Has the American public grown numb over the right's Clinton bashing?
Has the constant rantings from the right over Bill Clinton become just more background noise for the American people as a whole?

Has the GOP gone to the "bash clinton, score points" well once to often?

Are they now just overfeeding an extremely small minority?

2. No! The right is just feebly trying to blame 9/11 on Clinton b/c
fencesitters are questioning about the info that was passed along to bush by clinton. I know dems who still think whitewater was actually a crime the clintons got away with, it's ridiculous! Also, right-wingers won't tire of bashing clinton it's a favorite pastime.

3. I think...
it's because we point to all the screw-up's that Chimpy has done...so instead of defending their man, because they really can't, they go after Clinton's record...

It really pisses me off too! The Bush gang has done much worse, yet Clinton still gets blamed for everything that goes on. The rethugs will still be blaming him even after Bush and Clinton are both long gone!

5. So let's get this straight
Clinton doesn't kill Osama..and they're getting in HIS case about it. Bush fails to capture either Osama or Sadamm; and that's OK.

They blame Osama bin Laden’s rise to power on Clinton; but the fact that the last Bush administration helped create and supported isn't worth mention?

They accuse Clinton of not allowing the CIA to hire Arabic translators (yeah right..why not?); but how about all the Arab translators that were fired by the Bush administration

How bout they stop trying to pin every thing on Clinton and point the critical eye on the nitwit in office. The last Gulf War (and American military presence in Saudi Arabia) is what drove Osama to hate the west; and Dim Son's little pointless war is created even more hate for the west.

But of course when a Republican screws up baldly (and everything that's happen since 1/2001 has been on Bush's watch) it doesn't count.

Hopefully Clinton will speak up for himself and take a stand against this kind of crap. Shit like this from the right can't be left unchallenged.

8. Clinton
Read Al Franken's book and write letters to the editor. Educate yourself about their lies. Email CNN, the networks etc. (Don't bother with Fox). Don't pas up a chance to nail Rapethepublicans. I urge everyone to get involved. If we keep pounding these bastards the message will get through. Don't think the Networks know everything. Send them a story, they may not have heard it yet. Anytime you don't have something to do, send a email. :mad:

6. Franken's book
discusses this issue in detail. Clinton's record on terrorism was great, even to the point of laying out a plan to deal with Al Qaeda. The Bushites totally ignored the information they were given. Franken calls this "Operation Ignore."

7. Ya notice how the rightys NEVER talk about who trained bin ladin
Ol Binnie was a reagan/bush chum back in the 80's when the CIA was traning him..Oh Suddam was too.. But those are facts that somehow always seem to slip a right wingers mind when it comes to screeching about Clinton..
Have the right wing gotten around to explian why Bin Ladins family were given speical air clearance on the day of 9/11 yet?..dont think so
