Clinton caught W with a strong left jab. "We had earmarked funds

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

for strengthening the levee system in NO, but gee, I don't know what happened to them after we left." (paraphrased).

While a lot of folks don't agree with the sentiment, I feel he done good. Real good.



On edit, thanks to Jbond56, you can see it here if you missed it before.

1. good for him

at least it's a good hard jab.

[Pepperbelly]

2. He told truth ...

although some would have prefered that he shout, jump up and down, say "fuck you!" to Poppy and roll around on the floor having a tantrum. I think he did damned well.

He told the truth about his record. He did not point fingers although he did suggest that there will be plenty to point fin gers at later.

I agree with you.

8. He was a Statesman....

Wow. I remember those.

[tk2kewl]

3. he did, i liked that

He also, essentially pushed poppy off the podium and took over after poppy made his stupid insensitive comments.

he said "i got your back" to poppy... and i think he meant "let me take over here before you make a bigger ass out of yourself"

[zippy890]

4. I heard that!!

HE sounded competant. (unlike all other govt officials on tv these days)

He also took a swipe at congress, that they should push the Estate Tax cuts back and deal with giving aid the hurricane victims.

[Land Shark]

5. allows media to do its job of finding out what happened

[donco6]

7. He's been gracious, but unyielding in allowing his admin

to be besmirched by W. It's just that the MSM hasn't juxtaposed the admins very often - have you noticed? Those questions just weren't allowed to be asked until now. And Clinton is just telling the truth about the situation. Good for him.

[zippy890]

9. He also got down into the crowd afterwards to talk to people

while Senior bush was hustled off the stage

[JohnnyBoots]

10. He is a consummate politician...no

wonder the chicks dig him.

[Patsy Stone]

17. That would be me...

He's dreamy... :)

[JohnnyBoots]

20. Very charismatic dude...would like to have a beer with him and hear a

stories. Would be a good time. Hell, put him and Teddy in the same room and there is a party right there!

[Patsy Stone]

22. No kiddin'!

As a lady, however, I think that duo might be a boys' night out. :)

[JohnnyBoots]

23. What a night it would be.....n/t

[SalmonChantedEvening]

11. Nice shootin' Bubba!!

I wish I would've seen the look on Poppy's face

:evilgrin:

[HysteryDiagnosis]

12. Where was this broadcast and will it be rebroadcast????

[SammyWinstonJack]

16. I'm sorry I deliberately turned it off now.

I hope I get to see a rebroadcast.

[cynatnite]

13. Where can a transcript or video of Bill Clinton's remarks be found? n/t

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

27. leftandrightfight.com has it up

http://www.leftandrightfight.com/

[thecrow]

14. I think he went so far as to say that his efforts on the levees

that were started in "late in my second term" were basically stopped without specifically mentioning that they were stopped by the Smirk.
It was a thinly veiled threat to Smirk that he thinks there should be a "Katrina Commission" and that it would be investigated fully in the coming weeks.

I loved the way he said this all so subtley as Poppy stood there grinning.

[MH1]

19. Subtlety can be nice. (n/t)

[jbond56]

15. video

grab it while you can (only a small amount of bandwidth left)


http://jbond56.sitesled.com/presclintonbush4.mpg


Did Bush compare the bad response to losing a football game?

[HysteryDiagnosis]

18. Thank you thank you thank you.... this needs to be aired over and

over and over so the people of this nation can see what they did to the best leader they have had in awhile over a personal matter.

I think I just may have to go out and buy The Hunting of the President now....

[SammyWinstonJack]

28. Dazed and confused. What good is Poppy anyway? He looks like an idiot

next to Clinton. Clinton by himself could raise the funds needed. Poppy should go home to his evil wife and let Clinton handle this.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

25. Thanks. I went ahead and published it here:

http://www.leftandrightfight.com/

Streaming.

[jbond56]

31. if band width is not an issue

I have different version with better quality.

pm me for more details

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

33. Thanks, check your in box!

[Patsy Stone]

29. Thanks for the link

Yes, he did. :puke:

[MH1]

32. Thanks! n/t

[Rose Siding]

21. He said something similar on the phone with King Sat night

Then last night, poppy appeared solo. They were on that show together when they teamed for the tsunami.

[Arkansas Democrat]

35. I'm so proud of Bill Clinton!!

Wish we had his leadership today instead of old Stupid running the country!

[Kansas Wyatt]

24. He's leading everyone to the marker to be looked at later...

But his first priority is to help the people of NO.

He is making it very clear that he will not be blamed for this, and it is very easy for the country to figure out who should be blamed - George W. Bush & the Republican controlled Government.

[Patsy Stone]

30. And I felt so calm

as he explained the steps to take and the priorities to set for today and for the future.

Once we had a President who could think and feel and take the proper actions, and now we have a paper doll...

[bullwinkle428]

26. That statement alone, redeemed him in my eyes,

with regards to making the appearance with Poppy in the first place.

[tjdee]

34. He said that on Larry King too. HINT HINT MEDIA!

He's an extraordinarily talented politician, and I hope the media gets it.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

39. I missed that.... It's just that I can't abide Larry King. I think that

if he had the first interview with a true extraterestrial being, I'd have to wait and read about it.

[buzzard]

36. That was the one sentence that stood out when I watched it. eom

[kentuck]

37. Yep.... and he also said there was time to find out those facts but....

right now, there were people that still needed to be rescued and that should be our first priority.

[susanna]

38. I said the same thing to my husband...

He put it out there. Now let's see if the MSM follows up (I'm not holding my breath).

I think WJC is a consummate politician. He knows what to say, when to say it, and when to let others pick up and run with it. IMHO, it was never the DLC platform that won him his Presidency. It was simply his skill as a campaigner and, later on, as a leader.
