Gingrich: Clinton Suffers From 'Victory Envy'

Ex-President Bill Clinton can't resist criticizing President Bush almost every chance he gets because he's suffering from an acute case of "victory envy."

So says former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, who discussed the phenomenon of the continually carping ex-president Wednesday with nationally syndicated radio host Sean Hannity.

"President Clinton suffers from a very bad case of victory envy," the one-time top Republican contended, before defining the term.

"Victory envy is when you're a loser and you didn't have any victories and now you see a guy who did it for real. And you realize that after all your puny Tomahawk missiles and your puny midnight or 2 a.m. attacks on the information building - I mean, all the different pathetic things that President Clinton did in foreign policy - suddenly you see what a real commander-in-chief and a real president is like."

"I think President Clinton can't take it," Gingrich explained. "I think he's being so critical and so harsh because it drives him a little nutty to see what a real commander-in-chief who really understands the presidency and who's really prepared to stand up and defend America is doing."

The architect of the GOP's 1994 congressional takeover differentiated between recent criticism of Bush leveled by ex-President Carter and Clinton's running commentary from the sidelines.

"Carter has consistently been for weakness and ineffectiveness in foreign policy his whole career," he told Hannity. "But there is some integrity there."

For Clinton, the former Speaker contended, "it's personal."

"He failed. He didn't get the job done. He didn't get rid of Saddam. He didn't get rid of bin Laden," Gingrich noted. "George W. Bush is doing the job and I think that it drives Bill Clinton nuts to see the difference between his performance and President Bush."

RIGHT ON....NEWT. X42 is feeling his OWN pain!

[freekitty]

Clinton and Clinton should suffer from "jail envy". That's where those two should be.

[Howlin]

He really does look bad, doesn't he?

[NeoCaveman]

Bill O'Reilly had on that blathering dimbulb, ZsaZsa Huffinton

...and I broke into song, right there at supper, singing "Green Acres" (since Z-Z and her sister had identical vocal qualities) - making my wife tell me to shut up so she could listen to Bill-O.

[WorkingClassFilth]

A perfect picture. May I steal it?

[Pukka Puck]

Clinton is the Lion of Haiti.

[Howlin]

Help yourself.

It says it all, doesn't it?

"She should find a man -- and vanish.."

That's a fact. I don't care how crude it may sound to some..........but I've seen for some time that what that woman needs is a good, stiff one.

...and I don't mean a drink, either.

Victory Envy, When Penis Envy Is Just No Longer Enough!

"President Clinton suffers from a very bad case of victory envy,"

Gee I thought Clintoon had his "victory" too. He was only Impeached but he was "victorious" over them in court(the Senate). Of course there was a rigged jury.

"He failed. He didn't get the job done. He didn't get rid of Saddam. He didn't get rid of bin Laden," Gingrich noted. "George W. Bush is doing the job and I think that it drives Bill Clinton nuts to see the difference between his performance and President Bush."

(I can't help it - I get weak-kneed when I see Clinton crawling in his own self-indulgent pitiful egomania. .

" While still in the planning stage, this room will focus on Bill and Hillary Clinton's early times, beginning with Bill's patronizing remarks before an NAACP audience, where he tearfully told of his early, "....painful childhood memories of black churches being burned as I was growing up in Arkansas...."

The TRUTH DETECTOR will show that the actual number of black churches that were targets of arson from the time he was born in Hope, Arkansas until he left the State as an adult, were........ZERO!!" Hillary told as big a whopper when she emotionally described to a class of young students how she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary, although he attained fame years after she was born!

This is the cone of fire created by an AC-130 Spectre ship's laser guided, computer controlled cannon. It is visible because every fifth shell is a tracer round. An AC-130 gunship was requested by the U.S. military in Mogadishu, Somalia, along with Bradley armored personnel carriers, for use in the October 2, 1993, raid to capture lieutenants of Mohamed Farrah Aidid. The request was turned down by then Secretary of Defense Les Aspin and President Bill Clinton. The result was Blackhawk Down and the needless death of eighteen of America's finest.

— from Carter’s book The Virtues of Aging:

When I was married at the age of 22 and relishing an active sex life, I assumed that this was a pleasure that my middle-aged parents rarely, if ever, enjoyed. Now, well past 70, Rosalynn and I have learned to accommodate each other’s desires more accurately and generously, and have never had a more complete and enjoyable relationship.

[Mister Baredog]

I'd like to see him in the Senate, Zell is retiring.

Boy that would sure shake up the place, could he win in Georgia?

[Lancey Howard]

Thanks for posting that great link about Jimmy Carter.
I never realized just how incompetent and dangerous and dishonorable that scumbag truly was, and is.
