Clinton on Letterman = talking about energy & jobs - brillant - wish our

[2Design]

government critters were listening and could hear this - great, great ideas

[LoveMyCali]

1. He makes it seem so simple

doesn't he? Why can't some of these problems be solved?

[onehandle]

2. And he made it happen back then. nt

15. He certainly does, one of the reasons Letterman loves having him.

I remember when he was on shortly after the chaos and confusion of 9/11, when he explained the issues so simply and clearly that Letterman was practically speechless. The audience went nuts with applause. And Letterman said that he felt that Bill Clinton was still our president, which got the audience started again. Clinton still has it... and we're fortunate to still have him, and Jimmy Carter, who was both smart and funny on The Daily Show tonight. :D :patriot: :hi:

3. Clinton needs to go away and STFU

He's got a lot of nerve opening his mouth when many of the problems we're dealing with today could have been prevented by a stroke of his veto pen.

4. +1

5. yes it would have been better if he could have done stuff instead of fighting claims of infidelity

from before he even took office - the GOP wasted his time and energy

[ibegurpard]

6. He DID do stuff...stuff that was BAD

like allowing NAFTA, and telecomm dereg, and DADT, and welfare "reform."

7. did you watch letterman? or just want to be a detractor on this thread?

he was brilliant on Dave's show - sorry you missed it

8. This is a democratic discussion board, right?

I should know better than post something positive about a democrat especially late at night

[ibegurpard]

11. perhaps you were just a child during Clinton's administration?

Do you have a different opinion about the policies he enacted?
You think NAFTA has been good for American workers? You think that deregulation of telecommunications, putting most of the media in the hands of a few corporations has been a good thing for the American public?
You think that DADT is a good thing? Can you explain how great welfare reform has been?
Hey, it's all OK because it was a Democrat right?
:barf:

[DURHAM D]

12. He doesn't own DADT - Senators Nunn and Boren with

Colin Powell own it.

I ask you - are you gay and were you paying attention in 1993.



I know the answer so don't bother.

You sound like someone who never got the girl.

13. 22 million jobs created. nt

[TomCADem]

9. Excellent, Just Like President Obama - Energy and Jobs!

I am glad that they are staying on message.

[greyl]

10. He did a tremendous job. nt

14. What I like most is hearing people speak brillantly? Thinking people? people

who can use the English language to communicate and invoke thoughtful comments. I know he was not a perfect president but dang that idiot before and after him just did not and still can not speak. And Reagan started the union busting crap. Do I like all of what he did - no - still don't - same as current office holder but those other idiots couldn't even have a conversation, they couldn't think, they couldn't discuss anything - they are like faux news - not the sharpest tools in the shed -

So if you like to hear a intelligent person and are in another time zone, watch this tonight - it was good!!!!!!
