Even before elected, candidate Clinton was dodging a barrage of accusations, ranging from sexual mischief, fathering an illegitimate child of a prostitute and sexual harassment.

One former Clinton insider described Clinton as " very lustful and bold, especially when he was around women he perceived might be receptive to his overtures." Arkansas State troopers, who were required to manage much of Clinton's schedule while governor, claim he often sent them to ask women to meet him.

The troopers say there are many women with whom "Bonking Bill" had affairs during that time. They report such antics as his sneaking out while his wife Hillary was asleep or inviting women in for "personal tours of the governor 's mansion" when she was working at the Rose law firm. Some of the women have talked openly about their affairs with Clinton but most of their spicy confessions have been ignored by the press.

Bobbie Ann Williams, a streetwalker in Little Rock claims Clinton used to pick her up while he was out jogging and pay her for sex behind hedges or in the back seat of his official limousine.

A Little Rock lawyer, Polly Kyle, wrote a fictionalized account based on an actual affair she claims to have had with Clinton, which has yet to find a publisher. She says she and Clinton had been lovers since they were at school in Hot Springs.

Susan McDougal, still in jail for refusing to testify to a grand jury investigating the Whitewater scandal, is said to have been "Bonking Bill's" lover. Even in jail, she remains devoted to Clinton and unwilling to talk about it. Susan's husband, Jim, said recently that he knew she had an affair with Clinton. "How should I say this? They were intimate, there was no doubt in my mind." Susan said it was not so. "I'm a small-town girl, a Southern Baptist. I wouldn't do it." The McDougals were partners in the doomed Whitewater property deal with the Clintons.

Clinton lawyers and spin doctors until recently have managed to deflect, dilute and trivialize the steamy accusations, giving Clinton enough benefit of the doubt from the public that they reelected him. But the recent Paula Jones Supreme Court decision has got his lawyers and spin doctors worried. The Supreme Court had voted unanimously to reject Clinton's plea that a president is immune from private lawsuits while in office and therefore Jones should not be allowed to sue the president.

Jones alleges that a state trooper invited her to meet the then Governor Clinton at the Excelsior hotel in Little Rock where she was manning a conference registration table. She went to the room thinking Clinton would offer her a job, she said. Instead, she claims "Bonking Bill" fondled her, dropped his trousers and asked her for oral sex.

Ever since Paula Jones first made her allegations in 1994, Clinton loyalists have campaigned to smear and discredit her. Hatchet man James Carville, Clinton crusader in chief, once sneered: "Drag $100 through a trailer park and there's no telling what you'll find."

In other words, according to Carville, Jones should not be believed because she is from the working class and even if something did happen in that Arkansas hotel room on May 8, 1991, well, she was that kind of girl and got the treatment she deserved.

Jones says she can prove Clinton dropped his drawers in front of her because of the "distinguishing characteristics" of "Bonking Bill's" genitalia. Some speculate Jones is referring to a bald eagle tattooed in his crotch area. Others claim "Bonking Bill" is branded with a mole "the size of a quarter" on his upper thigh. Jones' suit demands $700,000 in damages and an apology from Clinton, who until recently had claimed no recollection of meeting Jones, but did not dispute that they had met.

Because the statute of limitations for state court had expired by the time Jones' name was being flashed as one of Clinton's women, Jones filed a sexual harassment suit against Clinton in federal court to "defend her honor." Jones alleges that because Clinton was acting in an official capacity when he sexually harassed her, he had deprived her of her civil rights.

Witnesses that Jones plans to call include Gennifer Flowers, who had a 12-year affair with Clinton and has not been bashful about telling all about it, selling taped phone conversations and revealing intimate secrets of their sex sessions, such as their pet names for each other's private parts. "We made love everywhere, on the floor, in the kitchen, on the cabinet, the sink I called his testicles 'the boys' and he called my breasts 'the girls'."

"Bonking Bill's" lawyers are facing a catch-22 dilemma, if they try to keep the case out of court until after the president leaves office, it will put an enormous strain on his life as a private citizen. If Jones' attorneys are allowed to force Clinton to take the stand while he is still president and testify about his alleged sexual mischief and the characteristics of his "genitalia," all credibility he has as president of the United States will almost certainly be destroyed. Because Clinton is commander of chief of the military, he is already catching some flak being accused of a double standard because of the numerous high profile sexual harassment cases involving the officers and enlisted in the military.

Rather than face the prospect of so many women coming forward to talk in open court about sex with the president, "Bonking Bill" may be forced to beat a hasty retreat and settle out of court with Paula Jones.

Witnesses said they saw Neil Moody sitting in his car arguing with another person just prior to His car suddenly speeding off out of control and hitting a brick wall.

Mary C. Mahoney: 25, murdered at the Georgetown Starbuck's coffee bar over the 4th of July '97 weekend. She was a former White House intern who worked with John Huang. Apparently she knew Monica Lewinsky and her sexual encounters with Bill Clinton. Although not verified, it has been said that Lewinsky told Linda Tripp that she did not want to end up like Mahoney.

Ronald Miller: Suddenly took ill on October 3rd,1997 and steadily worsened until his death 9 days later. (This pattern fits Ricin poisoning.) Owing to the strangeness of the illness, doctors at the Integris Baptist Medical Center referred the matter to the Oklahoma State Medical Examiner's Office. The Oklahoma State Medical Examiner's Office promptly ran tests on samples of Ron Miller's blood, but has refused to release the results or even to confirm that the tests were ever completed.
Had been investigated by authorities over the sale of his company, Gage Corp. to Dynamic Energy Resources, Inc. was the man who tape recorded Gene and Nora Lum and turned those tapes (and other records) over to congressional oversight investigators. The Lums were sentenced to prison for campaign finance violations, using "straw donors" to conceal the size of their contributions to various candidates. Indeed, Dynamic Energy Resources, Inc. had hired Ron Brown's son Michael solely for the purpose of funneling $60,000 through him to the Commerce Secretary, according to Nolanda Hill's testimony.
Sandy Hume: On Sunday, February 22nd, 1998, Sandy Hume, the 28 year old son of journalist Britt Hume, was reportedly found dead in his Arlington, Virginia home. Aside from the statement that this was an "apparent" suicide, there remains in place a total media blackout on this story, possibly out of concern that the actual facts will not withstand public scrutiny. Worked for Hill magazine, about Congress for Congress.
Jim McDougal: Bill and Hillary Clinton friend, banker, and political ally, sent to prison for eighteen felony convictions. A key whitewater witness, dies of a heart attack on March, 8 1998. As of this writing allegations that he was given an injection of the diuretic lasix has not been denied or confirmed.
Died on March 8, 1998

Johnny Lawhon: 29, died March 29, 1998- The Arkansas transmission specialist who discovered a pile of Whitewater documents in the trunk of an abandoned car on his property and turned them over to Starr, was killed in a car wreck two weeks after the McDougal death.. Details of the "accident" have been sketchy -- even from the local Little Rock newspaper.

Charles Wilbourne Miller: 63, was found dead of a gunshot wound to the head on November 17, 1998 in a shallow pit about 300 yards from his ranch house near Little Rock. Police found a .410 gauge shotgun near Miller's body and a Ruger .357-caliber revolver submerged in water. Investigators concluded the Ruger was the weapon used by Miller to kill himself. Yet, two rounds in the handgun's cylinder had been spent.

He had long served as executive vice president and member of the board of directors for a company called Alltel and was deeply involved in his own software engineering company until the day he died. Alltel is the successor to Jackson Stephens' Systematics, the company that provided the software for the White House's "Big Brother" data base system and that was behind the administration's plan to develop the secret computer "Clipper" chip to bug every phone, fax and email transmission in America.
Carlos Ghigliotti: 42, was found dead in his home just outside of Washington D.C. on April 28, 2000. There was no sign of a break-in or struggle at the firm of Infrared Technology where the badly decomposed body of Ghigliotti was found. Ghigliotti had not been seen for several weeks.
Ghigliotti, a thermal imaging analyst hired by the House Government Reform Committee to review tape of the siege, said he determined the FBI fired shots on April 19, 1993. The FBI has explained the light bursts on infrared footage as reflections of sun rays on shards of glass or other debris that littered the scene.
"I conclude this based on the groundview videotapes taken from several different angles simultaneously and based on the overhead thermal tape," Ghigliotti told The Washington Post last October. "The gunfire from the ground is there, without a doubt."
Ghigliotti said the tapes also confirm the Davidians fired repeatedly at FBI agents during the assault, which ended when flames raced through the compound. About 80 Branch Davidians perished that day, some from the fire, others from gunshot wounds.
Mark Corallo, a spokesman for the congressional committee chaired by Rep. Dan Burton, R-Ind., said that police found the business card of a committee investigator in Ghigliotti's office. Corallo said Ghigliotti's work for the committee ended some time ago.
Tony Moser: 41, was killed as he crossed a street in Pine Bluff, Ark on on June 10, 2000. Killed 10 days after being named a columnist for the Democrat-Gazette newspaper and two days after penning a stinging indictment of political corruption in Little Rock.
Police have concluded that no charges will be filed against the unnamed driver of a 1995 Chevrolet pickup, which hit Moser as he was walking alone in the middle of unlit Rhinehart Road about 10:10 p.m
Police say they have ruled out foul play and will file no charges against the driver because he was not intoxicated and there was no sign of excessive speed.
