But I never had a chance to deploy large numbers of troops to Afghanistan. -Bill Clinton

You were the Commander-in-Chief. Why not?

"No. I would like to say that I was a president who left America and the world better off when I left than when I started..."

Yeah, like leaving Bin Laden alive and well instead of killing him.

Thanks, Bill.

Channel surfing, I happened upon this little lovefest.  Just to see Clinton's face makes me ill, but I watched for a few minutes.  I thought they were going to start making out, Larry King's love for this man was so obvious.

I can't wait for Hillary to lose and for these two to slither off into the night.  But seeing BJ on TV (he's everywhere lately) he will, of course, never go away.  He will someday become Gloria Swanson in "Sunset Boulevard" a sad, pathetic person saying "I'm ready for my closeup" and fawning over old videos of himself.

He also almost got 43% of the popular vote in 1992, and almost 48% in 1996.

He almost left an economic collapse to his successor.

He almost destroyed National Security.

And, last but not least, he almost had sex with that woman.

Clinton wants to be remembered as, ".. I was a president who left America and the world better off when I left than when I started.."

Let's see, when you left office:

- All hell had just broken loose in the Middle East with the tragedy and horror of the 2000 Palestinian intafada.

- Chechnya? Oh yea. That part of the world was better off also.

- North Korea? Yup. They were better off (other than the 1,000,000 who had just  died from starvation and cold in the famine). Why? And at the same time, they'd gone right ahead under your watch and started building nuclear bombs anyway.

-  Iraq? 500,000 children died there from the UN sanctions. You had how many bombing campaigns in Iraq? 5 biggies. Oh, right - the UN Oil for Food program solved all those problems.

-  The survivors of the 800,000 Rwandans murdered in the 90 day genocide, in 1994, would see that "Never Again," actually meant that as that conflict moved next door to the DR Congo, another 4 to 4 1/2 million people would die in and from conflict - the largest loss of life in any single conflict since WWll, once again, the world would sit on it's hands and ignore the crisis.

- Shirtsleeves or long sleeves was the big question in Sierra Leone, Africa, posed to those caught by the murderous thugs. It meant, do you want your arm cut off above or below the elbow. Some 60,000 - 75,000 died there in that conflict of "Never Again." In one month in 1999, 6,000 civilians were slaughtered in one town. Never Again, had become again and again, under your watch.

- Meanwhile in Afghanistan, just a couple of years before "you almost got him," the Taliban took over in a void left behind with the Soviet withdrawal. Some 60,000 were slaughtered in yet another genocide. "Him," became very grounded in that new environment, from which "him" went public, declaring a Holy Jihad against the US and the West. From there, "him" comfortably planned for and trained his recruits for his successful US Embassy attacks, the attack on the Cole, the 9/11 attacks, and many more. Oh yes, you did drop support for the Unocal pipeline project across Afghanistan.

- And at home? Well Homestead, Florida was not fully recovered from Hurricane Andrew and the Midwest had not fully recovered from the great Mississippi floods of 1994. New Orleans was less safe than when you were elected - although the great exodus of humanity from the city continued unabated.

- The US was reeling from an historic cycle of greed - boom, then bust. Results? A historic stock market crash, a historic loss of wealth, thousands of companies would either go out of business or be forced to downsize as a result of poor leadership (you can thank the liberal economist Dean Baker of CEPR for that view), millions of Americans would loose their jobs and health benefits (becoming uninsured) as a result of the crash, and millions of Americans would loose their life savings and college education funds for their children.

- An immediate result of the economic collapse was the return of massive federal and state budget deficits for years to come. Annually, hundreds of billions of dollars in anticipated tax revenue dried up, and would take years to rebuild.

- The recommendations of the Al Gore Airline Security Commission would be ignored, because of an immediate and successful lobbying effort by the industry of the Democrat Party. Did anyone in the MSM ever consider what effect that may have had in assisting Bin Laden?

No, Mr. Clinton. When you came into office the economy was well on it's way to recovery from an economic recession. When you left office, you left with the economy entering a recession and the people staggering towards a dark hole. I was never one inclined to blame you personally for such radical swings in the economic fortune of our country and our people, but we certainly should not let you wallow in the self serving lie that you and the MSM have continued to indoctrinate us with. 

- NAFTA? Now, just how pleased are the workers in America with your leaving them with NAFTA. All we keep hearing from the media and the D's is that it is destroying America. What is your view, Mr. Ex?

Matthew. Sorry for the long comment. The guy just works me up. (;~>

What is it with Bill Clinton, does EVERYONE in the MSM want to bl*w him?!? My God sheeple! Wake up and smell the corruption!! Can you Clinton apologists name even ONE thing he did that was good, or even close to good as president?

"There are two types of people in this country; those who provide freedom and those who enjoy it." MM says...

The Dems still believe the "war on terror" is a law enforcement issue, and we just need to get OBL and all will be well. While getting OBL is important, it won't stop Islamic terrorism, hardly even slow it down.

The Right seems to have a better understanding that the WOT is a long idealogical war. But they still seem to think Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance hijacked by a few malcontents. Also terribly wrong.

And everybody knew that -- every serious student of the Constitution -- knew that the whole thing was bogus, and that they were just jumping on a terrible personal mistake I made."

Yeah, like PERJURY. A$$hole.

Larry:  So, Mr. President, have you read any good books lately?

Clinton:  As a matter of fact, Larry, I just started reading one.  It's a manuscript written by a Kathleen Willey ... I was over at Hillary's D.C. crib the other day and found it sitting on her coffee table . . . Fascinating reading ... Was nice of Kathleen to send over a copy for Hillary and me to read.

Clinton is such a joke, you almost got him??? not good enough,
buddy. What a surprise that Larry had you on, when is he going to have
your "husband" on the show??

You liberals all stick together!

"No. I would like to say that I was a president who left America and the world better off when I left than when I started, and that after I left office, I did my best to help organize people in -- as private citizens -- to do the same thing. And large numbers of people were better off when I stopped than when I started."

But of course the world was not better off and you organized nothing but pocket lining speaking engagements and history shows that you started nothing of note. Bill old boy, history is going to treat you very harshly, as it should.

Good God, how nauseating!  The media really thinks they're doing the Clintons a favor by fawning over Slick Willie and his filthy ball-and-chain.  But their pathetic pandering is just going to remind everyone just why we all hated the Clintons to begin with.  If the Dems want to lose, they're going to nominate that hag.  To borrow from Slick Kerry...bring it on!
