'I Did Not Have Sexual Relations With That Woman ... Because She Wouldn't Let Me'

You can already hear the excuses coming from Bill Clinton in reaction to this book.
Monica Lewinsky may not always have been the intern most likely to succeed when it came to catching Bubba's wandering eye in the White House.

So says former political staffer Stacy Parker Aab, who claims she had her own close call, sexually, with the President in the new HarperCollins book "Government Girl: Young and Female in the White House," slated for a January release.

During a trip to Okinawa, Japan, for the G8 Summit in 2000, Parker Aab, who was then 26, claims Bill Clinton summoned her to his hotel room, escorted her onto the balcony and gave her a hug that she says lingered just a little too long to be paternal. As the only girl in a boys’ club, the young aide writes that she was terrified of where the hug might lead, but managed to maintain her composure as Clinton said he’d always admired her.

Bubba wasn’t the only reportedly touchy-feely guy Parker Aab encountered in the White House. She insists that Clinton pal and adviser Vernon Jordan kissed her not once but twice while he was married.

The author saw Jordan — who famously and controversially helped the disgraced Lewinsky when she left the White House — as a mentor, and was only too happy to accept his offer of a dinner date.

They dined at an expensive restaurant in the Georgetown area, and when it was time to say goodnight, Parker Aab claims Jordan gave her a kiss on the lips. He repeated the move at a later date, while also inappropriately telling her she should always wear pantyhose, she says.

In the memoir, Parker Aab says she did nothing to garner such attention by her male superiors.

Other women, though, were not so demure when it came to crushing on the commander-in-chief. Parker Aab writes that Kate Capshaw, Steven Spielberg’s wife, was not immune to Clinton’s allure.

She recounts a visit to the Spielbergs’ Hamptons home on Georgica Pond, when Capshaw decided to greet the presidential motorcade in her bathing suit.

Shocked that no one seemed to mind the fashion faux pas but herself, Parker Aab writes: “To [Hillary] Clinton, Ms. Capshaw might have just been another woman showing off her best bits to the President. Mrs. Clinton had seen this scene before."
Aab was once an assistant to The Forehead, Paul Begala. It will be interesting to see the reaction from Begala and the rest of the Clinton apologists.

Dekalb County, GA (A place you want to avoid)

Here in the Atlanta area the crooks seem to be targeting the cops. First item:
Atlanta police were still searching for suspects Christmas Day in the carjacking of an off-duty police officer.
Two men wearing all black put guns to the officer's head as she got out of her Chrysler 300 at a southwest Atlanta apartment complex in the 1300 block of Kimberly Way, said Officer James Polite, a department spokesman.
The one item missing from this story is the fact that she was in uniform at the time so they knew she was a cop.

Peoples evidence 2:
An off-duty Marietta police officer injured in a drive-by shooting was in critical condition Tuesday at Grady Hospital, said DeKalb County Police spokeswoman Mekka Parish.

The female officer's name has not been released.

The shooting happened around 9 p.m. Monday at a Christmas party in a DeKalb County home, located near Covington Highway and I-285. Police have no motives or suspects, Parish said Tuesday.
And apparentely the bus drivers aren't safe either.
A MARTA bus driver was stabbed while on his bus Monday night.

DeKalb County Police Department Supervisor Aaron Nix confirmed the stabbing, which occurred at around 10 p.m. at the intersection of Miller Road and Covington Hwy. Nix said the driver was taken to Grady Hospital but the extent of his injuries were not immediately available.

MARTA Police are investigating the incident.
The crime stories all have one common thread. They occur in Dekalb county, former home of Rep Cynthia McKinney and current home of Vernon Jordan (D), who has announced his intentions to challenge Saxby Chambliss (R-GA) for his Senate seat this year. Dekalb county is the most crime ridden portion of Atlanta. They made a big deal out of taking in a bunch of New Orleans folks who were too stupid or hardheaded to get out of the way of a hurricane.

Not saying there is a correlation but if they find the suspects somewhere in narrative will probably be the words "former resident of New Orleans". For anybody contemplating a move to the Atlanta area 2 areas to avoid are Dekalb and Clayton county.

Clayton County has had their school system lose their accreditation once already, about 2 years ago, and is in danger of losing their accreditation again over the actions of their school board.

Well, I don't guess I will have any friends from those two Chambers of Commerce.
