Speaking at the dedication ceremony, Clinton pointed out how some have lauded the William J. Clinton Presidential Center for its modern design, while others have complained that the $165-million US facility resembles a trailer home.

Going to have to put my self in the trailer park category. Can't see what the surrounding structures look like but I gather it juts out over the river. So I guess it also looks like it's on blocks.... I don't think this is helping out with stereotypes of the South Bill....

I wonder if the blue dress is in there....or in an FBI Crime lab.....

I drove by it a few months ago. The theme is something like "A bridge to the future," which is why it's not all the way over the water. It's a pretty neat idea. I think it'll look really good when it's done.

You can't judge it by that one picture. It looks absolutely beautiful at night.

It doesn't look phallic at all. No more so than a brick, a stereo speaker, or most buildings for that matter.

Nor does it look like a cigar, unless they make them silver and square now.

The man himself looks pretty good. Noticibly thinner. Hopefully, that's a good sign given his surgery and is indicative of a lifestyle change and not weakness from the surgery itself.

BTW...Bill O'Reilly thinks Bush should have nominated Clinton for Secretary of State...said so today.,

You're right, it's not phallic at all.... nope not at all.

And I guess it has to be brown, smoking at one end and made in Cuba to look like a cigar, right?

If that looks phallic to you, then it's time you took yourself down to the clinic. :P

It may be slightly phallic if you stretched your imagination, but not enough to be funny. IMO of course.

When does the Chretien Museum open in Canada?

Bwahahahaha . . . . .

Seriously though, I understand from one story I read that Monica Lewinsky gets only one small print mention in the Clinton museum.

Bill Clinton's congressional library, thrusting proudly over the river is a testement to the mans greatness (or lack of) during his time as the President of the United States, covered in a tight class coating with an innovated resevoir tip to protect the building from environmental hazzards this building stands proudly at attention as a salute to Mr Clinton, a man who had two terms in the Oval office. Access to the bridge unit is through a zipper elevator that goes up and down slowly several times a day depending on need and urgency.

When asked of her opinion Monica Lewinsky a former white house intern slowly chewed on her fingernail in a seductive manner and exclaimed, "Good God its so big"

The inside of the library contains a small MacDonald's a tribute to Clinton's many conquests errr professional affiliations. When asked what he thought of the massive structure proudly and strongly hanging over the wet lush river valley land, Ngu Chou 55 years old laughed and said "Holy crap its a giant . . . "

The secret service promptly shot him
