Lets Third Term Big Dog Clinton NOW!!!!!!

[rsmith6621]

(to bad we cant change the Constitution)

....At least we know without a doubt where he stands and that he will fight.......

[Big Blue Marble]

1. Let's not! N/T

[AtomicKitten]

2. Hide the interns!!!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

12. That Wasn't Nice

And to quote Janeane Garofalo the blow jobs put a spring in his step.

[AtomicKitten]

18. Lying about it turned out not to be too nice either, eh? nt

[DemocratSinceBirth]

25. It's Ungentlemanly To Reveal Everybody That Has Given You A Blow Job

.

[AtomicKitten]

26. LOL. Okay I'll give you snaps for that. :-)

[DemocratSinceBirth]

27. Thank You

Actually I think it was exquisitely poor judgment and a moral lapse I would not countenance but can certainly understand given the frailties of humans...

[Whisp]

47. most of our frailties and lies don't drag on for millions of dollars

of cost for almost a year.

he should of fessed up. no balls Clinton. coward. guess Hillary had them. balls balls balls.

[karynnj]

29. This was after the woman admitted it - after she spoke to a "friend" who wasn't a friend

Frankly, he wasn't being a gentleman when his version was it was not true and she kind of stalked him. (never believable, because if true and he disliked it, she would have been assigned elsewhere by the end of the day.)

[DemocratSinceBirth]

37. A Woman Revealing Who She Had Sex Wiith To Her Girlfriends

Is a bit different than a man doing the same thing... The old double standard.

Also, it was some of Clinton's supporters who raised the "stalker" defense

And I was being tongue in cheek.

It was poor judgement and a moral lapse. But we as humans have frailties...

[karynnj]

39. I agree if the only ones who knew were her friends, but Monica was

already PUBLICLY saying that she had an inappropriate relationship with Bill.

I agree with your last sentence, but I refuse to give Clinton any more credit than due on this whole sad episode.

But, I think we Democrats got what we deserved there - we knew early in the primaries that he was both a womanizer and pretty free with playing with the facts - and we elected him.

[Kennah]

22. Was she speaking from experience?

[Beacool]

31. Grow up!!!

a) The intern was 21.
b) She was doing the chasing, not the other way around.

I don't condone Bill's behavior and it angered me at the time because of how he hurt his family; but people need to stay out of other people's sex lives.

:eyes:

[AtomicKitten]

36. She was 21 and an employee and he was POTUS for crissakes!!

Of course you are condoning it and I will add your excuse-making for him on this is the antithesis of the tenets of feminism. :puke:

When this kind of behavior affects the nation as it did, you betyerass it's our business.

[AndrewP]

45. The right wing talking points continue even in the left wing chat rooms

It's sad

[AtomicKitten]

51. Being okay with a man in power diddling a young employee is against common decency & decorum.

And that's not RW or LW, that's just disgusting.

[AndrewP]

54. You are so good

Congrats!

[AtomicKitten]

55. I hope there is nobody (esp. female) in your life depending on your squishy sense of integrity.

[girl_interrupted]

64. Oh please, Lewinsky had 2 affairs with married men before Clinton

She was no innocent babe in the woods, she had affairs with 2 married men before her romp with Clinton. And her mother was no better, writing a book of the sex lives of the 3 tenors and her affair with Placido Domingo. These two, are women who go after famous men.. I wonder how the women on this board would regard Lewinsky, if it was their husband she was fooling around with. I'll bet they wouldn't be calling her "innocent" or "helpless" then. Power is an aphrodisiac, many other presidents and men in prestigious positions have affairs. Grow up.

What always makes me laugh, are the same people who so offended by Clinton, forget all about what Ted Kennedy did. And that was far worse. People can be so puritanical and hypocritical at times.

[AtomicKitten]

71. So, she was asking for it? Really?!!

How many affairs did BClinton have beforehand? That and yours are moot points.

As POTUS and most powerful man on the planet, diddling a young female employee in the White House no less is the disgusting act of a morally bankrupt man.

Your "she was asking for it" argument (just a slippery slope from "Raped? Suck it up!"), extending that pathetically shameful argument to her mother for crissakes, and throwing in Ted Kennedy as lame subterfuge do not in the slightest mitigate the debacle committed by BClinton that nearly brought the country to its knees in the late 1990s.

60. The leader of the free world was helpless against an intern!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Life Long Dem]

62. Wasn't that his advice to Obama today?

To keep it in his pants! :rofl:

[polichick]

3. He's already triangulated us into rightwing policies - Obama's turn. nt

[wndycty]

4. After a day many folks would be calling him a corporatist. . .

. . .LOL folks are so predictable.

[lob1]

17. I hope they say that, because that's exactly what he is.

NAFTA is the best example. It was under Clinton that Glass-Stiegle (sp?) was removed. DLC is Clinton's friend.

[boppers]

57. After 4 minutes, actually.

(See #17)

[katty]

5. Is Clinton back?! He's been on camera now quite awhile

and Barack is standing there listening to him.

[fascisthunter]

6. screw that.... no way

[TwilightGardener]

7. Bill Clinton stood for whatever would help him win elections.

Not that I minded that...but I wouldn't call him Mr. Principles.

[GoCubsGo]

8. No thank you. n/t

[monmouth]

9. God help us all..n/t

[soleft]

10. Are you friggin' kidding me?

I would love to see your posts from the hypothetical DU of 1994.

Welfare Reform
DOMA
DADT
Healthcare.


PULEEEEEEZE!

[FrenchieCat]

16. Don't forget that telecommunications act......

cause that really fucked up,
and we are still paying for that one,
big time!

[bigdarryl]

11. Clinton has a bad heart

[Kennah]

24. But his dick apparently works just fine

[young but wise]

33. Stop it. That's so mean, but funny.

:rofl:

[DemocratSinceBirth]

38. Is That A Bad Thing

I hope it's the last thing to go for me.

[Kennah]

58. It's Not All That Bad Of A Thing ...

... and relative to the self righteous bullshit of Tom Delay, et al. impeaching him over it, it's a tiny, little, insignificant thing. I mean the issue involving his dick, not his dick.

[AndrewP]

46. Hi Rush

[bigwillq]

66. ha ha

:rofl: :thumbsup:

[ProSense]

13. Finally!

After rehashing the story about Bill Clinton's spine and how he destroyed Republicans when they shut down the government, Clinton steps forward to show President Obama how to respond. This could work. It could!

[golddigger]

35. Wow! Steps forward to show President Obama how to respond?

Do you even stop to think how that sounds?

[CakeGrrl]

14. Hee hee - do you understand what he's DOING there? I doubt it.

[sasha031]

15. thank, but no thanks

:smoke:

[bigdarryl]

19. Big Ed's head is going to explode over this alliance

[Stoic]

20. Let's not and say we did.

No more corporate sell-outs for president.

[bushisanidiot]

21. I think President Obama is doing just fine, thanks.

But I do love the Big Dog!! :)

[MellowDem]

23. Clinton is a giant douche...

If he COULD run again, all you'd hear is "triangulation".

[jefferson_dem]

28. Weak

flamebait.

And you know it.

[Vinca]

30. The man is responsible for a whole lot of outsourced jobs and

rubber stamped the deregulation of the banksters. Don't wax too fondly over him.

[PBS Poll-435]

32. 12 Years later and people are still obsessed with the 'Clenis'.

:banghead:

[Beacool]

34. Bill's resurgence will make some heads explode.

This is going to be good.

:popcorn:

[AndrewP]

48. Yeah, lots of crying themselves to sleep tonight

[political_Dem]

40. Hell no. The interns will be grateful.

[ibegurpard]

41. why? we already have another corporate water carrier in there

[democrat2thecore]

42. Clinton showed his leadership abilities at the podium - like him or not -nt

[Union Scribe]

49. Unfortunately, leadership doesn't happen at the podium.

Speeches happen there, that's all.

[democrat2thecore]

52. I disagree....many a president LED from the "bully pulpit"...

And leadership begins with fighting from that pulpit. It's not all there is to leadership...but fighting and drawing lines in the sand from that podium sends a message. This president seems incapable of doing anything but compromising from the WH podium.

on edit.....This started before the TV age.....FDR led this country through the depression and WWII from a MICROPHONE.

[Union Scribe]

53. Touche

and agreed. I was trying to make the point that the speeches from this administration aren't the stuff of leadership, and should have been more specific because you're right, in the right hands the podium is a powerful tool.

[democrat2thecore]

59. And I understand what you are saying too - btw - Here is a little FDR

44. And then ironically complain about DADT and financial deregulation!

:rofl: :rofl:

The schizophrenia here is hilarious.

[NorthCarolina]

50. There's no "F" in "WAY". nt

[Warren Stupidity]

56. actually I have a pretty good idea that he stands right next to Obama

same shit different decade.
Nafta anyone?

[Lilyeye]

61. LOL! I laugh at anyone who trashes Obama yet backs Clinton..

Because a lot of the crap they trash Obama for (being republican lite, not being liberal enough etc)....Clinton was pretty much the same. We're still suffering from some of Clinton's polices, yet some still want him back in office and want Obama out. Even after he comes out in defense of Obama's policy lol. Those people aren't fooling anyone.

[rsmith6621]

63. At Least With Clinton My Wife and I.....

.....were able to buy two new cars and a home on a lot less than I make by myself now...... I cant take a risk of any major investment with Obama at the wheel of compromise.

[girl_interrupted]

67. rsmith6621 I'm with you!

I'd take him back in a NY minute! The Clinton years were good for my family as well as others and thats probably why he left office with the highest approval ratings of any president since WW2. If you make life better for people, they always remember it. And if you don't...they never forget.

[bigwillq]

65. No (nt)

[golfguru]

68. Clinton: The best president since FDR /

[That Guy 888]

69. No thanks I'm not interested in any more "Third Way" politicians n/t

[Hippo_Tron]

70. It would most likely send him to an early grave

8 years in that job is enough for anybody.

[superduperfarleft]
