Bill Clinton blasts repukes for their hypocritical hissyfit over the MoveOn.org ad, telling Anderson Cooper their "feigned outrage" was completely "disingenuous." Bonus: he did not have to use a phonetic pronunciation guide.
COOPER: Focus on that as opposed to focus on what’s really happening ….Yeah!
CLINTON: Oh yeah. That’s right. “I don’t have to deal with Iraq. I don’t have to tell anybody what I’m going to do. Everything we do in Iraq is obviously right because they said this about Petraeus,” as if it was the only issue in the whole wide world.
Come on, these are the people that ran a television ad in Georgia with Max Cleland, who lost half his body in Vietnam, in the same ad with Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. That’s what Republicans do. And the person that rode into the Senate on that ad was there voting to condemn the Democrats over the Petraeus ad. I mean, these are the people that funded the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. The President appointed one of the principal funders of the Swift Boat ads to be an ambassador, but they’re really about the Petraeus one. It’s okay to question John Kerry’s patriotism on the blatantly dishonest claims by people that didn’t know what they are talking about. So it was just bait and switch. It was “Oh, thank goodness, I can take this little word here and ignore what we’ve done in Iraq and what we’re gonna do and the outrageous way that we’re gained political power by smearing John Kerry.” Same crowd that smeared John McCain, another war hero, saying he had a black baby, because he adopted a child from Bangladesh.

I really do not like his wife and heaven knows I disagreed with a fair amount of what Bill did as president--apart from his Monica problems--but he sure makes the current occupant of the White House and a large number of Democrats in the House and Senate look like the pipsqueaks they are.
weird. i just had the HUGEST wave of wishful nostalgic desire for the Clinton White House. I look so very ardently forward to having another occupant. this last 6 almost 7 years has been nothing less than abusive. i'm tired of the idiocy, the incompetence, the abuse, the disregard of laws, rights and simple decency. i'm tired of fighting this crap piece and his crap piece buddies and the constant feeling and reality of really getting nowhere in the fight. i wish i could go to sleep and wake up and it's January, 2009. thanks for this post. thanks for the site.
