Bill Clinton Warns Nation of Danger of Electing a Former POW President
AZCONSERVATIVE ^ | 13 July 2008 | John Semmens

Posted on 07/16/2008 8:29:10 AM PDT by John Semmens

Former President Bill Clinton (D) warned voters against electing former prisoner-of-war Senator McCain president. “POWs are not like us,” Clinton observed. “They’ve been held captive in barbaric conditions, tortured and humiliated by this country’s enemies. How can they ever be objective enough to deal with our country’s enemies as president?”

Clinton argued that his evasion of military service saved him “from building up the prejudices against and hatreds for different cultures and political systems that could have compromised my ability to govern effectively. My judgment was untainted by any suffering and privation that could have biased my views. The same can’t be said for Senator McCain.”

Senator McCain called Clinton’s comments “a stunning revelation of the liberal mindset and as clear a distinction as we could want for what lies ahead if certain choices are made by voters in November.”

In related news, the Russian government threatened “dire consequences for the people of the Czech Republic” as a result of an agreement with the U.S. to establish a missile defense system in that country. “This move by the Czech government evinces a level of distrust that makes us want to strangle them in their sleep,” a statement from the Russian Foreign Ministry declared.

Bill Clinton became president with only 41% of the vote thanks to Ross Perot.

Bigger question: How does a draft dodging, adulterer, rapist, land dealing criminal, (what did I leave out?) become Commander-in-chief?

Lies and deceit. You know, the things he's good at.

1 that I can think of went all the way to 4-stars. Patton's son-in-law, John K. Watters, was captured by the Germans in North Africa & held for the duration. He was badly wounded in a botched rescue attempt by a mixed combat team sent by Patton himself (though Patton never admitted he knew is SIL was in that particular POW camp).

There were a couple NAVY POW's from Vietnam that made Admiral.

Yeah, I know, Pakistan, our friends, our ally, I've heard it all before, from Bush.

Seems to me the only things I've seen from Pakistan since 9/11 are throngs cheering in the street and obfuscation.

OBL will still be in power when Bush leaves office, and that is Bush's fault. If OBL is truly dead, then we need a body, and anybody who has a problem with that is our enemy and needs killing. That, after all, is how you win a war. Nothing else is acceptable.

““They’ve been held captive in barbaric conditions, tortured and humiliated by this country’s enemies. How can they ever be objective enough to deal with our country’s enemies as president?”

Bill Clinton and all the other liberals think that inexperience is the best qualification. The Peter Principle.

Funny. I’m surprised that Hilary hasn’t used Bill in this way to damage Obama.

I guess she’s still busy concocting her potion.
