When asked about U.S. foreign policy at an economic summit on Wednesday in Washington, D.C., former Democratic President Bill Clinton said the ongoing unrest between Ukraine and Russia was not good but also not dire, stressing that Russia’s aggression was nothing new.

“It’s not the end of the world,” Clinton told PBS anchor Gwen Ifill. “They invaded Georgia, too, and took part of that.”

“I don’t agree with this and I think we have to be firm against it, but it’s not the end of the world,” Clinton said.

Clinton made his remarks at an event hosted by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation dubbed “Our Economic Future,” which also featured interviews with New Jersey Republican Governor Chris Christie and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). …

Yeah; “it’s not the end of the world” because it did not affect William Jefferson Clinton personally. By all means, keep proving that you did need to be removed from office and the damage you did was sadly not mitigated . . .

More “wisdom” from the man who just doesn’t know how to exit the stage left.

You could fit all his ‘wisdom’ on the head of a pin and have enough room for a new Cadillac

Well, the Mongols, Tartars, and NAZIs weren’t then end of the world either, unless you were one of the millions killed by them.

“They invaded Georgia, too, and took part of that.”

The rally call then heard in all Walmarts in Alabama: “I need ammo, I heard the Ruskies took Geargia but they are not going to take Alabama without a fight.”

Keep speaking out, Bubba, and remind us why we don’t need the Clintons around the White House again.

He is whom the libs, the press, are going to as there is no one left.

As Benghazi unfolds Hillary, BO, jay carney, who should otherwise be long gone, maybe they’re done. No one can trust them and the press is trying to prop them up but no one is watching

It must be difficult to put together a show even

Elizabeth warren isn’t one of them. They don’t use her for their shows. They have no one to run for pres. Even THEY know Biden is ridiculous

So they drag out THIS creature.

He has a skin condition even makeup can’t cover. His nose is so bulbous that John Stewart should be parodying him as some kind of wc fields character.

And he slurs his words

This is all they’ve got for an old statesman as Bo’s foreign policy crumbles into a hashtag ad run by the loathe, propped up first woman

They dragged out Monica lewinsky almost inexplicably and NO one can see through and figure that out

It was to bring back Bill. He’s Hillary’s new campaign prop. ML was supposed to make him pervertedly appealing, as we are bombarded daily with perversion

When can we simply make fun of these two old caricatures of depravity and grift?

Clinton longs for the days of the old Soviet Union and of course Georgia and Ukraine were part of it.
