Why wouldn’t he? He carried WV twice. People there will always adore a clinton and a Byrd.

What show was this? American Idolatry?

Even though it was Robert Byrd - a memorial service should have a certain decorum.

But then - these are Dems;0

Clinton was clever enough to draft the great RWR, the economy stayed healthy and people gave him a pass.

Obama will enjoy no such goodwill.

I don't miss the jerk in the least.

His foolish leadership got us 9/11.

And his wife would be worse in the WH than Obama.

As much as I detest Bubba Clinton, he had more leadership ability than Obama.

Not much but anything is more than Obama has.

That's a pretty tall order.

Seems to me that your are trying to differentiate between a fat round turd and a round fat turd!

Thats because clinton was part of the filibuster against Civil Rights. Thats why he was applauded. I take it the audience was full of people who left their sheets at home.
