Observations concerning Billy Jeff Blyth and his "heartfelt comments" that have been scrubbed so as not to stain the deliberations of the Beatification Committee
(2) In a discussion over the politics of the parents of Matthew Shepard, a gay man beaten and left for dead, Clinton said that “white people in Wyoming … are by definition Republicans.” And expressing his doubts about whether to bring up Shepard’s murder in the address, Clinton revealed to aides that his pollster warned his “numbers go down” every time he mentioned gays in a speech.

1. Concerning the first point. Billy Jeff Blyth is quintessential white trash. His task, as a member of the whitetrash-American community is to denigrate and ridicule his betters. He does it very well, through considerable practice, by associating people he resents and feels inferior towards with acts and statements he thinks will lessen public and community esteem for said people. Tom DeLay, of course, had nothing to do with the dragging death of that poor unfortunate who met up with some drunken whitetrash late one afternoon.
OROGs should be aware, however, that the area of Newton and Jasper Counties in Texas, adjacent in Deep East Texas to Louisiana, are truly Old Confederacy in their ambience and understanding of life. And, interestingly, with the end of the coming term, Newton and Jasper Counties will have been represented for six consecutive years in the Lower House of the Congress of the Republic of Texas.....by a Black man....very highly educated....a movement, fundamental conservative, and a Republican. This last election cycle, he will have had no opposition from a Democrat and he had none in the Republican primary this round.
Perhaps he took solace and inspiration from Billy Jeff, when Little Billy told the beaming Yankee throngs about how he would get on the city busses in Hope, Arkansas and purposefully go sit in the back so as to express solidarity with the humiliated Black Folks who were required to sit in the back of the bus by law. Of course, that did not ever happen....for one because he would not have done it if he could, and for another...Hope did not have city busses. Children rode their bicycles the 15 blocks over there and then the 9 blocks to over here and the adults either drove or walked to their destinations. Billy Jeff lied and the Black Folks walked or drove to their destinations.
Billy also remembered all the Black churches that were set afire around where he lived (actual count? Zero), and that is what drove him to always cast his first sympathies with the Black Folks.....like when he put his post-Presidential office in Harlem.

Harlem Is Losing a Piece of Clinton
By MANNY FERNANDEZ
When Bill Clinton officially began his post-presidency in Harlem in 2001, he was greeted with open arms — thousands of them. At a plaza near his new office, at 55 West 125th Street, a crowd of 2,000 residents and civic leaders gathered on a hot July afternoon to celebrate the arrival of a neighbor whose presence, two blocks from the landmark Apollo Theatre, seemed to put a presidential stamp of approval on the neighborhood’s revival.

York Times
In his speech there in 2001, Mr. Clinton said, “Harlem always struck me as a place that was human and alive, where there was a rhythm to life and a song in the heart, where no matter how bad it was, people held up their heads and went on, and where, when things got good, people were grateful and cared about their neighbors.”
Nearly 10 years later, Mr. Clinton is leaving Harlem. Or, at least part of him is.
The William J. Clinton Foundation is moving most of its offices from Harlem to 77 Water Street in the financial district, in Lower Manhattan. But Mr. Clinton will keep a toehold in Harlem: his office as a former president will remain on the top floor of 55 West 125th Street.
The nonprofit foundation will occupy space on the 18th floor of 77 Water Street. The move will give the foundation more space — 25,227 square feet downtown versus 18,000 square feet uptown — and will help it cut costs. The foundation’s rent will be cheaper than the $40 a square foot it pays in the Harlem building, though it is unclear what the exact new rent will be, since the deal is not yet official, said a person familiar with both office locations who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak about the details.
The foundation did not respond to requests for comment. CB Richard Ellis, the real estate brokerage firm representing the foundation, declined to comment.
A spokeswoman for the General Services Administration, which oversees office space for former presidents, said that although the foundation was moving, the office space afforded Mr. Clinton as a former president would remain in the building in Harlem. The lease for that space — 8,715 square feet at the top of the 14-story building — was renewed in May 2010 and takes effect in August 2011, the spokeswoman, Emily Barocas, said. The 10-year lease expires in July 2021.
Ms. Barocas said the General Services Administration had no role in the foundation’s use of the Water Street space. The New York Post reported the move on Wednesday.
It remained unclear how Mr. Clinton would divide his time between the two offices. On 125th Street near his office, Harlem residents interviewed on Wednesday said Mr. Clinton had been a positive force in the neighborhood, although not a regularly visible one. Abuk Auk, 35, who works at a hair salon near 55 West 125th Street, said she saw Mr. Clinton walking into the building once years ago.
“We were so happy,” Ms. Auk said of Mr. Clinton’s arrival in Harlem in 2001. “We thought it was going to change everything for us.” She pointed across 125th Street at a row of shuttered storefronts and added: “You see those shops that are closed? It’s too bad he couldn’t do more to help small business here.”
Assemblyman Keith L. T. Wright, a Democrat whose district includes the Harlem building, described Mr. Clinton as a great neighbor, adding that there were no sore feelings.
“We love him dearly,” Mr. Wright said. “The community will always love him. We would catch a glimpse of him from time to time, and that added a special flavor to the neighborhood. We wish him well.”
Harlem had not been the former president’s first choice. In February 2001, Mr. Clinton abandoned his plans to move into a skyscraper in Midtown after he was criticized for his decision to rent office space at one of Manhattan’s most lavish office towers. He had planned to rent the 56th floor of Carnegie Hall Tower for $738,700 a year, compared with the $210,000 asking rent in 2001 for the space in Harlem.
2. Matthew Shepard was a homosexual. He was brutally murdered by a couple of thugs....mortally injured and left to die, apparently tangled in a barbed wire fence. The press flooded every corner of the the newspapers, radio news, and television time and image with the innuendo that all Westerners, just like Southerners are beasts who rampantly dedicate themselves to the torture and murder of homosexuals and Negroes. It just their nature, being sub-human illiterate snake handlers and superstitious rubes.
Right?
Then the times, they be a - goin' by....one day turns into the next....and the story turns out not to be true. The two thugs are thugs, truly enough. But they are homosexuals who patronise the same homosexual bar where Matthew frequented. The three were drinking and partying buddies with other homosexuals. A couple of members of their posse even had girlfriends. One night after too much alcohol and weed, Matthew wound up being the object of the disaffection of the two people who had killed him. It was a matter something entirely different than that which was reported. But, at this point, what possible difference could it make?
Liberals, socialists, marxists, communists, national socialists, kill truly democratic-republican, common and natural law paradises, one lie at a time. But do not fret. They have all the billions and billions of lies they need, and the gullible, dependency-seeking slugs in the populace now....that they will ever need. The American Republic stumbles ever closer to the abyss.
