Did I just hear my favorite president Bill Clinton on CNN
defending Bush's speech last night for lying about a 9/11-Iraq connection?

Hopefully I'm wrong, but if it's true, he needs to start watching his words so he doesn't potentially hurt Hillary's future politial assperations.

2. Oh wow
This isn't hurting her aspirations, it's paving the road to make her more appealing to the masses.
I'm quickly losing respect for a man that I held in high regard.
But something tells me he doesn't really care how we feel.

8. I agree to a certain respect, but I still think
there are too many people (especially those who are not as informed as we are) feel, well...if he thinks so, she must.

These are the same people who believe men should earn more money than women doing the same job!

5. Let’s forget about Clinton like he's forgot about us. He’s a whore.
He has proven time and time again he lacks any character.

6. They slipped a computer chip or two with complete programs into
the Big Dog when he was in for surgery. Then they found they needed to tweek the program a bit and that was why the second surgery was necessary.....

7. And you're surprised?
Have you no idea the Clintons and the lot of them following Evan Bayh are pure DLC?

Split it up already so these corporate freaks go the other way.....I'm disgusted by these nuts this time. :puke: :puke:

Do they care a shit about citizens.....Or is it more exploitation....

10. I see them together and I wonder
Is Clinton hanging around with Bush to help the Clinton family's interests or is Bush hanging around with Clinton to help the Bush family's interests?

Or is it both?

12. Remember what Mike Malloy says:
"Bill Clinton was the best Republican president this country ever had." -Mike Malloy

He's right, you know.

15. It would be in America's best interest if we would ignore both
of the Clintons. They obviously have personal agenda that have nothing to do with what is good for the U.S.

19. How was Clinton "defending"
bush's speech?

Howard Dean wasn't..

"Dean: Troops Deserve More Than Bush's 'Discredited' Rhetoric


Disappointingly, the President followed Karl Rove's advice last night and linked Iraq to 9/11 no fewer than five times in just over 35 minutes. He ignored the concerns that Americans have expressed about the war, and still refused to provide real answers or a clear path to success in Iraq. Even former Reagan aide David Gergen expressed that he was "offended" by the number of times President Bush mentioned 9/11.

"Despite being previously forced to back away from unfounded assertions about links between 9-11 and the war in Iraq, President Bush once again twisted a national tragedy to distract from his own failed foreign policy," said DNC Chairman Howard Dean. "Instead of offering the American people a clear path to success in Iraq, President Bush returned to the same defensive and discredited rhetoric. The American people, and most especially our troops, who are serving with great courage, deserve better than discredited, shopworn political rhetoric from their Commander-in-Chief."

22. You know what's funny?
When it comes to statements like this, right-wingers quote Bill Clinton as the gospel truth.

I couldn't care less what Clinton says- he lost me with NAFTA and media deregulation.
