I questioned that also, but just went with the given spelling. I presume that the word should have had a double e, as in preeminent, from the Latin, to go before, or literally, to send forth, ahead.

Mr. Clinton was delivering a wide-ranging speech to the 2002 World Congress on the Peaceful Reunification of China and World Peace in Sydney, for which he was reportedly paid $300,000.He also called for the world to become more integrated so that the benefits of globalization reached more of the world's poor.

WJC is the ultimate hypocrite, hands down, bar none. He says what is PC and rolls in the dough for saying it. He doesn't care about the poor of the world, but only cares about his silly bent thingy and ways to satisfy his twisted bizarre sexual appetites.

WJC keeps on amassing personal wealth for himself and he doesn't share it with anyone that I’m aware of, but he sure is not bashful about telling everyone else how to share their wealth with the world?The people that write this BS about X42 must have to bite their tongues in disgust each time they publish this crap?

America will lose her preeminence only if liberals and globalists give it away. We need to remember that we are a nation first. And our nation has a powerfull template called the Constitution. And we have capitalism as our economic system. Our nation is built on freedom and democracy. These are what made America powerful! And we must focus on America....so we can be a beacon of strength in the world. An example of how to do it right. Globalist dilweeds like Clinton would love to see our nation destroyed...our borders washed away...and our wealth spread around the world. That damn sure is the recipe for the destruction of this great nation that our founding fathers sacrificed to give us! So if you are a one world globalist, you may agree with Clinton. If you are a patriotic American, then his words sound like treason.

I just looked at my post and saw what you were talking about. I was so confused with the incorrect spelling in the article, that I just copied and pasted, and forgot to change the word form.

What you said.

He's getting very close to being an American hater, IMO. Or at the very least, encouraging it.

But, of course, he's not getting many job offers here in the US, so he has to broaden his appeal by speaking out AGAINST us, right?

Right on the button. To think this America-hater was once our
president. He evinces an unmitigated contempt for all we hold dear.

Job offers? Actually with all the graft, bribes, pardon selling, deals,
kickbacks, secret Swiss accounts.......does he really need a job?

Yes, I can just imagine President Al Gore patronizingly explaining to the American people how our anger at being attacked was "understandable" but that we must learn to "feel the pain" of the downtrodden who committed the acts. Therefore, the intelligent and compassionate thing to do is seek better dialogue with the people who committed these "regrettable" acts, blah, blah, blah...

I believe this is found in Matthew 21, or somewhere around there, where Jesus Christ is condemning the Pharisees.

The Chinese economy is growing,

Thanks to the technology transfers that happened DURING YOUR ADMINISTRATION.

the Indian economy is growing,

Thanks to the contract ENRON got through DURING YOUR ADMINISTRATION, which the media NEVER brings up in their endless talk of ENRON

and the European economy is growing together.

In some part because they don't need to spend as much on defense, or the war in Bosnia because your administration made sure we remained there in perpetuity.

He said Americans should ask how they'd like to be treated when they no longer have this pre-eminent position.

If we no longer have this preeminent position, it's in no small part due to your corruption Slick... Just shut up and leave, and take that "wife" of yours with you.

Former US president Bill Clinton today said America's era of pre-eminence would not last, with economies in Asia and Europe gaining strength.

This scumbag really hates America. In December of last year,in a speech to Georgetown University, he claimed 9/11 is our payback for slavery. This creature just wont go away......sorry about the old thread,but after Xlintons claim to fight for Israel when he didnt fight for the US, coupled with this old speech is noteworthy.
