Rep. Weiner: Clinton Serious About 'Fight and Die' Pledge

Congressman Anthony Weiner, D-NY, predicted Sunday that Bill Clinton might actually make "alliyah" and join the Israeli army to fight terrorists, backing up a pledge he made last Monday when he told a Toronto audience that he was prepared to "grab a rifle, get in a trench and fight and die" if the Jewish state was attacked.

"If he says he's willing to go over there and die; look, a lot of people are very frustrated now," Weiner told WABC Radio's Steve Malzberg. "And when Israel has had its wars there have always been thousands of Americans that have made alliyah to go participate in that war. Maybe Bill Clinton will be one of them."

The Brooklyn Democrat said he didn't think the ex-president was merely pandering to the largely Jewish crowd at Toronto's Hadassah-Wizo Organization when he made the "fight and die" pledge.

"I don't know what his need would be to pander to anyone right now," he told WABC. "There could be no doubt that Bill Clinton devoted more time, energy and effort to matters relating to Israel and he felt personally betrayed by the way the peace process fell apart.

"He's obviously very dedicated and committed to it," Weiner added.

OH REALLY? WELL WE CAN SEND HIM A ONE WAY TICKET TO GAZA RIGHT NOW! WE CAN ALL WATCH THE DRAFT DODGER RUN BACK WITH HIS TAIL BETWEEN HIS LEGS!

[APBaer]

"RUN BACK WITH HIS TAIL BETWEEN HIS LEGS!"

Oh, please!!
You're assuming that after a few days with the Slickster his own fellows wouldn't frag him.

Congressman Anthony Weiner, D-NY, predicted Sunday
that Bill Clinton might actually...join the Israeli army

Yes, and monkeys might actually fly out my ass.
 

[per loin]

If Clinton had paid a bit more attention to military matters while he was commander in chief, he might understand that we've moved a ways past trench warfare.

[spectre]

Of course, his five Secret Service agents would tend to make Clinton's foxhole a bit crowded.

[dts32041]

He didn't say what state he would die for isreal or irag, my money he would die for iraq.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Too bad he couldn't make the committment to fight for his own country when called.

[okie01]

"And when Israel has had its wars there have always been thousands of Americans that have made alliyah to go participate in that war. Maybe Bill Clinton will be one of them."

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MosesKnows]

grab a rifle, get in a trench

Would you trust this fellow in a trench? Would you trust this fellow in a trench...with you?

[Cachelot]

Hysterical. But has anyone actually reflected on the fact that if this b*gger manages to get into the idf for a spell, he can collect an Israeli citizenship? Hmmm?

God only knows what he could do with that.

[GUIDO]

This guy made himself look even dumber than he already is by even responding to clinton dumb ass remark. It would have been better to just ignore it like we all did.

[wattsmag2]

BULLSH!T!!

[syriacus]

I'm trying to remember which Democrat said a while back that Bush was too biased toward Israel when he sought peace between Israel and the PLO. They said Bush should be more neutral, if he expected to help the situation.

[capt. norm]

Liberals are so delusional.

For them, reality is like a theme park they might visit. Otherwise, it doesn't exist.

Well, talk is cheap as they say. I doubt that the Israeli army would want to waste time training his sorry ass. BTW, I would assume that Private Clinton would also have to leave his USSS body guards behind.

[Capt. Tom]

"I don't know what his need would be to pander to anyone right now," he told WABC.

Have you heard of fund raising for the party. _Tom

[laconic]

As I said before, Talk's Cheap. And its real cheap when your'e a 55 year old ex-president who wouldn't lift a finger to serve his own country when he had a chance speaking BS before a group of rich simpletons who would believe anything they were told if it came from a liberal (it would be truly horrible for them to realize that the only significant support worldwide for Israel outside the Jewish community comes from evangelical Americans). I doubt Congressman Anthony Weiner ever saw anything to do with the military, other than on TV; the same as his "hero", the Draft Dodger in Chief, Mr. Clinton.

I will not say that Clinton enjoys seeing many people killed by terrorists over there, though who knows what is really in his mind. However, does this congress critter think we are so stupid as to actually believe this garbage? This guy needs to get a life.

[syriacus]

Do his Secret Service agents have to go into the trenches with him?

[KarlInOhio]

Reasons why the sinkmeister won't go:

1. He said the "Jewish State" and obviously, Israel isn't one of the 50 states.
2. He said he would get in a trench. The Israelis aren't starting any trench warfare, so there isn't anywhere for him to go.
3. During a war, "over there" is defined as Moscow and Oxford.
4. Wanted to grab a rifle, but the Israeli army insisted on giving him and "Assault" rifle, and that just wouldn't do.
5. Offer only applies to Iraqi army. Attacks by Iraqi Republic Guard, Iraqi navy, Iraqi air force, Palestinians, Saudis, Syrians, Egyptians, Jordanians, Hamas, Hezzballah, etc. do not count.
6. Exact location of Clinton Defense Line not stated. Likely location somewhere near Little Rock.
7. Did you say Israeli army? I thought you meant join the attacking Iraqi army.

Looks like the Arabs finally may have stumbled onto a viable plan to defeat the Israeli army...

[parsifal]

Considering the way that Clinton used,threw away, and dishonored his young jewish intern, Monica Lewinski, he might not be too popular among young Israeli men. Who knows. Are there any polls about him among the Israelis? parsy.

[dirtboy]

grab a rifle, get in a trench and fight and die

I think they heard him wrong - he probably said grab someone's wife, do the wench, blame the right and lie...

[JZoback]

Just goes to show you how naive he thinks his constitutes really are. He can't possibly believe what he said, but he thinks the democratic voters will?

How can anyone vote for this guy, when he thinks we are so stupid?

[dennisw]

What garbage. Who is naive enough to conned by this BS?

[YOMO]

Maybe Bill Clinton will be one of them." "I don't know what his need would be to pander to anyone right now," he told WABC. "He's obviously very dedicated and committed to it," Weiner added..................

Several points: 1. Teanslation fight terrorists ( right behind the Government provided Secret Service Agents assigned to him. 2. What possible military leadership could that Draft Dodging example of American honesty bring to the table? 3. Could his pandering be possibly related to fund raising needs of Mrs. x42? 4. He changed his mind yet again and now wants to put down a steady foot.

[areafiftyone]

You are probably right. I have this wierd feeling that he is going to run for governor of New York in 2008.

[parsifal]

IDF Recruiter: Bill, before you can go fight you first got to make Alliyah.

Bill: I can sure do that. Where is she? Just point me in her direction.

[jws3sticks]

"fight and die"

For BillieBlobSlick, what does "fight" and what does "die" actually mean? He'll do one heck of a deposition on why he never said that, regardless of having a trench or not.

[F16Fighter]

Who's @ss is Rep. Weimer kissing with this crack-cocaine induced statement? Wouldn't be Hillary's would it??

[Alouette]

he probably said grab someone's wife, do the wench, blame the right and lie...

You got it!

[Renegade]

What do you expect from a Demorat named WEINER?????

[AmishDude]

You know, this post will probably (deservedly) get pulled, but I have to say it:

If he says he's willing to go over there and die;

there's nothing that says he has to do any travelling to accomplish that most noble goal.

[Bigg Red]

Too bad he couldn't make the committment to fight for his own country when called.

Too bad he couldn't make the committment to protect and strengthen his own country when elected.

[Rebelbase]

LMAO!!!!!!!

[areafiftyone]

Would you trust this fellow in a trench...with you?

I wouldn't trust this fellow in a "Trench Coat"! Maybe he should wear one in the trenches and he can flash the palestinians and they can see how "bent" he really is.

[tall_tex]

Someone with skills that exceed mine on the computer, should E this to Rush. Will be a hoot to hear his take on this tomorrow.

[linn37]

maybe this little stooge will join him,he can carry the beer and porn mags. Has there ever been a man more appropriately named?

[Bigg Red]

We all know what a clymer and a liar this disgusting excuse for a human being is. What is truly shocking to me is that the audience actually applauded this pandering. Are they that stupid?

[Bigg Red]

Maybe it depends on what the meaning of "fight and die" is.

[mlocher]

he told a Toronto audience that he was prepared to "grab a rifle, get in a trench and fight and die" if the Jewish state was attacked

where was he 10 years ago?

[chainsaw]

Promises, Promises, Promises

We can only hope.

He refuses to fight for America, but will die for Israel??

People that belive that is the reason why he became president in the first place. It's Just one big lie after another.

[mlocher]

Congressman Anthony Weiner, D-NY, predicted Sunday that Bill Clinton might actually...join the Israeli army

i am not clear on this one, but is it treason for an american citizen to join an army other than the united states army? (just looking for ways to have him ostracized...)

[areafiftyone]

You gotta remember that the Jewish population in the U.S. is mostly democratic. They vote democrat. They voted "big time" for Clinton for his two terms. They voted for Gore/Lieberman in 2000 and they will probably vote for the Democratic runner in 2004. Bush will not get much of the Jewish vote unless some miracle happens in the Middle East with the peace process.

[sheik yerbouty]

Beelzebubba can be posted to Gehenna!

[mlocher]

He said he would get in a trench. The Israelis aren't starting any trench warfare, so there isn't anywhere for him to go

there is always the latrine trench we could lead him to...

[jocko12]

MUST BE A CASE OF ADVANCED AIDS!!!!

[proudofthesouth]

Yea. He learned from Al Gore how to fight in a war.

[gcruse]

i am not clear on this one, but is it treason for an american citizen
to join an army other than the united states army? (just looking
for ways to have him ostracized...)

Of course not.  Joining an enemy army engaged
in war against the US would be, but Clinton would
at most be risking citizenship.

[Gumption]

Your post reads like the Starr Report ... the non dirty parts anyway.

Seriously your post is right on. The sick sob's legacy will always be "the spinster", "the parser", the talented liar, or skillful deceiver. And that's to his biggest fans.
