2. Nobody is saying he doesn't have the right to criticize Obama
Edited on Wed Jan-23-08 08:11 PM by Seen the light
We're saying he doesn't have the right to LIE about Obama. Slight difference don't you think?

8. Almost half of the American Public voted to re-elect Bush. Does that mean
they're right in their assessment of his performance?

10. This is still our country ...
And we must be smart about how we approach its politics.

This country is vast and diverse in points of view and beliefs. We need to progressively move this country forward.

We cannot move unless we move together.

11. not to draw too tight of a conclusion, but...
Any and all of the good Bill accomplished has just exactly WHAT TO DO WITH HILLARY and her abilities. Seems like Bill found her lacking in some deeply personal way (which then exposed his own weaknesses as a person). "Not really what I want...but what I want for all of you."....And I would really like to live in that big white house again!

12. Bill is being a turd
and he should let his wife run things.

Generally the "First Lady" does not get involved to this extent but I guess for the "First Man" it is different.

15. Generally the wife of a candidate isn't this much of an asset. If she were, she'd get
more play.

16. Fun fact: Bill Clinton and Al Gore actually made the Federal government smaller.
Edited on Wed Jan-23-08 08:31 PM by Perry Logan
The only other modern President to make the government smaller was Harry Truman.

20. Uh huh
Thats why wealth distribution was so great after 8 yrs of Bill.



As a member of the bottom 60%, I'd like to sincerely thank Bill for letting us have 4.3% of the wild booming 90's. Now that us 60%ers have shrunk to 3% of America's wealth I find myself really missing Bill. NOT!
