Bill Clinton Receives Larger Applause Than Obama At Byrd Memorial

Clinton, though a scumbag like Obama, was at least entertaining in a slipperly hick kind of way. Obama is the joyless, calculating, ideologue.

The housing bubble got a foot hold under Clinton as well.

Obama’s definition of leadership;
1 stamp feet and say i won and i want.
2 point fingers and never accept blame.
3 keep actual work to a minimum.

I’d actually prefer either his wife or him to Obama.

Clinton was more worried about his legacy than his ideology ... which meant that he cared what the American people thought of him. This left him open to being pushed around by Gingrich. Bill Clinton wouldn’t have shoved Obamacare down our throats at the expense of his popularity.

Hillary wouldn’t be much better on domestic policy than Obama ... but she has the stones for international gamesmanship. Obama doesn’t.

Put in Clinton. Kick out Bozo. We can at least meet at some middle ground with Clinton (if we’re willing to look past his whore mongering). We *can’t* look past Barry’s Commie-whoring! It will destroy America!

Never thought I would miss Clinton at all. He was such a slimeball, but he had his moments (as much as slimeballs can have “moment”). Barry...just needs to jump off a bridge!

I think Hillary Clinton would have been a better choice over Obama. I know it’s not saying much but at least she’s an American.

Hillary has the same goals as Obama, but she does things in a more careful, methodical way.

Obama's approval ratings are diving and his and his thugs' ineptitude will likely result in either a majority for the Repubs in Congress or a huge cut of the current majority's margin.

With Hillary and her lawyers the public would not be on to the liberals' game as much. Her poll numbers would be much higher and her power would last much longer. She would be far more dangerous for the long term IMO and I have always felt so.

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

The brilliance of Obama is not in leadership but rather in being absent. He can then not get blamed for anything and can use the blanks for his adoring, hypnotized flock to fill in as they want with wonderful delusions of his grandeur. Hopefully the hypnotic spell will wear off and many will wake up to the horror of him before it is too late.

Pray for people, that The LORD will break the hypnotic spell over them with His power. If He does it will be by His pure grace because as a country we do not deserve it.

The Clintons are basically Obama light.

Remember, HELLry was mentored directly by Alinsky - OBOZO merely taught Alinsky’s book. She is just as radical as he is but does a better job of hiding it.

You forget that he and his wife tried as hard as they could to get Hillary-care.

The only reason the Clintons backed off on a hard-line approach similar to Obama's was the Repub takeover in '94.

Their ideology is the same as Obama's. The "legacy" emphasis came later after impeachment.

Putting things in perspective - Obama, Bill Clinton & Hillary Clinton are all a disgrace to our country.

Obama is a totally useless Socialist - willing to bring down our country as fast as he can.

Bill & Hillary stole things from our White House, treated our military like servants, allowed technology to be sold to the communists. Hillary & her daughter used tax payer money to tour the world.

All three of them used their positions to enrich themselves & displayed abhorent behavior in the White House.

I hope that history will record the real truth about them.

They should all be shunned as pariahas.

I never thought I’d miss Bill Clinton

What if, after 8 yrs of Palin, we get a rebound liberal who's even worse than Obama? Ten years from now, could we hear ourselves saying, "I never thought I'd miss Obama?" Maybe it's not the person we should oppose, but the process that brings him to power and the media that enables him. In the end, it all boils down to the media. If the majority of the people knew what we who follow the alternative media know, Obama would never have been elected to any office in this country.

“Clinton, though a scumbag like Obama, was at least entertaining in a slipperly hick kind of way. Obama is the joyless, calculating, ideologue.”

That’s it in a nutshell. Obama the intellectual snob looking down his nose at the “little” people.

Billy would sidle up to ya’ put his arm around ya’, sell ya’ some snake oil, date your wife, and leave ya’ smilin’!

Correct. And their slimy appointee at HUD (Cuomo) ordered that FNM/FRE increase the number of sub-primes the taxpayer had to support.

The Clintons are at the root of many of our current problems. How easily people forget.

And make no mistake...Hillary is way more conniving than Obama. Obama is not skilled at hiding what he is doing because he has no managerial skills and fumbles a lot. The only thing he can do really is talk. She is not a good speaker, but is a much more adept tactician.
