Is Bill Clinton a Cain Mutiny Coward?
The New American ^ | 11 June 2012 | Selwyn Duke

If Dick Morris is right and Bill Clinton is like a solar panel — only warm and bright when the sun is shining — he has certainly been catching his share of rays recently with his defense of Mitt Romney’s record at Bain Capital. In case you missed it, the former President said in a CNN interview with Harvey Weinstein, “I don’t think we ought to get into the position where we say ‘This [Romney’s Bain endeavors] is bad work’ — this is good work”; he furthermore said that Romney had a “sterling business career” and “crosses the qualification threshold” to be commander-in-chief.

Well, well, something tells me that, were it not for Clinton’s fund-raising utility to the Obama administration, he’d be joining Cory Booker on the dead-to-us list.

After all, since the centerpiece of Barack Obama’s attack on Romney is that he is a “vulture capitalist, not a venture capitalist,” Clinton’s remarks help to cut the legs out from under the President’s re-election effort. The question is, though, why did he make them?

Some chalk it up to the notion that Clinton “always speaks his mind,” and his comments certainly seem like refreshing honesty. Here is, after all, Mr. Democrat himself saying flattering things about the presumptive GOP presidential nominee. Ah, what an American! He has risen above politics!

But has he?

Fred MacMurray writing his novel while listening to “Yellow Stain Blues”! I love it - how accurate.

Why, yes, yes he is.

All that and more.

Piece of dog excrement comes to mind, also.

Poor comparison. Queeg of “The Caine Mutiny” was a neurotic who got overwhelmed by events at the height of a typhoon. That does not fit Clinton, who is in control in public all of the time.

Both he and his disgusting wife should both be in prison for the many, many crimes committed while he was in our White House. To think that this pig is in any way a spokesman for a political party shows just how low the democrats’ standards of decency have sunk.

I got the impression the comparison was being made with the cowardly character of Lt Keefer.

Nope.

He is just a plain old draft dodging, woman abusing, cowardly, sneaky, lying weasel.

If you’re going to make the comparison, at least take the time to learn how to spell the name of the ship in question.

And here's something else that bothers me. In his piece, this author mentions the “obscure reference” of referring to the film “The Caine Mutiny”. Obscure? A film staring some of the biggest names in Hollywood that was adapted from the riveting, best selling, Pulitzer Prize winning novel?

The analogy was to Lt. Keefer in the film, not Queeg. Queeg was analogized to Obama.

Reading the article sometimes helps. Just sayin’.

During the primaries, I had as my tagline: Let’s have a Cain Mutiny. Not one freeper got it. Not one. Americans - including the conservatives - do not read older, popular novels or watch classic films.

The Clintons are ambitious criminals, which puts them a step above Obama who is an actual enemy of the Republic.
