That hoodoo that you do so well.

Bill Clinton's affair with Voodoo
(This must have been before he switched to fat white chicks.)

"You remind me of a man."

"What man?"

"The man with the power."

"What power?"

"The power of hoodoo."

"Hoodoo?"

"You do."

"Do what?"

"Remind me of a man."

"What man?"

"The man with the power."

"What power?"

"The power of hoodoo."

"Hoodoo?"

"You do."
(Myrna Loy and Cary Grant in The Bachelor and The Bobby Soxer - 1947)

When it comes to dabbling in the black arts, former U.S. President Bill Clinton has much in common with deposed Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
Saddam reportedly wore a stone around his neck to ward off evil. When he was ensconced in his Iraqi palaces, he summoned up the jinn (genies) to do his bidding.

According to historian Joel A. Ruth, a Voodoo sorcerer, supplied to Clinton by the exiled-by-coup John-Bertrand Aristide, once put a curse on incumbent President George W. Bush, "by manipulating a doll made in the president’s image."

Neither Saddam’s magic stone, a special talisman meant to keep the Grim Reaper at bay, nor the Voodoo sorcerer’s curse against George W. worked. Saddam languishes in prison awaiting trial. Clinton, relegated to the public speaker’s tour, was last week paid a $300,000 fee to address a business audience in Bogotá, Colombia.

The long road of destruction Aristide carved through poverty-stricken Haiti was paved in part by one William Jefferson Clinton.

Clinton’s friendship with Aristide, a former Catholic priest turned Voodoo practitioner dates back to 1991 when Aristide, ousted in a coup, took up residence in Washington, D.C. Joining the cocktail circuit and networking for the political aid needed to help restore his power, he soon found his way within the inner circle of the soon-to-be Democratic presidential hopeful Bill Clinton.

As time would tell, Clinton paid more than a politician’s lip service to the practice of Voodoo.

According to the Haiti Observateur, "During a March 31, 1995 visit to Haiti under Aristide’s restored rule, Clinton took part in a Voodoo initiative ceremony intended to keep him impervious to Republican attacks and to guarantee his re-election." (FrontPageMag.com, Feb. 20,. 2004).
No Voodoo ceremony could ward off Monica Lewinsky and the rest, as they say, is history.

Freudian Cigars: The Next Generation. (Ok...um...it's like this, girls and boys. Sometimes Sigmund Freud's cigar was smoked by his wife's younger sister.)

And what, pray tell, are the wages of sin?

The children of Port-au-Prince continue to die of hunger. Marauding armed guards still loyal to Aristide battle police and there are signs of UN corruption.

A recent spate of violence in which at least 20 people were killed, is forcing U.S. officials to consider deploying American troops to help maintain order ahead of a general election slated for the last quarter of 2005.

While Aristide is living a life of a king’s ransom in exile, most Haitians are subsisting on less than a dollar a day.

Meanwhile, it will take more than black magic to clean the slate of Bill Clinton in a country whose mantra is "Haiti is cursed". (Thanks to Canada Free Press.)
