Former President Bill Clinton told an audience that POWs often suffer "anger" long after the incident - which some took as a swipe at Vietnam vet and presumptive GOP presidential nominee John McCain.

Former President Bill Clinton told an audience that POWs often suffer “anger” long after the incident....
So do republicans long after you’ve gone Bubba!....
LOL. Held captive by Hillary.
A little anger is a good thing. What would BJ Klintoon know about being a POW anyway? He spent his “time” in a tree..................................
I think at last count well over forty folks close to the Clintons at one time or another turned up dead.
The most outstanding example of this is Ron Brown. His military aircraft somehow plunged into a hillside in Croatia.
We know today that Brown was thinking of working with the special prosecutor to save his son from a prison term.
The Clintons knew this too.
Remember the tape of Bill leaving Brown’s funeral laughing uncontrollably? When Rush had his tv program he ran it again and again while the MSM scolded him.
Read RON BROWN’S BODY. It is a great book.
Does he have any opinion on residual anger among rape victims?
I was wondering how long it would take for Bubba to lash out in anger after be held POW (patsy of wife) and shunted off to hick towns for stump speeches during the primaries.
I am probably being overly clever here, but methinks Bubba might be working to solidify McCain’s conservative base. No way he wants Obama to win, unless of course he really wanted Hillary to LOSE and an Obama win would kill her aspirations.
Hmmm...I have clevered myself into a corner it seems.
About 25. Google “Arkanicide”.
He has absolutely NO shame. I may not be a mclame supporter, but I do respect his service and time in the “Hilton”.
Folks don’t fall for this attack by Bil Clinton.
Dick Morris has said this is one of their long time tactics. It causes a distraction and Republicans spend a week dealing with Bill Clinton and ignore Obama for a week.
The anger should be directed at Obama.
Why?
He has not apologized for his campaigners, (Bill Clinton) attack on Sen. John McCain’s war record.
By focusing on Obama instead of Clinton it draws a contrast between Obama’s lack of service and sacrifice for this country and Sen. John McCain’s.
How about a pervert rapist, which he is.
Seems to me that Bill is failing at everything lately. Heck, the plane they sent to help Obama ended up safely landing. Fail fail fail. Unfortunately, in your scenario that you proffer, there is a good chance he may fail in helping McCain.
The man is a pig.
The former Pres should stay home and stop embarrassing his family.
Our very own FReeper Alamo-Girl is the original authority on this subject. Her famous "Downside Legacy at 2 Degrees of Bill Clinton" site is permanently linked on the FR homepage.
I doubt POWs, Vets in general and most Americans for that matter will take kindly to his broad brush trashing of people in uniform who served their country for a time by being held as prisoners of war.
Best way to handle BillyBoy, get out of his way and let him go.
This is rich, a draft dodger gives his opinion about a war hero. Is this scrappleface?
Webb, a decorated former Marine officer, hammered Allen and Bush over the unpopular war in Iraq while wearing his sons old combat boots on the campaign trail. It seems the president may have some lingering resentment.
At a private reception held at the White House with newly elected lawmakers shortly after the election, Bush asked Webb how his son, a Marine lance corporal serving in Iraq, was doing.
Webb responded that he really wanted to see his son brought back home, said a person who heard about the exchange from Webb.
I didnt ask you that, I asked how hes doing, Bush retorted, according to the source.
Webb confessed that he was so angered by this that he was tempted to slug the commander-in-chief, reported the source, but of course didnt. Its safe to say, however, that Bush and Webb wont be taking any overseas trips together anytime soon.
Hey Webb. Your hair looks like a chia pet!
