...overqualified for the nation's highest office. He has not only made better movies than Ronald Reagan, but his legendary years of womanizing make Clinton look like a Mormon missionary and J.F.K. like a rural parish priest. A Beatty campaign, it seems fair to speculate, would have no jarring bimbo eruptions, only a flowing fountain of sexy memories...
During their meteoric ascents, both Bills came to be regarded as unstoppable forces of nature. Clinton turned setbacks--being voted out as Governor at 34, "bimbo eruptions" that threatened to derail his campaigns--into triumphs. Gates crushed his competition, to the point that his dominance of the software field began to seem godlike. (Cyberjoke: How many Microsoft employees does it take to change a lightbulb? A: None. Bill Gates just redefines Darkness as the new industry standard.) In the end both landed at the top of the world. Clinton was elected and re-elected President; Gates' software controls more than...
...tuned in to the Howard Stern show two weeks ago. Don't ask, please.

As President Clinton meets Monday with his national security team to discuss Iraq's suspension of U.N. arms inspections, Saddam clearly believes that, absent the mother of all "bimbo eruptions," the U.S. is unlikely to muster the political will and the international support necessary for military action. Which leaves Saddam, improbably, holding most of the aces...
...House Judiciary Committee are already vying to put the best possible spin -- pro- or anti-Clinton -- on the tangled mass of testimony, tapes and transcripts. Here's what the GOP would like you to note: Dick Morris muttering darkly of a presidential "secret police" that keeps the lid on bimbo eruptions; Monica Lewinsky telling Linda Tripp "I wouldn't cross these people for fear of my life"; Betty Currie's growing forgetfulness on the witness stand. For the Democrats, Tripp's tapes show an impressionable Lewinsky being willfully manipulated -- if not entrapped -- by her older, wired friend, and Currie...
