President Bush Observes Protocol...Clinton Rushes to Every Interview...

Former President Clinton, once again, proved what a media whore he is...and at the funeral of the Holy Father at that...he is a disgrace...

President Bush, determined not to upstage the funeral of Pope John Paul II, kept an unusually low profile in Rome yesterday, although former President Bill Clinton gave a television interview watched by millions.

"He recognizes the significance of the moment," White House spokesman Scott McClellan said of Mr. Bush. "And the focus rightly should be on the Holy Father."

Mr. Bush became the first president in years to conduct a full day's schedule on foreign soil without allowing a single press question, photograph or even fleeting image on videotape. His father, the first President Bush, also refrained from interviews....

Not to mention Clinton's other comment that was heard around the world...

"But President Clinton gave an interview to Brian Williams," said Mr. McClellan, referring to the "NBC Nightly News" anchorman.

It was the second day in a row that Mr. Clinton made headlines as he accompanied the Bushes on a three-day visit to Rome for the pope's funeral.

On Wednesday, Mr. Clinton angered some conservatives by remarking aboard Air Force One that the pope "may have a mixed legacy."

The unmitigated gall of this low-grade trailer-trash former president...

Maybe he thinks that just because he had Monica on her knees....

Oh forget it...he has proven, over and over again, that he is nothing more than an attention-seeking-sycophant who thinks "It's all about ME"...
