Bomber-In-Chief

New York Daily News - Home - Lloyd Grove's Lowdown: At Bill library, Bush sounds sub-versive: "President Bush once daydreamed about blasting Bill Clinton's presidential library to smithereens, according to a new book.

In 'How Bush Rules: Chronicles of a Radical Regime,' former Clinton aide Sidney Blumenthal recounts a November 2004 visit by Bush and his political guru Karl Rove to the William J. Clinton Library in Little Rock, Ark., on the banks of the Arkansas River.

'Bush appeared distracted and glanced repeatedly at his watch,' Blumenthal writes about a presidential tour during the library's dedication. 'When he stopped to gaze at the river, where Secret Service agents were stationed in boats, the guide said: 'Usually, you might see some bass fishermen out there.' Bush replied: 'A submarine could take this place out. . .''"
