If Bill Clinton was my Boss I would?

Another thread got me thinking about this so I thought I would start a new thread to ask the question. I'm not a fan but got enamored with thinking about what others might say when put in this perspective.

To prove that I am not trying to start a Clinton bashing session, I will not respond to any replies to this thread. So how about it.

If Monday morning you went to work and Bill Clinton was your immediate boss how would you handle it? The presumption is that you are talented and looking to advance in the organization.

Handle it? I would demand ask for a raise, more money means earlier FIRE...

It would be GREAT! Heck, since he could sleep through Martin Luther King III's sermon last Sunday, he'd probably sleep through me surfing the internet and goofing off all day! I'd love it!

I completely miss the point of this thread.

Is it me or is it just a pointless attempt to stir up the "liberals"?

Explain to him - I was born a Democrat in SW Washington in contrast to those evil eastern cats who lived in Yakima.

Plus - having spent thirty yrs in New Orleans I still have some extra names from graveyards in St. Bernard Parish if he needed a few extra votes.

Where I grew up liberals voted Socialist, us Dem.'s were the conservatives - and they penciled in a Reb. number just for laughs - until the 60's.

And further - to really stir things up!

Pssst - Wellesley!

I would handle it by bring Miss Lewinsky to work with me and if she was not available I would bring a young pretty woman. I would also play the song "I'd Love to Lay You Down" by the GREAT Conway Twitty



I would have the name, the address and the phone number of a good dry cleaner for in case there were any accidents with any blue dresses.

Arc, how would you handle it if in February 2009 you had to go to work for Old George W and Mr. Dickey C?

GOD BLESS
