The performance of ABC's Flunky Smurf may even have surpassed that of NBC's Tim Russert on "Meet Mario Cuomo's Ex-Lawyer".   He did everything but give President Clinton a backrub while repeating Alan Greenspan's gush, something to the effect that he was "the best Republican President we've had in a while."

He writes that “as a result of this, history may remember Bill Clinton
as the philanthropist who happened to be President.” You okay with that?

Says Stephanopoulous with a gleam in his eye, as he puts his right hand on Clinton's thigh.

Clinton was the champion of.. the art of complacency in the face of genocide, civil war and the developing rampant HIV/Aids pandemic in Africa and Indonesia.

Where better to go, to get an honest accounting, then the far left editorial world, itself. David Corn, Washington editor of The Nation, in a 2002 piece titled  Too little, too late - How many times is Bill Clinton going to apologize to Africa?   addressed the facts of how disappointing Clinton was as president, and questioned if he would accomplish much in the afterlife. (my bold):

.. When he [Clinton] had the chance -- and the power -- to address the devastation in Africa, he took a pass. Why didn’t he figure out the U.S. share for an anti-AIDS crusade and add it to his budget? It would surely be illuminating and instructive if he explained this. Might he claim that, as with the Rwanda genocide, he was not fully informed of the horror? A cynical guess might be this: AIDS in Africa, it doesn’t poll well.

Responding to Clinton’s profession of regret, a friend of mine who works for a church organization in Washington that lobbies for more foreign aid says that "from a religious perspective, contrition is positive and can be useful." Perhaps. I’m waiting to see how much time Clinton actually devotes to the AIDS nightmare in Africa. Will he spend his days delivering $250,000-a-pop speeches, or use them to cajole leaders of the industrialized nations to kick in more money? In and of itself, his contrition means little. It is easy to be sorry once you’re out of office.

At the Barcelona conference, Clinton told the audience, "I call on you to hold me accountable" to his commitment to work on global AIDS. That sure sounded like something a politician would say. If he knew he was sincere about that commitment, why would he need anyone to keep the pressure on?

I submit that the only thing which keeps Bill Clinton sincere about any commitment, is the immense pleasure he gets from seeing others stuff his ego. And Stephanopoulos filled that role, once again.

I am just surprised that BillC didn't response to GeorgeS's last question (If Hillary wins, do you want an office in the West Wing?) with the obvious one:

If Hillary wins, do you want an office in the West Wing?

Does anyone really care about the truth any more?

Poor ol George Steph has been acting strangely and saying seriously odd things of late, so one must wonder what is going on. He seems to have lost what little self respect he had. No one on the planet should be more aware of the utter corruption of the Clintons, and yet he panders to them. I suppose all agitprop "journalists" must ultimately scrap and bow before their handlers, but to watch this young lad do so before the most corrupt human being who ever served as President of the United States is a sad sight to behold, indeed.

“How Bill Clinton, Ira Magaziner, and a team of management consultants are creating new markets, reinventing philanthropy -- and trying to save the world.”

Now there's a name from the past, Ira Magaziner. Ira was intrumental in assisting with the radicalization of the Brown University curriculum in the late 1960's,laying the groundwork for it's radical left wing stances of today (that is except of course the acceptance millions of dollars in city tax breaks every year).

 A "student activist", this jerk was also responsible for fanning the flames of racial tentions on the East Side of Providence during the Providence race riots of 1969-1970. A real sport this Ira.  

But he is best known around these parts as the architect of the "Greenhouse Compact", a "business initative" to incubate businesses and export their ideas and or goods abroad.  It was nothing more that a shallow attempt to establish a bunch of freeloaders a living for life on the public dime.

Of course the "initiative" was to be started with an increase in state income taxes and fees. It was too much even for liberal RI; his "dream" went down in flames, rejected by the plebians 4 to 1 in a 1984 referendum.

Now he's "reinventing" philanthropy with the great giver of bodily fluids himself. Wonderful. The Mag man is and always will be a socialist to the bone. No wonder why the Clintons love this guy so much.
