Bill Clinton didn't botch this joke (a former Prez jokes about terrorism!)

Now Bill Clinton is joking about War on Terror. John Kerry is not the only Democrat joking about the war on terror these days. News director Jon Gibson, KKNT-AM in Phoenix, played the audio tape of Bill Clinton speaking these words on the campus of Arizona State University last night:

“Republicans will have you believe that Democrats will tax you into the poor house and that you’ll meet a terrorist around every corner and trip over an illegal immigrant on the way there.”

Clinton, unlike Kerry, did not “botch” the joke because the assembled crowd roared with laughter. Terrorism warnings are something to laugh about for this crowd. But they are “serious” about the war on terror and want the American people to trust them to fight it effectively.

Why one would want the likes of Clinton and Kerry to return to power in Washington is baffling in these, the most dangerous and consequential times for civilized societies in the face of Islamic terror aimed at establishing a global caliphate. J. James Estrada 11 4 06

History will judge the Clinton presidency harshly. The Gingrich led Republican Revolution of 1994 was a harsh rebuke to the Hillary Health Care Plan and the generally leftist hubris that the Clintonistas immediately brought to the WH. Remember the very, very, very first piece of legislation that the odious Clintons pushed immediately after inauguration? It was gays in the military. They didn't even consult with the joint chiefs or anyone. It was pure Hillary.

Then she had the secret meetings with health care industry officials and other Uber-Democrats in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. These private meetings (no one from the public was invited) were ruled (I forgot which court) illegal.

She has learned, though, and is now much more dangerous when she was willing to put her policies out into the public forum. Like Bill, she now conceals her true (socialist/leftist/femininst) beliefs in order to gain power (the only thing that turns on this Ice-Queen).

I guess he thought all the people that died during his reign as fornicator and chief was a big joke too.

Some joke. It's about as tasteless as the one he told back at one of those press dinners. His comment went something like this: "You all heard that Rush Limbaugh came to the defense of Janet Reno the other day? Yeah, but that was only because she was being attacked by a black man" (John Conyers at hearings on Waco). It didn't get many laughs then either.

I don't get the joke or the humor. With them in power, his statement is a fact. The only humor I find is in what you posted. Like you, just who is he trying to kid with the modern democracy crack? Just when ya think he can't sink any lower....Bubba's never disappointn'.

About as much a joke as his oral sex is not sex comments.

Democrats will tax you into the poor house and that you’ll meet a terrorist around every corner and trip over an illegal immigrant on the way there, and if elected to office we will stonewall Republican attempts to fix the problems.

Rush actually read the so-called joke. I don't know if he mentioned what cripplecreek said in #3:
... Iraq was a moderate muslim Democracy until we attacked.

Islamic terrorists, taken all together, are not a very powerful bunch, and the idea that they could bring our society and economy to a halt does seem far fetched

Of course, how could I forget the exciting, booming economy that followed for months after 9/11?!? How foolish of me. </sarcasm-in-the-extreme>

For someone who killed more Americans than terrorists, I guess that joke is pretty funny!

The terrorist hiding around the corner may be one of the terrorists Clinton gave a pardon to.

Iraq under Saddam Hussein was like any other moderate democracy where ten to twenty thousand innocent people a year are killed by the government, and where the incumbent president gets 100% of the vote in elections.
